Africa’s millionaire population is set to soar by 65% over the next decade, according to the newly released Africa Wealth Report 2025 by Henley & Partners and New World Wealth. This rapid growth is reshaping the continent’s economic map — and South Africa, with its thriving high-end real estate sector, stands to benefit significantly.

South African homeowners risk losing both time and value when they overprice their properties, according to the newly released MyProperty Sentiment Index 2025. The report, based on feedback from over 200 estate agents, reveals that over 75% of homes end up selling below the asking price — and in many cases only after extended delays.

After several years of uncertainty, the South African property market is gradually regaining its footing. In a trend that may be encouraging for sellers, investors, and first-time buyers, we’re starting to see house prices creep upward.
