“Cape Town property market is ridiculously overpriced. A similar house sells for about KSh 19.6 million max in Gauteng. KSh 78.5 million is enough for a proper modern and fancy house.”
@Kevin Kayembe said:
“Same house, different location, could easily go for about KSh 7.1 million to KSh 11.8 million.”
@Dustine pointed out:
“No garden, no pool, no view and the third bedroom is accessed via the second bedroom via the bathroom on rainy days! This is insanity 🤯.”
@Marione&Marley added:
“I'm sorry, I don't mean to be a hater, but KSh 78.5 million for those door handles? It's beautiful, don't get me wrong, but I can't get over the door handles.”
