High-Capacity Investment Property | 22 Beds | Borehole |R35,000/month Gross Income
This is a cashflow-focused property designed for maximum occupancy + low utility costs. Ideal for investors targeting student, worker, or room-rental markets.
22 rooms total across main structure + approved extensions. Configured for singles/doubles to match market rates. High density = strong monthly revenue per m².
4 full bathrooms + 4 separate toilets. 1 bed-to-bath ratio. Works well for budget accommodation where shared facilities are standard. Good tenant flow if staggered morning schedules.
Private borehole on site. Eliminates municipal water interruptions + cuts the biggest utility bill. Borehole = water security + R2k-R4k/month saved vs municipal. Huge tenant selling point in Gauteng.
R35,000/month
That’s R1,590 per room/month average. At 90% occupancy = R31,500/month. At 80% occupancy = R28,000/month.
Best suited near taxi routes, industrial areas, colleges, or hospitals where room demand is constant.
22 income streams diversify risk. Losing 1-2 tenants barely dents cashflow vs a 3-bed house sitting empty.
Borehole handles water, the #1 expense killer for boarding houses. Add prepaid meters + you cap electricity costs too.
Rooms under R2k fill fastest in SA. This setup hits that sweet spot.
Property already structured for communal living. Upgrade bathrooms/kitchen later to push rates higher.
This isn’t a “family home” layout. It’s a business. Durable finishes, practical spaces, built to run 24/7. Manage well and it delivers monthly.
Ideal Buyer: Experienced landlord, student accommodation operator, or investor adding high-yield assets to portfolio.
