Selling a home in Southfield

Southfield had the most freehold sales of the three suburbs I report on, and the tightest price band. Most houses sold within a few hundred thousand rand of each other, which makes an overpriced listing stand out to buyers very quickly.

What Southfield homes really sold for

Registered Deeds Office transfers over the last 12 months, to October 2026. Real sold prices, not asking prices. Estate, court-order and family transfers are left out.

Freehold is the core of this market: 49 house transfers against 18 apartments and townhouses. Half of all houses sold between R1.9m and R2.45m. House sizes are the plot; apartment and townhouse sizes are the unit.

The small plot that won

Two houses registered in July.

One on Flambor Road, on a 248m² plot, sold for R2,489,000. One on Dirkie Uys Street, on 786m², more than three times the land, sold for R2,050,000.

The small plot won by R439,000. If you're using a neighbour's sale to guess what yours is worth, it might be the wrong one.

That is why a valuation has to look at your actual home, not just the suburb average.
