Am sorry but there are some Africam countries that do offer mortgages yes the interest rate might be higher but the possibility is there. WE have this in Ghana. And there are some houses you pay in installments. But both options have its pro and con. You buy land and can build your property and you fully own it with very little to no tax on it.

This is a confirmation that Nigeria real estate is a scam. Compare the quality and “quantity” of what $1m gets you here to Nigeria and you’ll be amazed at the level of thievery. The roads and amenities in Banana island can’t even match what you get in most middle income areas in CPT/Joburg.
Nigeria real estate is a scam, I have visited all the mentioned estate in this video and I can confirm it's amazing. Am a uber driver that's why I have got chance to visit all of them
@Ultra_Magicc you are completely missing the point. Every country has bad parts, this has nothing to do with that. This is about upper class/luxury market in these countries. South Africa has way better value for money than what Nigeria and many African countries luxury market has to offer. The quality as well as value proposition is higher in SA in almost every instance
This is an example of world class city. Yes, we have our own problems but we have a lot more positives. Joburg has cities such as sandton, waterfall city, rosebank, etc. These cities are richer than entire african countries. It's home to the 19th richest stock exchange which is even larger than the australian stock exchange.

Lets be honest..as a Nigerian that has lived in South africa for a really good time, i will tell you with my full chest that Jozi, cape town major cities can't be compared to anywhere in Nigeria. Is it Sandton, Rivonia, Greenpoint, Tableview, Etc that you want to compare to where in naija? Make We no dey do comparism abeg....Naija still needs a lot of restructuring...Leave the independence whatever...Our Govt is lagging behind extensively!
Bro i have been to Nigeria yes i agree with you alot....however my concern is why most nigerians are neglected we need to come together as super powers and give africa true elite face
@@lifewithqueenSolo it's painful how our government most times, choose to chase the useless policies to be implemented into our system rather than focus on what's positive...that's why when many youth leave that country, they never wanna comeback to stay Permanently...it's been over 13 years since I migrated.... I visit & leave after a very short stay in Naija......It's not a nice thing for future generations to meet....When The youth who try to change the situation are clamoring for the change that's needed, they send the army and issue threats to them to stop them.

