Property: Is the Western Cape losing its appeal

from Early Breakfast with Africa Melane · host CapeTalk

Zain Johnson speaks to independent economist John Loos about whether South Africa is witnessing a genuine reverse semigration trend. While the Western Cape's rising property prices may be slowing the pace of inward migration, Loos explains why affordable housing alone won't shift migration patterns, and why Gauteng will need stronger economic growth, improved service delivery and better quality of life to regain its appeal. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
