So says Jano Booysen, who has just opened the new Realty 1 International Property Group sales and rental franchises in Hartbeespoort, who adds that the area's middle price range varies from about R950k to R1,2m, which buys a three-bedroom, two-bathroom house with double garage. "Those with R4m or more to spend can choose from a selection of luxury homes, many of which are located in secured estates such as Pecanwood and Birdwood."
He says Harties offers a number of value-for-money properties in excellent suburbs like Ifafi, Schoemansville and Meerhof.
He says there are three reasons why Harties is on track for substantial growth once the economy moves into recovery mode. "These include its endless entrepreneurial possibilities, its proximity to both Pretoria and Johannesburg, and its wide range of residential properties.
"Hartbeespoort's small business sector is growing steadily, which is attractive to both salary earners and entrepreneurs. Because it's a highly sought-after holiday and weekend destination, there are enormous possibilities for entrepreneurs in the fields of entertainment, restaurants, galleries, and service and product delivery for residents," says Booysen.
Its location will be another influential factor in terms of its future growth, he adds. "Harties, as the locals refer to it, is 30km from Pretoria and 40km from Fourways. Accordingly, people can live out in the country without having to give up their city jobs."
He also expects the town's property market to gain significant momentum once the country is out of its financial doldrums. "For one, the setting is a beautiful, rural one with a relatively low crime rate. For another, it offers a wide range of architectural styles and price ranges. Newcomers are often surprised at just how affordable it is to buy here, considering its upmarket status."