Nigeria's 🇳🇬 real estate sector needs a PARADIGM Shift. GREEN space and BIODIVERSITY are value addition to creating a health and wellbeing environment for a environmentally concious community. Not just building big boxes of concrete a concept that is gradually phasing out, as FORWARD thinking and smart Entrepreneurs are seeking more SUSTAINABLE ecofriendly options of building quality homes in our beautiful Motherland AFRICA to help combat the current climate change crisis.
It always vexes me when I see a lot of beautiful houses without greenery in Nigeria, I don't know why they keep building houses like that without green space
Yes, like earth ships as well where they utilize tires, bottles, and other non biodegradable trash in order to insulate the homes for a pleasant climate.
@@viruxffyt6650 Very simple. Our real estate developers look to maximize every square meter for profit (and secondarily a preferred aesthetic - big home, small yard rather than the other way around). So if you have six plots, rather than build a home covering three plots and trees/greenery across three plots, a developer will divide the six plots into 7 different parcels - and overprice each. Also, Nigerians simply will not pay the going costs for purchasing trees/greenery and maintenance (which is quite costly). So we sacrifice aesthetics for some more practical cost considerations. Na our way.
Even with all this real este investment, some still want to compare Rwanda, Kigali, to South Africa,Joanesburgo. Kigali still have a long way to go not to Over take but to BE close to Johannesburg. Regards from Angola, well done Steven✌️🙏✌️🙏🌹
Most of the greenery in Joburg is planted (manmade). Joburg biome is mostly savanna grassland (naturally). If you know how the area where Waterfall is before the development started, that's how Joburg is.
@@Towoawawabo8your point could be made without mentioning scammers. There’s scammers everywhere including SA, China, Philippines, Russia, ghana, even sophisticated ones in America. So miss me with this bullshit and stick to the topic here.
Enjoy watching your videos. Just a minor correction. Waterfall Country Estate is not located 10,000 KM from Sandton. It’s only 12km, about 15 min drive. Otherwise, dope
Swallow your pride 1st n ask other africans to be involved in nigeria because in nigeria what they know best is demolishing good things n to bring Chinese in that country
Very, very insightful. I just discovered that some of these 2-bedroom HOMES in Waterfall, which is upscale Jo'Burg, are cheaper than most 2-bedroom APARTMENTS in similar areas in Nairobi. Given that Jo'Burg is more developed and SA a much more robust economy than Kenya, I believe there is something wrong with the real estate market in Nairobi.
I think a lot of African countries price things in USD terms with very little regard to cost vs value so you find a lot of overpriced real estate which does not even translate to the real economy. The only thing I can think of is we have a lot of dirty money from crime and corruption which inflates prices.
It is correct pricing, apart from development, prices depends on the hype created for its market not necessarily how the property looks or have, but also Africans can charge an arm and a leg for a useless thing. South African house market is priced for its citizens excluding cape town while we still enjoy a fairly strong currency against other African countries. the mortgage system to a great extent plays a role in regulating prices area. We have a Township called Tembisa here, mxm! those blacks can sell to you a dilapidated property for almost a million rand and banks usually don't finance such madness. it is hyped to be a good for business
Developed by whites, I don't know why my fellow blacks are fooling themselves here in the comment section, out all the properties shown here not more than 3% are black owned
Building wealth involves developing good habits like regularly putting money away in intervals for solid investments. Financial management is a crucial topic that most tend to shy away from, and ends up haunting them in the near future. Putting our time and effort in activities and investments that will yield a profitable return in the future is what we should be aiming for. Success depends on the actions or steps you take to achieve it, "I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life
YES!!! That's exactly her name (Maria Davis) so many people have recommended highly about her and am just starting with her 😊 from Brisbane Australia🇦🇺
Probably because in SA everything is priced in rands and the estates featured are owned by locals as opposed to ultra luxury you find in Cape Town which attracts foreign millionaires and property is way more expensive.
@@sompisiphinda1417 you have got some home work to do about Joburg..drive around when you have time....Blair Athol in Lanseria, Saddle Brook in Midrand not far from River Sands and Dunblane is in Kempton Park.
I was in Joburg in March this year and I was blown away by the planning and the mansions that is almost bigger than some shopping Malls here in Australia. Nigerian's planning is so warp that I was unashamely saying possibly if we had allowed the British to stay on in Nigeria till the 80s may be just may be the nation would not be in the shambles as it is now.
Everything you see in this video was built after the black government took over by majority of black engineers /labour/architects so if you think this is all because of white people you are lost
Colonisers would have settled anywhere in the continent if they wanted to.They were intentional about the region in the continent that would benefit them mostly.They settled in South Africa because it was an ideal halfway point between Europe, India and the then-Dutch East Indies at a time when the spice trade was still lucrative thus they could also access slaves from India, Zanj coast, Bengal, Malay with ease to bring them to SA. Mildness of the climate compared to the rest the continent was a plus because it helped them develop industries such as horticulture, agriculture and livestock farming. Biodiversity in the Cape region was really a bonus because of the large amounts of arable lands and resources that were available along with an arid-to-semi arid climate that is Mediterranean. If conditions in South Africa were different, the country would not have been on their radar at all.
Blue hills equestrian(15 min) is almost on par with waterfall, if not, it is definitely second. I also think Marlbank, Mooikloof equestrian, Helderfontein estate, Ebotse estate and Cornwall hill deserve a shoutout...
Blue Hills Estate is definitely in top 3, maybe after Steyn City (it is in Midrand Johannesburg). It is definitely way better and more luxurious than Serengeti and Eye of Africa, those last 2 were not suppose to be in the top 5
Finally in Johannesburg Steven I would appreciate it if I could take you around Johannesburg and not just luxurious cities but also the deep part of the townships. I LIKE HOW YOU SHOWED MY CITY OF Gold
Why would he do that? I have yet to come across a USA real estate vlog showing some of the best real estate in the USA and some random person requesting that they show the run down ghettos in LA. We Africans are really our biggest enemies. If you want to see townships there is plenty of content focused on that.
@@tyali84 it is not your content to decide that is the sad part, and I believe it is important to balance everything equally, there are average homes and rich homes
Waterfall Equestrian Estate is absolutely beautiful. Love how green and well manicured the outdoor areas are.. The architecture is amazing. Johannesburg is essentially in a dry and arid region but the landscaping in a lot of these estates is superb.. Great video..
Besides Cape town and JHB, South Africa still has lovely and massive residential properties in Durban and Pretoria. Hopefully you will do these two cities as well. You will be astonished. Not to even mention the countless resorts in Mpumalanga lowveld, Northwest, KZN and Limpopo. God bless SADC ❤🇿🇦❤🇳🇦❤🇱🇸❤🇧🇼❤🇿🇼!!!!!!!

