Semigration from the FreeState to the South Coast KZN is gaining steady momentum.
FreeStaters ~Selling your property in Bloemfontein, Bothaville, Bethlehem and Welkom could surprise you i.t.o the value you could get at St Michaels, Southbroom, Ramsgate and Margate.
For Wellkom - Goldfields semigrators moving to Margate :- You leave a municipality ranked near the lower end of services and municipal audits for a municipality, (Margate) ranked among the top 20 in South Africa.
There is so much more - and you`re at the warm wonderful sea!
Another reason for a retired person leaving Welkom for the KZN South Coast is:
* When you sell your 1.2 to 1.6m Townhouse or revamped home in Welkom - instead of just buying around the corner, or downscaling in the same town - move your next improved long term investment to the coast for a Home you could easily afford.
* The South Coast is currently undervalued - now is the time to look at your retirement options - for the same money - you can buy a similar property, just an easy walk from the beach.
