Although we are well into the first quarter of 2017, its always a good time to look back at last year’s figures, and it makes for very encouraging reading. We’ll look at sales for the first nine months of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015. We’ll break it down for you, but before we do, just know that sales were up by 24.29 percent in this period in 2016 compared to the same period in 2015.
Here are the highlights:
The suburbs
When we break down the sales per suburb, Plettenberg Bay leads the way with 55 sales in the first nine months of 2016 (46 in 2015), followed by Keurbooms with 53 (31 in 2015), and Seaside Longships 52 (46 in 2015).

Bowtie causing an upmarket stir
Says Helen Ward, director of Helen Melon Properties, “Last year was a great year for the region in terms of property sales and values. By all accounts, we don’t foresee this growth slowing down any time soon. The encouraging element of this increase is that many people are relocating to the Western Cape and buying homes as their main residence.”
