Why winter is a hot time to buy property
False Bay Echo
|June 12, 2025
Contrary to popular belief, the winter months are not a dead zone in the South African real estate market.
In fact, data compiled by REMAX of Southern Africa dispels the myth that property sales go quiet during the colder season.
According to internal national sales figures for REMAX Southern Africa, June, July, and August consistently reflect slightly higher transaction volumes throughout the year.
This surprising trend illustrates that winter offers fertile ground for property transactions, challenging the notion that warmer months are inherently better for buying and selling real estate.
"While our stats pick up from June, our registered sales figures tend to peak in September and November and then drop off in December and January," says Adrian Goslett, Regional Director and CEO of REMAX Southern Africa.
