Looking for a Retirement Home in Pretoria? We have the Answers

Category Property News

Pretoria is well-known as being the administrative seat of government, as well as honing competitive commercial and tertiary education sectors. It is an amalgamation of families, students, professionals and retirees who come together to create a thriving life and ever-transforming society.

Alongside this, Pretoria's residential market has strengthened and expanded to accommodate a perennial demand for homes from buyers and tenants.

In particular and rather unexpectedly, the development of retirement homes is now widespread in the city as an influx of retirees flock here to spend their stress-free years. There are several reasons for this increase, however, Pretoria’s ability to create and sustain a high quality of life is pegged as its ultimate draw-card. 

The city is synonymous with exceptional municipal governance that has allowed it to establish and retain excellent infrastructure and consistent service delivery. In 2014, the high standard of living and city management came to light when it was voted as the best place to live in the province by the Gauteng City-Region survey.

The above factors have led to retirees choosing Pretoria as their preferred destination, and in the process, this has given rise to a diverse portfolio of new retirement estates as developers and investors monopolise on an active buyer and rental market.

Wider Choice, Greater Responsibility

If the residential retirement market could be summed up, it would be “choice”. Buyers now have the advantage of choice when they are looking for homes in the city, thus providing them with a number of options at their disposal. However, with this comes the responsibility to make the right decision without feeling overwhelmed.
