The Housing Development Agency | Mogale City Mining Town Housing Market 2. Introduction

The Housing Development Agency (HDA) is a national public development agency that promotes sustainable communities by making well-located land and buildings available for the development of human settlements. As its primary activity, the HDA assembles and releases state, private and communal land and buildings for development. In addition, the HDA provides project delivery support services to organs of state at local, provincial and national levels.

In setting the agenda and asserting its role in the housing continuum, the HDA realised that there is a gap in the provision of accurate and easy-to-understand information regarding the property market, particularly in previously overlooked areas including the mining towns.

The development of this report is a result of this gap. It aims to explore and present an overview of the formal housing markets in Matjhabeng, Moqhaka, Merafong, Randfontein, , Thabazimbi, Greater Tubatse, Elias Motsoaledi, Lephalale, Fetakgomo, eMalahleni, City of Matlosana, Mogale City, Ephraim Mogale, Steve Tshwete, Thaba Chweu, Tsantsabane, Ga-Sekgonyana, Gamagara, Kgetlengrivier, Madibeng, Moses Kotane and Rustenburg so as to change perceptions of affordable markets and as such, expand and deliver affordable housing options within South Africa’s .

The study was undertaken over a three-month period, relying mainly on the high level indicators developed by the Centre for Affordable Housing Finance in Africa which considered the market conditions, existing market size and activity, average prices and values, market growth and lending activity in the area to support a better understanding of the opportunity and the impact of various housing policy interventions. The centre also highlighted the range of opportunities across areas to stimulate the affordable housing market in South African municipalities.

The methodology also included site visits to eMalahleni, Randfontein, Westonaria and Rustenburg so as to confirm findings and to gain more insights about the current housing circumstances.

The report is intended for use by all stakeholders involved in planning including professionals in municipalities, Government officials, private sector, investors, developers and urban planners, for the mission of enticing a range of development options. The report does not address housing supply for the lowest income levels but rather seeks to make the case for expanding the gap market in order to entice private sector engagement more effectively.

2.1 Report Contents

The report covers the following aspects of housing markets through maps, charts and graphs to highlight understanding across the municipality and at the neighbourhood level, where housing markets function.

1. Housing Performance Profile – the pace of growth by suburb, on maps and in charts, as measured by the Housing Performance Index 2. Market Size – total number and distribution of residential properties, households, values and sales prices, key demographic indicators 3. Market Activity – properties, sales and new properties and resales over time 4. Lending Activity – sales and loans by lender 5. Affordability Profile – affordability based on local incomes, compared to sales price, housing gaps and affordability ratios 6. Leverage – the value of equity available for purchasing new homes 7. Rental Index – those areas most prime for quality, dense, professionally managed rental housing

2.2 Definitions and Methodology

For housing supply, title and deeds records were merged at the suburb level, mapped and ranked through the Citymark dashboard. Priority has been placed on actual transaction datasets from familiar sources that can be geocoded to the subplace level, trended over time and updated regularly. For housing demand, StatsSA data was applied as the most consistently collected, widely understood and most common source of demographic data in the Country.

The Housing Development Agency | Mogale City Mining Town Housing Market Report 2.3 Benchmarks

Benchmarks are indicators used to compare performance across areas and are valuable for understanding meaning. Each indicator was created at the local, municipal and national levels in order to measure performance within and across markets. These benchmarks also highlight areas or trends which are outperforming the overall market in certain ways and might be most receptive to a variety of new housing development options.

2.4 Site Visits

As mentioned, the team conducted four site visits to eMalahleni, Randfontein, Westonaria and Rustenburg. These visits provided the chance to confirm findings from the data and chat informally with residents about their current housing circumstances: where they had moved from, where they were currently living and how affordable it was and where they were headed, including their ambitions and concerns. This helps to provide a sense of the housing continuum in the town – what choices residents feel empowered by and what constraints keep them from realising their dreams and aspirations. Residents who were engaged came from informal settlements, brand new RDP homes and a stalled RDP project which had recently been reactivated by the city.

Some of the key insights from these site visits were:

• Residents may not know exactly what their home might be worth but they are very aware that their home has a value, which includes stability and security for themselves and a better future for their families • Many residents use their homes to supplement their own income, including renting shacks and rooms and operating home-based businesses • There might be a relationship between how the houses are handed over and the sense of ownership (as evidenced by improvements to the homes) • Everyone we spoke to understood the importance of a title deed, that the title deed proved (secured) ownership, even if in a few cases, they were not sure of its status or how to get one • Most people mentioned a better future for their children as an integral part of the importance of homeownership • Residents were aware that there is an acute shortage of housing opportunities and that despite having their homes, they were surrounded by others without adequate housing

Many people understood housing markets around them intuitively – where the better houses were closer to jobs and transportation and what the barriers were – the price, the inconvenience and the cash required to access the houses.

2.5 Using this Report

This report is intended to provide a high-level view of the mining town housing markets overall and by neighbourhood, within areas of particular interest by measuring and comparing housing market performance amongst each other and with the municipality. This report highlights connections and implications from the findings that are of significant interest to the HDA. The report does not seek to understand why things are but offers general ideas based on experience with housing markets and new learning about mining town housing markets from these reports.

