immoafrica is a platform enabling home buyers, renters and real estate agents to find and market properties. A portal for the property and lifestyle enthusiast, immoafrica serves as a comprehensive hub of information covering every facet of real estate.

No, we’re not an estate agency. immoafrica is a technologically advanced property portal allowing South African real estate professionals to list and market their residential sales and rental properties to an international audience of first/second home-buyers, foreign investors and holiday makers.

Properties listed on immoafrica are solely estate agent listings. We do not support private property listings. Estate agents are bound by law to be truthful with their property marketing initiatives and this protects both the buyer and seller.

As a registered user, "My immoafrica" allows you to save and follow your favourite listings, create and manage email alerts, edit your profile, manage your account and contribute to the immoafrica community. It gives you full control and enables you to personalise your home search experience. Best of all, it’s free, quick and easy!

Anyone with an interest and/or passion for real estate can register with immoafrica. Typical registered users include buyers, sellers, renters, owners, agents and investors.

Registering with immoafrica is quick, easy and free. Once signed up, you can personalise your home search experience by following your favourite listings, saving your searches, setting email preferences and much more. You can unsubscribe at any time or once you’ve found your perfect home.

Registering with immoafrica is 100% free - no strings, no catch. You can unsubscribe or delete your account whenever you like. To get started, look for a link called "register" at the top right of our site.

Every registered user gets an immoafrica profile that holds basic information such as your name, status (buyer, renter, seller, etc.), email address, website, short description about yourself and so on. Any content you submit on immoafrica will automatically place a link to your public profile that other immoafrica users can view. You may edit your profile and decide whether other users can contact you or not.

To change your email address or password, navigate to "My immoafrica / My Account" and update your details there. You may also delete your account completely on this page.

The best place to start is by registering with immoafrica - it's free and quick. Once registered, you avoid the hassles of needing to log in whenever you want to add favourites, take notes, save searches, manage alerts, contact agents or contribute to the immoafrica community.

You can save and follow your favourite listings in one of two ways:

1. On the search result page - simply hover your cursor over a listing and a link will appear called "Save". If you are not logged in, immoafrica will ask you to do so in order to proceed. If you don't have an account, you can sign up within the light box that opens. The listing is then automatically saved to your shortlist and will appear under "My immoafrica / My Favourites" where you can manage it accordingly.

2. On the property details page - click the link “Save” under the "Overview/Facts" module. The procedure is the same as in option 1 above.

Essentially you have two options for subscribing to property alerts:

1. No registration required:

a) Go to the "Services" tab and click on Property Alerts - simple enter what you're searching for, e.g. house/3 beds/2 baths/Claremont/Cape Town, enter your email address and click "create alert". You will receive notifications when new listings are added that match your specifications.

b) Conduct a normal property search and specify all your details. Click "Get email alerts" either at the top or bottom of the search results page.

NOTE: You can only unsubscribe from these alerts by clicking the "unsubscribe" link within the emails you receive.

2. Registration required:

On the top right of the search results page, click "Save this search" - your search, including all specified parameters, is saved to your profile and you have the option of activating/deactivating the alert status under "My immoafrica / My Saved Searches".

If you cannot find the right property or have been searching endlessly, the best thing to do is to create a property alert under Services / Property Alerts (no registration required) or under "My immoafrica / My Saved Searches" (registration required). This saves you time and energy as immoafrica will notify you as soon as new listings are added that match your property alert criteria.

We're sorry to hear that you have not received a swift response. Generally, it can take one to two working days for an agent to get back to you on a property inquiry. If however, it has been more than two days, please contact us - we will gladly investigate the delay for you.

Every property details page contains a contact form as well as the agent name, email address and phone number. You can either call the agent directly or fill out the contact form, in which case your enquiry will be sent to the estate agent instantly and free of charge.