The Waterfall Estates is gorgeous! The aerial shots make it look just like the Hamptons!
It does!
Nigeria realtors and construction engineers should come and see what you call getting ur moneys worth when it comes to real estate
Scammers will always think that way 😂is there anyone serious none corrupted in Nigeria that's in power?
@@Towoawawabo8your point could be made without mentioning scammers. There’s scammers everywhere including SA, China, Philippines, Russia, ghana, even sophisticated ones in America. So miss me with this bullshit and stick to the topic here.
@@Towoawawabo8 everyone is a 419 in Nigeria
How many Africans live on that estate?
@@yinka.africa A lot. I have a friend staying there.
South African Inequality is so crazy.
Well done to those who worked hard and can afford to live in these areas
yhoo niyabhora ai
Inequality is every where
This is what nigerians and rest use against us
ai brayaka. you cant be positive in life... Don't worry we will fix those problems
@@karabomasimola2412 inequality is not a bad thing .
Enjoy watching your videos. Just a minor correction. Waterfall Country Estate is not located 10,000 KM from Sandton. It’s only 12km, about 15 min drive. Otherwise, dope
I think he made a mistake. He meant 10KM
Hawu obviously he meant 10KM
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Intelligent and humble remark.
Wise MAN!
Regards from Angola❤️🙏😁
I agree with Waterfall Equestrian. The yards are huge and absolutely beautiful.
South Africa has one of the best lad out in the world and also shouts out to them for putting in the effort to stop the killing in Palestine 🇵🇸
Guys the estate style is amazing, can we adopt something like this in the Nigerian real estate market?
I wish we could
Swallow your pride 1st n ask other africans to be involved in nigeria because in nigeria what they know best is demolishing good things n to bring Chinese in that country
Welcome to South Africa 🇿🇦 proudly South African 🇿🇦
Very, very insightful. I just discovered that some of these 2-bedroom HOMES in Waterfall, which is upscale Jo'Burg, are cheaper than most 2-bedroom APARTMENTS in similar areas in Nairobi. Given that Jo'Burg is more developed and SA a much more robust economy than Kenya, I believe there is something wrong with the real estate market in Nairobi.
I think a lot of African countries price things in USD terms with very little regard to cost vs value so you find a lot of overpriced real estate which does not even translate to the real economy. The only thing I can think of is we have a lot of dirty money from crime and corruption which inflates prices.
SA property market is cheap compared to Kenyan. As a Kenyan who lived there, I can assure you that you get value for your money.
It is correct pricing, apart from development, prices depends on the hype created for its market not necessarily how the property looks or have, but also Africans can charge an arm and a leg for a useless thing. South African house market is priced for its citizens excluding cape town while we still enjoy a fairly strong currency against other African countries. the mortgage system to a great extent plays a role in regulating prices area. We have a Township called Tembisa here, mxm! those blacks can sell to you a dilapidated property for almost a million rand and banks usually don't finance such madness. it is hyped to be a good for business
south africa is amongst the well developed countries in the world
Developed by whites, I don't know why my fellow blacks are fooling themselves here in the comment section, out all the properties shown here not more than 3% are black owned
Steve i was heart broken when you you took this video down but thanks for re uploading it, 🙏 ,i also liked cape Verde and ivory Coast videos.
Download it before it goes down again
SA arch is out of this world
Next time you should go to satelite and smart cities such as:
Sandton
Rosebank
Melrose Arch
Waterfall City
since I was a kid I wanted to stay in Steyn City... I love it and it's beautiful AF
Building wealth involves developing good habits like regularly putting money away in intervals for solid investments. Financial management is a crucial topic that most tend to shy away from, and ends up haunting them in the near future. Putting our time and effort in activities and investments that will yield a profitable return in the future is what we should be aiming for.

