    Investing in new developments, particularly apartments, can be an incredibly profitable opportunity - one that the Seeff Property Group highly recommends. The Hub in Woodstock and Alphen Glen in Wynberg present fantastic opportunities for buyers and property investors. These new apartment developments are not only pet-friendly, but also boast the latest modern conveniences, high-speed fiber internet, and top-of-the-line security. 

    Benefits of Investing in New Apartment Developments

    A significant benefit of investing in new apartment developments is that they are usually already situated in a desirable location, researched and carefully considered by the developers. Another benefit is that you could pay off your investment gradually through the rental income generated by the property.

    Additional benefits of investing in new apartment developments include the following: 

    • Often, no significant upfront investment cost is required and you can finance your investment through a mortgage loan.

    • Property appreciation over time, resulting in a substantial and valuable asset.

    • Close to a wide range of amenities, such as shopping centres, restaurants, and recreational facilities.

    • Easy access to transportation options, including major roads, highways, and public transportation.

    • Properties may be situated near universities and colleges, making them an appealing option for families or students who require access to educational facilities.

    • The development is priced exceptionally well, ranging from R915,000 to R1.46 million, with no upfront investment or deposit required.

    New Apartment Development: Alphen Glen, Wynberg

    Alphen Glen, located on the border of Constantia, is an attractive choice for those who appreciate the finer things in life. It presents the ideal investment opportunity with above-average rental returns, shares Stephan Cross, the manager of Seeff Hout Bay.

    The development offers one and two-bedroom units, with a limited number of three-bedroom units and grand penthouses with expansive terraces. It is perfect for families or individuals seeking a generous amount of space.

    Alphen Glen is nestled in a wind-sheltered area and offers:

    • 24-hour security with access control and secure parking.

    • Luxurious foyer and concierge service.

    • Landscaped atrium with seating and Wi-Fi.

    Prices range from R1.595 million for one bedroom to R5.2 million for the penthouses. Rental yields range from 6.8% to 9% on a one-bedroom unit, which could potentially increase over a six-year period.

    Based on a projected rental escalation of 8% per annum over the next six years, a standard one-bedroom unit with one bathroom and a parking bay and around 47 sqm, which is priced between R1.595 million and R1.925 million (with no transfer duty payable), could yield a monthly rental of R11,000 to R12,000.

    This could potentially increase the investor's rental yield from 7.9% in year one to 12.12% in year six.