The Housing Development Agency | Mogale City Mining Town Housing Market The report findings emphasise opportunity as opposed to risk or failure. Opportunities are defined as conditions or indicators within areas which can show:

• The ways in which areas or markets are behaving positively (such as growing more quickly) or showing strength (such as stability and consistency) • The ways in which areas can be connected to common strategies that promote growth, investment or sustainability (such as proximity to transit or density) • A more accurate picture of the real value of areas in ways that can leverage economic investment (such as equity, lending levels and new registrations) • Better ways in which risk can be measured and accounted for (such as timing, scale, or location risk) • A more comprehensive scope or scale of markets, to better estimate and project market intervention (such as property or population size, absorption rates, or patterns of behaviour) • Ways to challenge and overcome those perceptions or assumptions that might stymie investment, or slow growth

This report is not intended to provide a complete final picture of market conditions or demographic circumstances. It does not reflect conditions in the informal market, nor general attitudes. It is not intended to be the last word on market potential but rather the first: how can current conditions present opportunities for better housing options and improved market performance? Where are places that might be performing better in some ways, which might provide areas of opportunity, and how? The highest and best use of this report is to suggest new ways to support the growth of affordable housing in South African mining towns, by exploring and reconsidering areas for new investment, expanding existing investment and promoting policies and programmes which can support and entice that development. It can also imply the impact of ongoing investment and programmes activities.

2.6 About Formal Housing Markets

This report relies on the South African deeds registry as the basis for analysing local housing markets. Thus, the report only measures the formal housing market, which can be defined as those residential properties which have been formally titled to a specific owner or group of owners. While this excludes a large part of the human housing condition in these towns, the advantage of focusing on the formal housing market is that it offers a better understanding of that part of the residential property market which is most opportune for leverage and investment interventions in ways previously not understood.

Taking into consideration the housing backlog from StatsSA, informal settlements and human mobility, housing markets are quite fluid and difficult to measure. Understanding housing markets more completely is one advantage of the titling initiatives recommended by many housing policy and planning advocates across the Country.

The Housing Development Agency | Mogale City Mining Town Housing Market Report 3. Context

3.1 Municipal and Regional Context:

Key aspects of the city are shown from here for contextual purposes, which have been published on the city’s website. These aspects are summarised from its 2014 IDP to give important insights to the market overall:

• “The largest part of Mogale City is rural in nature, with a specific urban concentration in the south- eastern part of the municipality where it interfaces with the Gauteng urban complex” • ”The CBD is the main business social and administration centre and fulfils a regional function” • ”The areas around Krugersdorp are established middle-to-high income residential areas with the full range of urban amenities, services and facilities” • ”The areas to the south of Krugersdorp, namely , Azaadville and Rietvallel (referred to as the Kagiso complex), are predominantly disadvantaged settlements with limited access to service and facilities” • ”Economy of the municipality is reliant on mining services transport, energy, manufacturing, agriculture and tourism”

3.2 Socio-Economic Profile:

The municipality’s current demographic information is drawn from the HDA Municipal Profiles and from the 2001 – 2011 Census Data:

• ”Mogale City has a population of 362,422” • ”There was a 2.04% population growth between 2001 – 2011” • ”In 2011, over 5% of the population was unemployed and the dependency ratio was 39.4” • ”There are 117,373 households in Rustenburg, with an average household size of 3 people” • ”73.5% live in formal dwellings” • ”78.2% of the households have flush toilets connected to a sewerage system, 55% piped water inside the dwelling, 80% weekly refuse removal and 86% electricity for lighting”

The Housing Development Agency | Mogale City Mining Town Housing Market 4. Context: Mining Sector Overview

This brief industry profile is provided to help understand how the mining sector might affect and engage housing in the mining towns. The mining policies are not specific to the towns – that information is not available. This information has been included because of the mineral mined, the regional location or specific city references (this report does not assess programme efficacy or impact).

Mogale City Local Municipality lies directly west and south of the City of Johannesburg and City of Tshwane Metropolitan areas respectively, and forms part of one of the three district municipalities that make up the peripheral areas of the Gauteng province. To the north, west and south it borders onto the Madibeng, Rustenburg and Randfontein Local Municipalities respectively.

4.2 Mining Industry Profile

• ”Mining contributed 2% to employment in 2009 • ”There are plans to rehabilitate mining in areas surrounding the Mogale City” • ”Krugersdorp was the only town contributing to the mining sector as it was a gold mine, with magnesium” • ”There has barely been any mining activity in Mogale City since 2009, as that was when mining had reached its maturity in the area” • ”The Kagiso complex is physically separated from Krugersdorp’s urban areas by an extensive mining belt that runs roughly in an east-west direction through the area”

4.3 Housing in the Mining Sector

Due to the remote locations of many mining operations, mining companies have long histories of providing housing solutions for its employees, from executive management to miners. Different approaches to housing policies vary and are not discussed in specific terms. Knowing the general Mine Housing Policies assists in understanding the effects on the housing markets in their entirety in the towns. Unlike large metropolitan areas where housing markets grew more organically (with some historical master planning involved), these towns were largely designed intentionally to serve the interests of the mining franchises above them. Thus, the housing markets within each town are driven largely by the business model of the specific mine company, rather than more familiar housing market dynamics. The following is only indicative of each company’s general approach; the housing models in each town are approached differently and more specific to their context. Essentially, understanding the housing options offered by the mining companies is an important factor in understanding local housing markets.

