Johannesburg areas where Sellers are still achieving strong prices in the current market Not all Johannesburg suburbs are performing equally in the current market. Sellers are generally seeing the strongest results in areas where buyer demand remains steady, stock is not excessive, and buyers still see clear value in the location and lifestyle on offer. In some areas, value comes down to security and ease of living. In others, it is about access to the Sandton CBD, good schools, business nodes, or the convenience of lock-up-and-go living. The suburbs still supporting strong prices are usually the ones where buyer demand remains consistent and properties are being launched with the right strategy from the outset.

When a property has been on the market for some time without traction, it is important to step back and reassess. This could be pricing relative to current buyer activity, how the property is positioned online, or how it is being presented. The right adjustments in these areas can change the level of interest.

According to SA’s leading home loan service, ooba, the average purchase price for home loan applications has increased year-on-year to R1.75 million across all value bands, despite a marginal decline in application volumes over the same period. This suggests that buyers are targeting more expensive homes than before, but fewer people are entering the market. The average approved bond size, now at its highest level on record, remains 12.9% below the average purchase price, although it has increased year-on-year compared to February 2025. In other words, even though bond sizes have increased, banks are still not covering the full purchase price. Buyers need to fund the shortfall themselves, typically through a deposit. In practical terms, the market is still moving, but buyers are more considered, and affordability remains a key factor in getting deals done. So what does this mean for buyers in today’s market? 1. You may need a deposit Banks aren’t funding the full purchase price, so you’ll likely need to cover the shortfall. 2. Don’t assume full approval The amount you’re approved for may come in below the purchase price. Know your numbers upfront. 3. Get pre-approved early It keeps your search focused and avoids deals falling through later. 4. Keep expectations realistic There needs to be alignment between what you want to buy and what you can actually afford. 5. Stronger buyers stand out Buyers with deposits and confirmed finance are in a stronger position when it comes to securing a property. In this market, the buyers who prepare properly are the ones getting deals across the line. #PropertyMarketSA #HomeLoan #realestatenews #propertyadvice
