The Chas Everitt International Property Group is expanding from South Africa and entering Zimbabwe. The renowned real estate agency will be officially opening its office in Harare on April 2, 2025.

 

"This expansion comes in response to Zimbabwe's steady economic recovery over the past few years and rapid growth in key industries such as mining, tourism and agriculture, which is attracting many new affluent buyers and investors to the local real estate market," says Chas Everitt COO Barry Davies.

 

"In addition, urbanisation is increasing and there has been a surge in diaspora spending in response to the government's policy reforms and infrastructure developments, with the result that Zimbabwe now has one of the fastest-growing property markets in Africa."

 

Zimbabwe's Growing Real Estate Sector

Certain challenges still exist, he notes, including currency instability, high construction costs and regulatory uncertainties, but despite these, Zimbabwe's residential real estate sector is expected to be worth some USD85-billion this year and grow at an annual rate exceeding 5% to reach more than USD104-billion by the end of this decade.

 

"Our new Chas Everitt office in Harare, under the leadership of local business stalwarts Trevor Jakachira and Evelyn Mbundire, will cater to the growing demand for prime residential properties in suburbs such as Avondale, Borrowdale and Mount Pleasant and is currently assembling a top-performing team of experienced estate agents.

 

"It will provide expert guidance and a comprehensive range of real estate services including sales, leasing and property management to both local and international buyers, helping them navigate the opportunities and challenges of Zimbabwe's dynamic property landscape."

 

Zimbabwe's Investment Potential

Zimbabwe presents excellent investment opportunities, says Davies. "For example, the most recent statistics show that an influx of expatriates and business professionals has driven prime residential rents up by more than 10% over the past three years, so that four-bedroom apartments or homes in Harare are now commanding up to USD3,500 a month. Platforms like Airbnb are also fuelling demand for short-term rental units and holiday homes.

 

"Consequently, a significant portion of current property inquiries is currently driven by Zimbabweans abroad looking to invest in luxury rental apartments as well as family homes, and by global investors who are always on the lookout for diversification opportunities in thriving emerging markets."

 

Davies says that as a result of its affiliation to Leading Real Estate Companies of the World®, Chas Everitt is easily able to connect top property developers and owners in Zimbabwe to these affluent investors across the world, "and with local business leaders at the helm who have a deep understanding of the evolving market trends and investment opportunities in Zimbabwe, we will definitely be best-placed to assist those investors in making informed choices and smart property decisions."