Mogale City is part of the mining belt in Gauteng which, has gold and magnesium resources produced by various mining companies, namely: Harmony Gold Mining Company, Gold Fields and Anglo Gold/Ashanti Gold. Their Mine Housing Policies outline the following:

• ”Harmony Gold Mining Company, Anglo American and Gold Fields all offer a number of different housing options, ranging from housing allowances to houses built for employees” • ”Gold Fields has eliminated hostels and unsustainable mine villages” • ”Harmony Gold pays living-out allowances, which are intended to offer employees with flexible housing options throughout the area” • ”Anglo American committed more than R2 billion to facilitate home ownership and achieve the Mining Charter target of ‘one person per room’ through 2014” • ”Anglo American currently offers a number of different housing options, ranging from housing allowances to houses built for employees”

The Housing Development Agency | Mogale City Mining Town Housing Market Report 5. Context: Housing

The municipality has identified the following challenges and opportunities from its 2014/2015 IDP:

5.1 Housing Challenges:

• Request for more RDP houses • Provision of housing to curb the 66 informal settlements identified in the municipality • Bulk Services are not available • The primary backlog in housing provision is due to unregulated settlement expansion

5.2 Housing Strategies:

• The municipality has developed a five year Housing Plan for the city, as well as a database of existing informal settlements in Mogale City. Create awareness campaigns to inform communities about the status of their informal settlements in the development plans • The recently constructed housing development that will continue in the new 5-year term of Council are Chief Mogale Housing Development, Rietvallei and Ethembalehu etc • Release public land for the purpose of low-income and affordable housing, to support delivery of 400,000 housing units in well-located land • Intergovernmental agreement with metros on informal settlement upgrade, including alignment of MIG (Cities) and Housing Subsidy grants

The Housing Development Agency | Mogale City Mining Town Housing Market Report 7. Key Findings: Housing Market Overview

The Mogale City housing market has grown faster than any other mining town in the past year. This is due to growth in the surrounding towns, jobs along the mining belt and the increasing urbanisation of previously undeveloped or rural areas within the municipality. The mining towns provide stable incomes, new housing investment and, in particular, a thriving housing market. Recent growth has surged a bit, creating an opportunity for markets to be carefully assessed in order to best position the next wave of growth.

Mogale City’s affordability ratio of 2.3 is below the mining town average of 2.8, which means it takes more than two times the average municipality income to afford the average house there. Despite an above-average monthly income (R13 700), there remain large disparities amongst incomes and affordable housing access within the municipality. This may prioritise housing strategies and solutions, which propose creative financing tools and techniques to reduce financial barriers (such as down payments, interest rates and principal requirements) as well as unlocking equity, rather than simply trying to push costs down.

The presence of older Government-sponsored units within the municipality represent an important opportunity to leverage that investment in affordable housing in the years ahead, as owners seek to sell and move up the housing continuum, if opportunities are positioned properly. Average equity in these areas increase purchasing power, putting moderately priced housing within reach of lower income families. This situation can be used to drive developers to build more gap housing, and financiers to finance low cost acquisition loans.

The area has a below-average diversity and integration of housing values and property types, despite growth in some areas, which suggests a market that could be expanded to meet a wider range of needs and expectations. Formal mixed-income housing options that offer much-needed internal cross subsidisation to keep prices affordable will likely do very well, and bodes well for a market less reliant on Government and mining intervention.

Mogale City has experienced a large infusion in lending from non-traditional lenders, which account for a notable amount of all new lending in the municipality in 2008 and subsequent years. With the presence of hundreds of RDP units, it will be an important strategy to encourage traditional and new lenders to develop creative loan programmes targeting those homeowners in order to make it easier for them to sell their homes, unlock the value of those homes, and allow owners to move up the housing continuum.

The opportunity for rental housing development within Mogale City is strong within specific areas. Data indicates that 37% of households are renting. Those areas with greater density, modest incomes and affordability challenges are more likely to support quality, professionally managed, affordable rental housing. Rental housing also provides flexibility to employers and workers as mining markets expand and contract from time to time.

The Housing Development Agency | Mogale City Mining Town Housing Market 8. Housing Performance Profile

8.1 Key Findings: Housing Performance Index

The Mogale City housing market has grown faster than any other mining town in the past year. This is due to growth in the surrounding towns, jobs along the mining belt, and the increasing urbanisation of previously undeveloped or rural areas within the municipality.

Recent growth has surged significantly, creating an opportunity for markets to be carefully assessed in order to best position the next wave of growth.

8.2 Policy Implications

With a market already showing fast growth, such as Mogale City, meeting housing demand will be a crucial factor in stabilising the town through this period of growth. In slow-growth neighbourhoods, where most of the lower priced housing currently exists, housing will need to be built more affordably, but will need to be situated well to better integrate housing markets. Site development initiatives should include rental housing to meet the increased demand.

8.3 Quick Definitions:

Housing Performance Index (HPI): provides an understanding of local housing market performance by tracking six key indicators which most effectively convey fundamental components of real estate markets and then comparing them to the results for the entire municipal property market to determine areas of growth or strength relative to the entire metro.

Housing Performance Profile:this describes housing market performance of local areas as growing (those areas where the index is 6.5 or higher), stable (the index is 4 or higher) or slow (the index is less than 4) compared to the metro in which it is located.

Formal Housing Market: residential properties that are registered on the South African deeds registry. This does not include informal settlements or other houses otherwise not on the deeds registry.

Indicators: suburb-level measures used to convey a more complete understanding of housing markets, sometimes a point of data (such as number of properties), or a calculated factor (such as the housing index or the affordability ratio).

