A home with character. An apartment with Airbnb potential. Space for extended family, or a pizza oven for Friday nights.
We’ve improved Ask MyProperty to better recognise the details that matter to you and deliver more accurate matches.
Building on our natural-language search, this update improves how we identify features described in property listings, including those visible in photos through our AI Vision technology. It also helps us better understand the context, style and feel of the home you’re looking for.
Get more specific with your search
From estate living and dual living to fixer-uppers, pizza ovens, and ocean, city or mountain views, you can search for much more than bedrooms and bathrooms.
Try describing what you have in mind:
“Homes with power and water backup in Cape Town”
“Homes in an estate in Midrand with a pizza oven and space to entertain”
“A fixer-upper in Durban North with a large garden”
“A dual-living 3 bedroom home in Pretoria with space for extended family”
“Airbnb investment apartments in Cape Town R1m to R3m”
“A light and airy north facing apartment with mountain views in Cape Town”
"an elevated modern home in Windhoek with mountain views"
"Steps from the beach in Swakopmund"
Combine practical requirements such as budget and location with the features, atmosphere or lifestyle you’re after.
Tell us what matters most
You can also adjust Feature importance to fine-tune how properties are ranked for you. If a gym is high on your wish list but a communal pool is just a bonus, give them different priorities to help bring more relevant homes to the top.
A fun example: our National Pizza Oven Map 🍕
Our recently introduced National Pizza Oven Map shows this technology in action. By identifying pizza ovens in listing descriptions and photos, we’ve created a playful way to explore homes with this distinctive feature.
The same improvements help uncover other details that make a property right for you, from landscaped gardens to architectural character. Try your next search in Ask MyProperty. Describe the home, the features and the feeling you’re looking for, in your own words, and language.
