UPSIDE

1. Student Accommodation (Private and NSFAS)

The location of this building allows for a Student Accommodation Opportunity.

Conservatively calculated, 582 student beds will fit.

Estimated cost for conversion, amount to R10 000.00 per bed.

On A-Grade buildings, NSFAS pays R50 000.00 per student per annum in 2026.

For a full analysis and scope on Student Accommodation, please request from broker.

2. The living areas can be partitioned to create an additional bedroom. This would increase the rent with +-20%.

3. AIR BNB

Short Term Leasing is a great opportunity with buildings close to Transport Nodes and important amenities.

4. Cell phone Tower leasing options.

5. Outdoor Advertising opportunities.

6. Solar PV System,(immediately deductible under Section 12B) Central hot-water Boiler system and Borehole with pumps. The Boiler and Borehole would be claimed over time as a Capital Expense.

This not only save costs on water and electricity, but retains tenants, creates a higher demand, less vacancies with higher income and ultimately increases the value of the property.