Housing Continuum: a range of housing options which are available to a wide range of income levels, budgets, housing types and ownership opportunities.

Bonded Sales: the total residential properties that were transacted with a bond collateralised or secured by that property.

New Registrations: residential properties that have never appeared on the deeds registry before. This is an important indicator of the growth of a market, whether the property has just been built or was built previously and never registered.

Churn: an indicator of the sales activity within an area similar to turnover, it is the number of residential sales divided by the total number of properties.

The Housing Development Agency | Mogale City Mining Town Housing Market 8.5 Housing Performance Indicators

Six indicators – price and value appreciation (top orange and blue lines), total sales and bonded sales (middle green bars and brown line), change in new properties and churn (bottom red and blue lines) – are the most telling of growing, active housing property markets. The relationship between indicators provides clues as to what may be driving performance, what that might mean for future development potential and how it might affect or be influenced by different housing types, prices or target incomes.

These charts compare the performance of three ownership types, namely freehold, sectional title and estate ownership. The market appears to be growing, differing with most markets across the country. The rising average sales prices (green bars), are consistent with the increase in the number of sales from 2009. Sales have incrementally grown since. Bonded sales, however, dropped from 74% of all sales in 2008 (brown line) to 61% in 2013.

Housing markets are very sensitive to access to credit, so lending information will be helpful in understanding this more closely (see Lending below). Churn rates (blue line) have steadily increased since 2009, indicating higher turnover of existing homes over time. Change in new properties indicates slight fluctuations, likely due to new development in the estate and sectional title housing markets.

The Housing Development Agency | Mogale City Mining Town Housing Market Report 8.6 Housing Performance Indicators by Property Type

Different housing markets perform in different ways, including freehold (free-standing) homes and sectional title (subunits within a single property). The area is predominantly freehold (see Market Size below).

The sectional title market has significantly increased from 2008 to 2013. Sectional title average sales prices (orange line) have been slightly above the average property values (top blue line) for all years, except 2012. Despite the increase in sales, bonded sales have dropped from 80% in 2008 to 51% in 2013.

Unlike the sectional title market, the number of estate sales has gone up and down over the period of 2008 – 2013. Average sales prices (orange line) for estate properties have increased from 2008 to 2013, however residential sales (green bars) have declined from 2012 to 2013, perhaps due to the completion of a new development. Bonded sales (brown line) have decreased from 84% in 2009 to 63% in 2013.

Churn rates (bottom blue lines) for both the sectional title and estate property markets have steadily increased since 2009, indicating higher turnover of existing homes over time. Change in new properties (red lines) indicates spikes, likely due to new development in the estate and sectional title housing markets.

Lending is instrumental in the growth of housing markets, and the ability to access bonds to buy sectional title houses has driven the growth of this housing type. Sectional title is also an important affordable homeownership option.

The Housing Development Agency | Mogale City Mining Town Housing Market 9. Market Size

9.1 Market Size: Key Findings Mogale City’s housing market is essentially three markets: Government-sponsored housing built as part of the National Housing Initiative over the past 20 years, privately traded and financed homes, and informal settlements. Markets are highly segregated between upper-priced, actively selling private growing markets near the city centre, and further flung lower income, non-bonded Government-sponsored developments and informal settlements (not on the deeds registry). The implied demand for housing is extremely high. The current estimated housing backlog represents about 60% of the town’s current total formal residential properties. Demand creates opportunities for new housing supply to be positioned between the existing segregated markets to better integrate the town’s spatial, income and housing markets. 9.2 Policy Implications Government can use this existing investment to identify areas of future development and entice private sector participation. Existing Government investment in housing can be leveraged to guide new development opportunities, if and when those homes can be sold to new buyers and the proceeds then used to purchase new housing further up the housing continuum. For example, Governments might prioritise new development between Government-dominated and private markets for more integration mixed-income sites, and fills spatial gaps within the town. Encouraging the expansion of financing to lower income families will allow for those homes to be sold, and the proceeds used to support housing development further up the housing continuum.

Rapidly changing housing demand driven by mining activities makes a strong case for prioritising quality rental housing. If rental housing is well-situated and convenient to transport and centrally located in dense areas, it can bring social and economic cohesion to housing markets over the longer term.

9.3 Quick Definitions: Market Size: the total number and distribution of important aspects of areas, including average home prices; home values total households in order to inform the potential scale of housing intervention strategies and the impact of proposed development schemes.

Property Value Segment: in order to better understand the performance of housing markets, data has been grouped into four property value bands: properties valued under R250 000; between R250 000 and 000; between R500 000 and R1.2 million and over R1.2 million. This helps one to understand the various trends and strengths inherent in each segment, and to see how properties are integrating across the housing continuum, especially over time.

Government-sponsored Housing: housing which was created through some Government intervention, from site and infrastructure provision, direct construction or finance, such as Site & Service, RDP and BNG. While these homes are not recorded as such on the deeds registry, their presence is estimated based on surrounding registrations, timing, prices and volume of activity. Freehold / Full Title: a permanent and absolute tenure of land or property by a person or entity (such as a corporation or trust) with freedom to dispose of it at will. Freehold or full title describes the assumption of full ownership rights when one owns a property, often including the building and the land it is built on.

