Why Sibaya Coastal Precinct is an ideal rental location

Sibaya Coastal Precinct is renowned for its comprehensive amenities.

Additionally, the convenience of having Marine Walk Shopping Centre just five minutes away, along with easy access to Dischem, restaurants, and Gateway Theatre of Shopping, adds immense value to living in this precinct. The coastal charm of Umdloti Beach and the natural beauty of the Hawaan Forest further enhances the absolute peace of mind that comes with living here.

What home buyers are looking for

A great idea is that some of our home buyers opt to rent first, to get a feel of the area before deciding on their dream home. Needs are diverse and it could be a ground floor apartment, high-rise with coastal views or it could be a freestanding home within a secure gated estate that they have their hearts set on. As development specialists, Devmco Realty has the tools and experience to find the perfect home that meets all needs.
