Africa-Press – Eswatini. <\/strong><\/span>The SBC Limited Group has revealed an opportunity for home ownership to a sector of the market that has traditionally not qualified due to restrictions in traditional bank finance.
\n<\/b>
\nThis is according to the SBC Limited and subsidiaries group results for the year ended 31 December 2021.<\/p>\n

The Group stated that in Eswatini, the Malkerns Square project, a local housing and retail development, augments the business offering by providing residential rental and retail opportunities to prospective tenants.<\/p>\n

It was explained that the residential offering was fully completed in the quarter four of 2020, which incorporated 147 completed apartments in the portfolio.<\/p>\n

The results indicated that during 2021, eight Embassy Units were completed and this caters for the higher scale executive market<\/p>\n

\u201cAlthough the demand for rental units was slower than initially anticipated due to the Covid-19 pandemic, we have noted a substantial increase in demand from quarter three and four of 2021, and we forecast to achieve an 80 per cent occupancy by quarter two in 2022,\u201d the statement reads.<\/p>\n

occupied<\/p>\n

According to the Group, the retail centre is 100 per cent occupied with significant long-term leases in place with Pick n Pay, West Pack and KFC, which has performed in line with expectations. As a result of the success of the initial retail offering, the Group stated that it has initiated the development of retail two, a new development planned for 2022 which will incorporate approximately 7 000 square metre of lettable space and will complement the current retail development.<\/p>\n

This development will be designed to enhance the entire SBC estate and offer opportunities to potential tenants, including Shoprite, West Pack, hardware, banks and restaurants.<\/p>\n

The Group explained that complementing existing 147 completed residential apartments and the eight embassy town houses will be the new development of affordable one and two bedroom units.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese will be specifically designed and built for sale (under the sectional title act) and mortgage finance product will be provided by the Select Group to successful applicants.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis offering will be a first in Eswatini and will provide opportunities for home ownership to a sector of the market that has traditionally not qualified, due to restrictions in traditional bank finance,\u201d the Group revealed.<\/p>\n