Sectional Title: separate ownership of units or sections within a complex or development. These are often comprised of mini subtype houses, semi-detached houses, townhouses, flats or apartments and duet houses. These are governed by the Sectional Titles Act and managed by a body corporate comprised of elected representatives of the sectional title owners in the development. Absorption: the pace with which homes to be developed might be sold in a specific market during a given period of time. This can be calculated by dividing the total number of available homes coming Online by the estimated number of sales per month, often based on the rate of sales nearby.

Households to Properties Ratio: the total number of households (as reported by the census) divided by the total number of residential properties on the deeds registry. This is a quick, easy relative indicator of household density and formality of a suburb as compared to other areas.

The Housing Development Agency | Mogale City Mining Town Housing Market 9.7 Market Size by Households and Income

Understanding the distribution of households and incomes within Mogale City helps to inform scale, development impact, and programme targets. Census data is useful as the only source of demographic information consistently available at the suburb level, and provides interesting insights into local differences.

Areas with high levels of renters (grey bars) also very often have the highest household incomes, however in Mogale City there are only a few (such as Monument and Krugersdorp North). It is suggested that these high levels of renters might be the combination of higher income executives who rent (instead of own) their homes, as well as support staff who rent nearby in backyard accommodation.

Ratios of households (from StatsSA) to properties (from the deeds registry) – the red bar - can show degrees of limited supply or informality. The informal settlements in Eljeesee AH and Mogale City NU have high populations, few registered properties and low incomes.

The Housing Development Agency | Mogale City Mining Town Housing Market Report 10. Market Activity

10.1 Key Findings

Sales of units are concentrated in south central located suburbs in mostly upper-income areas. Sales dropped across the country after 2008, and in Mogale City sales have picked up slowly afterwards, and mostly in higher priced housing.

Bonded sales in lower markets are a small portion of the bonded market. Sales continue to be dominated by repeat sales, with few new housing sales. Property value (the home’s worth) and sales prices are closely related in active markets. In less active markets, sales prices are significantly less than their suggested value.

10.2 Policy Implications

Focus on increasing access to lending, determining what barriers exist to make credit more accessible, either through lower cost products, more flexible terms, and/or inclusion of existing debt into a mortgage loan product.

Create financing products which can bring down the cost of quality rental housing as an affordable alternative to homeownership for lower income families.

10.3 Quick Definitions:

Market Activity: performance of key housing property market indicators over time, such as sales, bonds, registrations and churn.

Market Share: the portion of the market according to certain indicators, such as loans, types of properties, or property values.

Property Value Segment: in order to better understand the performance of housing markets, data has been grouped into four property value bands: properties valued under R250 000; between R250 000 and R500 000; between R500 000 and R1.2 million and over R1.2 million. This helps one to understand the various trends and strengths within each segment, and to see how properties are integrating across the housing continuum, especially over time.

Bonded Sale: a transfer of deed on the deeds registry with an associated bond from a lender, including the property as collateral for the bond.

New Sale / New Registration: the appearance of a residential property on the deeds registry for the first time. It might include new construction or previously existing units being recorded for the first time (such as previously built RDP homes).

Resale / Repeat Sales: the sale or transaction of a property which has existed on the deeds registry before (as opposed to a new sale or new registration).

The Housing Development Agency | Mogale City Mining Town Housing Market 10.4 Sales and Bonded Sales by Property Value Segments

On average, about 79% of all residential sales and 85% of bonded sales in Mogale City have been over R500 000 (the red and orange sections). Market share (the portion of the total) by property value segment has changed since 2008, suggesting an evolving housing market. The relationship between sales and bonds shows the importance of access to credit to growing housing markets, in particular the lower valued segments. The share of bonded sales under R500 000 has dropped over time, from 20% of all sales in 2008 to 11% in 2011. This might be due to credit indebtedness, which disproportionately impacts lower income borrowers, or lack of access to affordable homes with which to buy. Policies which help expand access to credit and provide more housing opportunities under R500 000, in the lower bands, can expand sales within that band.

The Housing Development Agency | Mogale City Mining Town Housing Market Report 10.7 Sales by New and Repeat Sales

An important distinction in market performance is the sale of new homes (which have never appeared on the deeds registry) and the resale of existing homes. The chart shows new (green) and repeat sales (orange) by suburb. In most mining towns, new registrations are clustered in only a few suburbs. Several suburbs experienced new sales in Mogale City, however the most sales appear to be within the Homes Haven area.

New sales can also show the recent registration of Government-sponsored housing investment. An important point is to recognise the impact of newly registered Government investment in housing. Often these registrations may be perceived as a market distortion, but the deeds issued on Government-sponsored housing represent real assets which now can be traded and loaned against, and are key to moving up the housing ladder. Thus, the housing market has in fact grown.

Suburbs with no data reflect areas with no sales or new registrations.

The Housing Development Agency | Mogale City Mining Town Housing Market 10.8 Market Activity amongst New and Repeat Sales

The growth and maturity of housing markets can often be found by comparing new homes and resales over time. The growth of existing home sales (the orange line) indicates sustained interest of housing markets by borrowers and lenders. The thicker lines reflect areas with more sales.

Often volumes of new homes in prior years become resales in later years (for example, Kagiso Ext 9’s uptick of resales in 2011). Understanding how mining companies create new units helps to understand their existing and potential contribution to expand the local housing economy.

The Housing Development Agency | Mogale City Mining Town Housing Market 10.10 Change in New and Repeat Sales

This chart shows the specific rate of activity of new and repeat sales from 2012 to 2013. As seen before, new sales were concentrated in Homes Haven.