i'm sure it's everybody's favourite. 🙂
The best
Great as always Steven and Sibiya Sibiya ....top man Steven
The houses are cheap compared to smaller houses in banana island Lagos, Nigeria.
True that
Probably because in SA everything is priced in rands and the estates featured are owned by locals as opposed to ultra luxury you find in Cape Town which attracts foreign millionaires and property is way more expensive.
@@nlocnil3602 it’s cheaper because of accessibility, it’s more accessible in SA, the land, materials, financing and the market.
Stop lying hater😂😂
@@thabangdiokana9886 what’s up?
South Africa also have naturally beautiful landscape. This country God blessed it with natural beauty I have traveled but SA is beautiful
Johannesburg is the Los Angeles of Africa.
Agree or disagree🤚?
True
So true, in fact a lot of Americans tourists do confirm Johannesburg is build like Los Angeles.
I believe LA is a coastal area
Cape Town..
This is free commercial for joburg realtors
Saddlebrook, Blair Athol and Dunblane should be on this list as well...
Blair Athol!
They're not in Johannesburg.
And Monaghan Farm.
@@sompisiphinda1417 you have got some home work to do about Joburg..drive around when you have time....Blair Athol in Lanseria, Saddle Brook in Midrand not far from River Sands and Dunblane is in Kempton Park.
@@sompisiphinda1417 they fall under Johannesburg Metro...Joburg is stretching until Lanseri Airport
I was in Joburg in March this year and I was blown away by the planning and the mansions that is almost bigger than some shopping Malls here in Australia. Nigerian's planning is so warp that I was unashamely saying possibly if we had allowed the British to stay on in Nigeria till the 80s may be just may be the nation would not be in the shambles as it is now.
Everything you see in this video was built after the black government took over by majority of black engineers /labour/architects so if you think this is all because of white people you are lost
Colonisers would have settled anywhere in the continent if they wanted to.They were intentional about the region in the continent that would benefit them mostly.They settled in South Africa because it was an ideal halfway point between Europe, India and the then-Dutch East Indies at a time when the spice trade was still lucrative thus they could also access slaves from India, Zanj coast, Bengal, Malay with ease to bring them to SA. Mildness of the climate compared to the rest the continent was a plus because it helped them develop industries such as horticulture, agriculture and livestock farming. Biodiversity in the Cape region was really a bonus because of the large amounts of arable lands and resources that were available along with an arid-to-semi arid climate that is Mediterranean. If conditions in South Africa were different, the country would not have been on their radar at all.
Thank you very much for doing a perfect job on my mansions!
South Africa is something else... I like the name Serengeti one of the popular national parks in Tanzania
Yah and in KZN there is a Serengeti estate I think it might be the same company
Such a good video, from editing to information on the communities and homes. Can you please make one of these in Nigeria? ☺
Waterfall City is not 10000km from Sandton, maybe 10km to 15km via N1 route.
Blue hills equestrian(15 min) is almost on par with waterfall, if not, it is definitely second.
I also think Marlbank, Mooikloof equestrian, Helderfontein estate, Ebotse estate and Cornwall hill deserve a shoutout...
The focus was on Johannesburg. Yes, those you mentioned are beautiful.
Blue Hills Estate is definitely in top 3, maybe after Steyn City (it is in Midrand Johannesburg). It is definitely way better and more luxurious than Serengeti and Eye of Africa, those last 2 were not suppose to be in the top 5
@@evidencesithole768 100% agree with you.
Blue hills equestrian 100%
I'd definitely put Ebotse there in the place of Serengeti, though it's in Benoni, they keep saying "in and around Johannesburg" in the video.
We miss you Steve and hope you can be giving us content like this frequently cause I do love your very videos
Thank you
Finally in Johannesburg
Steven I would appreciate it if I could take you around Johannesburg and not just luxurious cities but also the deep part of the townships.
I LIKE HOW YOU SHOWED MY CITY OF Gold
That will be nice, where are you based?
We don't really care about deep parts of townships my dear. We not trying to buy properties in Tembisa and Alex 😭😭😭
Why would he do that? I have yet to come across a USA real estate vlog showing some of the best real estate in the USA and some random person requesting that they show the run down ghettos in LA. We Africans are really our biggest enemies. If you want to see townships there is plenty of content focused on that.
@@tyali84 it is not your content to decide that is the sad part, and I believe it is important to balance everything equally, there are average homes and rich homes
The beautiful building called Vodacom building, others call it Ponte city
Excellent work Steve. Keep it up!
I tell people all the time that America is not the only country in the world. I would move here in a minute.
I live in Sandton yet I've learned somethings about South Africa through your channel

