UNLOCK THE POTENTIAL
Some properties are bought for what they are. Others are bought for what they could become.
This is one of those properties.
Situated directly across from the Court and close proximity from the Magistrates Court, this substantial older building offers something that cannot be renovated, replaced or replicated LOCATION.
If I were an investor with the capital and vision, I would seriously investigate the potential of transforming this property into a purpose-designed legal and professional office precinct, potentially catering to attorneys, advocates and other professional firms.
And the exciting part
The income is already there.

GROUND FLOOR 5 COMMERCIAL UNITS
The ground floor currently consists of 5 units, occupied by a combination of established tenants, including:
An attorney
A retail shop
An estate agency

CURRENT GROUND-FLOOR RENTAL INCOME:
R26,454 VAT inclusive per month
FIRST FLOOR 8 RESIDENTIAL UNITS

BUT THIS IS WHERE THE STORY GETS INTERESTING...
The current configuration is only one version of what this property could become.
An investor with the right vision could investigate the feasibility of repositioning the building into professional officeattorney suites, taking full advantage of its exceptional proximity to the legal precinct.
Another potential strategy worth investigating would be whether the individual units could, subject to all required professional, municipal, legal and sectional-title approvals, be registered as sectional-title units and eventually sold individually to professional firms or investors.
This could create a completely different investment model:
Acquire
Renovate
Reposition
Potentially Sectionalize
Sell or Retain
Of course, the feasibility, costs, zoning, building compliance, sectional-title registration and all relevant approvals would need to be professionally investigated by the purchaser.
WHY THIS PROPERTY
Directly across from the Court
Existing rental income of R56,154 per month
5 established commercial units
8 residential units that can become office suits
Long-term commercial leases already in place
Residential units available on month-to-month agreements
Significant repositioning potential
Exceptional location for the legal and professional market
A property where the location may ultimately be worth far more than the current configuration suggests
THE INVESTMENT STORY
This isn''t a property for an investor looking for a shiny, newly renovated building with no work required.
This is a property for someone who can see beyond the current finishes.
The building is older and the residential component is ready for a new jacket.
But that also means there is an opportunity to add value.
The fundamentals are already in place:
Prime location existing tenants existing income flexible residential leases substantial space redevelopment potential.
The next owner gets to decide what the next chapter looks like.
KEEP THE RENTAL MODEL.
RENOVATE AND REPOSITION.
INVESTIGATE PROFESSIONAL OFFICE SUITES.
OR EXPLORE A SECTIONAL-TITLE STRATEGY.
The potential is endless the location is already established.
VAT REGISTERED SELLER
The seller is VAT registered. Purchasers are advised to obtain independent professional advice regarding the VAT implications of the transaction and any applicable transfer costs.