Many of the developments built by the Government are heading into their 8th year, and become eligible for resale by their owners. By understanding when those units come Online for resale, Government can align policies, which encourage sale and development nearby, which can help leverage that prior investment, expand housing options and stimulate movement up the next rung up the housing ladder. Resales are an important means of recycling existing homes to make more housing options available.

Suburbs with no information had no residential sales in the past two years.

The Housing Development Agency | Mogale City Mining Town Housing Market Report 11. Lending Activity

11.1 Key Findings

Lending is highly concentrated in Mogale City by area and loan size. Bonded sales are almost entirely concentrated in housing and sales over R500 000, with those loans concentrated in the south centre of the city’s higher priced housing markets. While the share of lending by each of the four major banks in the country has remained consistent, lending from non-traditional lenders increased in Mogale City from 2009 to 2013, perhaps due to expanded lending by the existing institutions.

11.12 Policy Implications

Policies and programmes should target expanding access to credit, including the creation of new funds, with broader investment guidelines and possibilities, and small loan programmes with which to make financing more accessible to lower income households. Existing lenders should take lower incomes into account by reducing finance costs.

Loans to entice the development of more middle-market housing would create more integrated markets.

Programmes should make creative finance available for rental projects as well.

11.3 Quick Definitions:

Lending Activity: the performance of key lending indicators over time, such as bond volume, new loans and bonded sales, by lending institution.

Portfolio Size: the total number and value of loans given out by particular lending institutions in the study area

Property Value Segment: in order to better understand the performance of housing markets, data has been grouped into four property value bands: properties valued under R250 000; between R250 000 and R500 000; between R500 000 and R1.2 million and over R1.2 million. This helps one to understand the various trends and strengths inherent in each segment, and to see how properties are integrating across the housing continuum, especially over time.

Residential Bond: a loan made for the intention of acquiring a property, which is secured by the title to the property. These are determined by the property address and the timing with which bonds and sales transactions are recorded on the deeds registry.

The Housing Development Agency | Mogale City Mining Town Housing Market Report 11.5 New Loans by Lender

As markets shift, different lenders respond in different ways. These maps show the previous bar charts on a map. The first chart (all loans by lender) is represented on the top map. All loans made in 2013 (the second chart) is shown on the lower map. By comparing the two maps, it’s possible to see where lenders invested loans in the last year (pies in the bottom map), and how that has changed from their overall portfolio in that suburb (pies in the top map). In the top map, areas including Muldersdrift AH, Krugersdorp Central and Magalies SP have bonds from several lenders, yet there is a notable decrease in lending in 2013.

Non-traditional lenders, such as private equity funds and employer lenders, have more flexible regulatory environments and more creative, competitive financing tools. It will be important for Government to engage these investors to ease access to credit, lower costs of financing and share in the commitment towards growing housing markets in the mining towns.

The areas with no dots have no residential properties on the deeds registry – they are farms or open space, mines or power plants, or informal settlements.

The Housing Development Agency | Mogale City Mining Town Housing Market Report Market Share by Lender: All Residential Bonds 11.6 Market Share Mogale City, all loans, by suburb by lender, through 2013

Rietfontein AH Understanding market share at the local level is key to understanding the potential for end-user finance, where gaps might exist, and how to make the case for more lending. Most suburbs in Mogale City experienced some lending over the past six years. However, 9 suburbs out of 79 show no lending at all over the six year period.

Lindley AH Mogale City NU Comparing lending over time and

Magaliesburg SP by suburb also shows which lenders perceive value or risk.

The Housing Development Agency | Mogale City Mining Town Housing Market 12. Leverage

12.1 Key Findings

The presence of older Government-sponsored units within the municipality represent an important opportunity to leverage that investment in affordable housing in the years ahead, as owners seek to sell and move up the housing continuum, if opportunities are positioned properly. About 11% of all registered properties in Mogale City were sponsored by the Government. The value of these homes if sold in the private market can be applied towards the cost of a new home.

This situation can be used to drive developers to build more gap housing, and financiers to finance low cost acquisition loans.

12.2 Policy Implications

Policies should focus on enticing developers to build more housing in the gap market, and encourage lending to the RDP and other lower cost home markets.

To encourage an increase in the supply of gap housing, Government can unlock sites, supply infrastructure or grants, or hook-up fee discounts. Government can also reduce the cost of construction finance, which can all be passed down to the buyers in the form of lower sales prices.

Government can create programmes using funds pooled from a range of Government and private sector partners, which provide bonds for small properties, and offset risks through loan guarantees, loan loss reserves, and interest rate discounts. Funds can also organise to implement homebuyer counselling, debt consolidation and moderate rehab costs of the existing home to ensure loan performance of the portfolio.

These programmes would work together in the mining towns to create better social, housing and economic integration. In Mogale City, this might be areas between Homes Haven and Sterkfontein, higher priced more active markets, and Kagiso Central.

Leverage: the ability to use the percentage of the property that has been paid off as a down payment for another property.

Equity: the value of the residential property less the outstanding balance of the bond. This represents the value of ownership built up in a property, and is often used as the down payment for the owner’s next house purchased up the housing ladder.

The Housing Development Agency | Mogale City Mining Town Housing Market Report 13. Affordability Profile

13.1 Key Findings

Mogale City’s affordability ratio of 2.2 is below the mining town average of 2.8, which means that it takes a little more than two times the average municipality income to afford the average house there. Despite an above-average monthly income, there remain large disparities among incomes and affordable housing access in certain areas within the municipality. In some areas, sales prices used to determine affordability are very low, probably the result of lack of credit access, forcing sellers to sell for whatever cash might be offered regardless of how much the house may be worth.