Waterfall Equestrian Estate is absolutely beautiful. Love how green and well manicured the outdoor areas are.. The architecture is amazing. Johannesburg is essentially in a dry and arid region but the landscaping in a lot of these estates is superb.. Great video..
True, the most greenery in Joburg is man-made.
Besides Cape town and JHB, South Africa still has lovely and massive residential properties in Durban and Pretoria. Hopefully you will do these two cities as well. You will be astonished.
Not to even mention the countless resorts in Mpumalanga lowveld, Northwest, KZN and Limpopo.
God bless SADC ❤🇿🇦❤🇳🇦❤🇱🇸❤🇧🇼❤🇿🇼!!!!!!!

The distance between Cape Town & London is also a ‘convenient’ 10,000 kilometers too :))
Beautiful video. You've shown us a side of SA we sometimes forget exists with all the crime, load shedding & unemployement.
There will always be that person.......
Danko Stevovo 🤝🏽
My top 5 would be...
5. Eye of Africa
4. Blair Athol
3. Steyn City
2. Blue hills equestrian
1. Waterfall Equestrian
Cheers😊
You spotted all my favourite biggest estates🔥♥️in SA you have gained a new subscriber ,im a proudly south African my country is beautiful

The architectural designs in SA and the road network are super
Na Nigeria they stress person 😂😂😂😂 joburg im coming

@@1HourOf. Nigerian are the problem, they complain about everything, their estate looks really good but when you see them complaining you will think their estate is mudhut. they are the biggest problem of that country.

Amazing video though. 👊👊🇿🇦

Waterfall country estate is 10 000 km from Sandton? Impossible!! 12 KM!
Waterfall equestrian is such an amazing estate, whenever I go there I ask myself if these people have ever tasted poverty
It’s a mistake 10 kms
They made a mistake on this one. Because Durban to Johannesburg is 620km 😂😂
Obviously 000 was a mistake tjo
@@StevenNdukwu😂😂😂
A great country🤩👍
Blair atholl estate should have been on the list
It would've definitely made it, but it's not in Johannesburg.
