Rent A Room

Cape Town's rental market has its own character shaped by the city's economy and who moves here. Students flood the Southern Suburbs during enrolment season; young professionals chase jobs in the CBD and tech hubs in the northern suburbs; families split between Constantia schools and the Atlantic Seaboard lifestyle; international workers rotate through temporary contracts. Rent A Room sits within this fluid population, where demand spikes in January and peaks again in July, where furnished apartments command premiums over unfurnished, and where location relative to MyCiTi routes and office parks matters as much as square metreage. The rental side of the market moves faster than sales — deposits, lease paperwork, and tenancy agreements need speed and clarity.