13.2 Policy Implications

Affordability constraints due to below-average incomes can be addressed through housing strategies and solutions, which propose creative financing tools and techniques can reduce financial barriers (such as down payments, interest rates and principal requirements) as well as unlocking equity, rather than simply trying to push costs down.

Lowering the cost of financing can also increase the amount that can be borrowed, which can increase sales prices and the amount of equity a home seller will be able to access to buy their next home.

Lack of adequate affordable supply in areas with very low incomes can often be quickly addressed through the careful considered provision of well-located quality rental housing.

13.3 Quick Definitions:

Affordability: affordability is generally defined as the ability to allocate less than 25-30% of a household’s monthly income towards housing costs. While upper income families’ income enables them to cover the cost of producing and selling a housing unit and thus provides many housing options, lower income families struggle because their income often does not adequately cover the cost of producing and selling a housing unit. Supply is limited and others must collaborate to provide decent affordable housing.

Affordability Ratio: the purchasing power of local incomes to afford local sales prices. The local average sales price is divided by the target house price. This shows the relationship between local incomes and local sales prices – a larger number means that local sales prices are harder for local incomes to afford, implying a mismatch between local housing options and residents.

Housing Gap: the shortfall between the target house price a household can afford and the sales price (or construction cost) of a house. This can be calculated by the difference between the target affordable price and the cost or price of the house.

Target House Price: the sales price affordable to local households, which is calculated using the average area median income available for housing (25% of monthly income) using standard underwriting criteria (typically 20 year amortization at 11%, with 5% down).

39

The Housing Development Agency | Mogale City Mining Town Housing Market 13.4 Affordability

Actual affordability relies on understanding local household income to determine what is reasonably afforded by existing residents, how much of a gap exists and what is required to ensure more realistic affordability. The Affordability Ratio is determined by dividing the purchase price affordable to the average household income by the average sales price. Nationally, it takes three times the average income to afford the average sales price. This doesn’t mean that families are paying that, it means that most homes on the deeds registry are not affordable to the majority of South Africans. But this indicator provides an important benchmark, by providing a sense of affordability levels, and how well local markets might be meeting the needs of local residents.

In Mogale City, there appear to be gaps in affordability in many markets, as shown by the negative price gap, the amount by which local sales prices are higher than what’s affordable to local residents. Price gaps in Van Wyks Restant AH and Sterkfontein are negative, perhaps the result of more recent housing development which drove up recent sales prices past income levels.

Introducing new products or strategies are more likely to be sustainable if they are responsive to current residents. The target home price in column 2 can also be compared to estimated potential per-unit construction costs to determine the amount of subsidy which may be required to build and sell the units to local residents.

The Housing Development Agency | Mogale City Mining Town Housing Market Report 13.5 Mind the Gap

This chart is identical to the previous chart but shows bar lines to better visualise differences across the area. These tables measure relative affordability for each suburb in the target area in three ways: starting with the average income (column 1), it calculates the average sales price affordable to the average family using standard underwriting terms (5% down, 11% for 20 years, up to 25% of household income, column 2). It compares that to the area’s average sales price (column 3). Column 4 (“Affordable Price Gap”) shows the difference between the average sales price and the local target (affordable) house price. Column 5 divides the two values to show the affordability ratio, the number of times it might take the local income to afford the local sales price. For example, in Kagiso SP, it takes 4.2 times the average income to afford the average sales price.

In Mogale City, the average income is about R13 700, the average target house price is R362 000 (how much house that income can afford), and the average sales price is R830 000. Thus, in 2013, it took over twice the average income to afford the average house. These very high level indicators are useful when comparing affordability, to see which areas are more or less affordable. This helps one to understand how housing strategies need to address affordability within the town, including what resources or policies might be required to help fill these gaps (ie affordable financing, buyer subsidies).

When affordability is an issue, perhaps equity of existing homeowners can help fund the gap. Policies will need to encourage the sale of lower cost homes that can allow housing purchases further upstream for lower income households.

The Housing Development Agency | Mogale City Mining Town Housing Market Report 14. Rental Index

14.1 Key Findings

According to the 2011 StatsSA census, 37% of households rent in Mogale City, which is slightly above the average range of 30% amongst the mining towns in the study.

The opportunity for rental housing development within Mogale City is strong within specific areas. Those areas with greater density, modest incomes, and affordability challenges are more likely to support quality, professionally managed and affordable rental housing. Rental housing also provides flexibility to employers and workers as mining markets expand and contract from time to time.

14.2 Policy Implications

Due to the cyclical, commodity and demand-driven nature of these towns’ primary industry, rental housing becomes a very important housing solution.

Rapidly changing housing demand driven by mining activities makes a strong case for prioritising quality rental housing. If rental housing is well-situated and convenient to transport and centrally located in dense areas, it can bring social and economic cohesion and vibrancy to housing markets over the longer term.

Densifying housing markets requires infrastructure upgrades and financial mechanisms which provide for long-term affordability and sustainability.

14.3 Quick Definitions:

Rental Index: A tool used to measure the potential suitability of local areas for rental housing, as measured by a group of five indicators which support rental housing, including density; area median income; the affordability ratio and market growth as measured by the Housing Performance Index. A higher score implies greater success for rental housing.

