Goodbye Cape Town – buyers are flocking to these small towns

• Buyers are increasingly looking beyond Cape Town and larger Western Cape centres toward smaller towns where properties offer more space and a slower pace of life.
• The small towns of Robertson, McGregor, and Montagu are benefiting from this trend, with demand coming from young families, older buyers, and retirees.
• The market attracts both younger and older buyers, with prices ranging from R1.6 million to R7 million for freestanding homes, sectional-title units, and estate homes.
