Residential Property Prices in South Africa increased 5.90 percent in April of 2025 over the same month in the previous year. This dataset includes a chart with historical data for South Africa Residential Property Prices.

Abstract

The Residential Property Price Index (RPPI) for South Africa was compiled by Statistics South Africa in partnership with the South African Reserve Bank and with the support of the International Monetary Fund. The source data for the RPPI are the records of property transactions registered with the Office of the Chief Registrar of Deeds (Deeds office). The RPPI is compiled using internationally accepted methods as outlined in Eurostat's Handbook on Residential Property Price Indices and the IMF's Residential Property Price Index Practical Compilation Guide. These documents are provided with the data. The indices are calculated using a rolling window time dummy hedonic regression model. The purpose of RPPIs is to measure changes in the price of residential properties, such as houses, townhouses and flats, purchased by households. Both new and existing dwellings are covered, independently of their final use and their previous owners. Only market prices are considered, including the price of the land on which residential buildings are located.