Affordability Ratio: the purchasing power of local incomes to afford local sales prices. The local average sales price is divided by the target house price. This shows the relationship between local incomes and local sales prices – a larger number means that local sales prices are harder for local incomes to afford, implying a mismatch between local housing options and residents.

Area Median Income: the percentage of the average local income to the municipal average income, which allows for understanding the income relative to the market overall, and across many municipalities.

Housing Performance Index: the growth of the local suburb in six key housing market indicators as compared to the municipality growth. A higher number implies more growth.

Percent Households Renting: the number of surveyed households who rent divided by the total number of households, per StatsSA census 2011. This includes everything from bedrooms and backyard shacks to single family homes and sectional title units.

Population Density: the number of people per square hectare of the suburb, as provided by StatsSA.

Tenure: the terms under which land or buildings are held or occupied, e.g. rental, ownership etc.

The map shows those areas more dense than others, with moderate incomes and housing market growth, all important factors when considering the placement and promotion of rental housing. In Mogale City, several areas (such as Kagiso Ext 8, Magaliesburg SP and Zwaneville) appear as high rental areas.

With security of tenure through a lease agreement, residents have access to quality, accountable property management and consistent utility access, and can even build up their credit history with positive rent and utility accounts. Because rental housing providers must locate their properties competitively to ensure monthly occupancy, rental housing provides affordable access to transport hubs, jobs and community services.

The definitions of the concepts used in this profile are set out in alphabetical order below.

15.1 Affordable

Traditionally, affordable refers to housing or areas with prices or values below the overall market which target below- average incomes. It is often defined as R500 000 or less (but can be higher or lower depending on intent) because this is the amount that a household earning less than R16 000 on average can afford, which is the target limit of many Government subsidy schemes.Affordability is the relationship between the cost of housing (a mortgage bond payment or rent) and the income of the tenant or owner. Affordable housing is that which can be rented or purchased within certain constraints: in this report, with a mortgage equal to 28% of the borrower’s income, at 11% over 20 years, with 5% of the sales price paid as down-payment. Areas where the average income can afford the average sales price or more, are considered affordable.

15.2 Affordability Ratio

This ratio measures relative affordability by comparing the AVERAGE sales price to the average income within the same area – higher ratios meaning less affordability. The average sales price is divided by the AFFORDABLE sales price, which is calculated as the present value of typical mortgage terms using 28% of the average income (95% of the average sale price, at 11% for 20 years). A ratio of 1 means that the average home price is exactly equal to the average household income. Ratios over 1 represent the number of times by which the average income must be increased to afford the average home.

15.3 Appreciation

The rate, or percent change over time between two values (most often price or value) is calculated by dividing the difference between the beginning and end values of the property in the timeframe by the beginning value. The result is the percent by which the property value or price changed. It is a valuable means of comparing the rate of change across very different property markets, areas or market sizes.

15.4 Average

The result obtained by adding several amounts together and then dividing this total by the number of amounts. For instance, average sales price is calculated by adding up all sales within an area and dividing this total by the total number of sales within an area. The average is useful for comparing and understanding different areas, market sizes, and property types.

15.5 Benchmark

An indicator that is calculated in the same way across a larger level (such as national or municipal levels) to compare with smaller areas (such as main places or suburbs). Benchmarks are useful for understanding the performance of housing markets because they provide a consistent means of comparing markets to each other and to larger areas. For example, local markets perceived as having modest appreciation rates may actually be growing quickly when compared with other areas, the metro or the country as a whole. Benchmarks are a key component of the Housing Performance Index, which uses them to determine whether local areas or metros are changing faster than; about the same as; or slower than the metros or the country.

The Housing Development Agency | Mogale City Mining Town Housing Market 15.6 Bonded Sale

A sales transaction transferring ownership of a property which includes an associated mortgage bond, used by the buyer to purchase that property and which the lender requires to be secured by that property. Bonded sales reflect lender investment in an area and perceptions of market strength and risk levels.

15.7 Churn

This refers to the total number of homes sold within an area over a one-year period divided by the number of homes within that area. Similar to turnover, churn represents active market interest, a large pool of eligible buyers and willing sellers, and ready access to mortgage financing. In affordable areas, lower churn can reflect reduced housing mobility rather than less marketability, as the result of fewer upward housing options for potential sellers, and less access to bond financing for potential buyers. Other indicators (such as bond rates or types; loan to values; equity rates and income) can help differentiate marketability from pent-up market mobility.

15.8 Equity

The value of ownership interest in a property, primarily the current VALUE of a property minus the current value of any bonds or other claims on the property. Equity value grows as mortgage balances are paid down and property values increase. Equity is realised when a house is sold and is most often used to purchase another property, by either increasing the amount available to purchase or lowering monthly mortgage payments (or both). Individual circumstances within neighbourhoods may vary widely, but areas with higher aggregate levels of equity represent greater opportunity for upward mobility, both for existing residents who can sell and invest the equity in a new home and for lower income households able to purchase the existing home.

15.9 Equity Growth

The rate at which an owner or investor’s equity value has changed over time, calculated by dividing the difference between the values of equity at the beginning and end of the period by the beginning year’s equity value. Growth in equity (along with income levels) can be used to determine market potential, as equity significantly boosts the purchasing power of potential buyers. Circumstances that increase equity return include prices that appreciate faster than debt is paid down, less debt, and registrations of new properties with no debt.

15.10 Formal Housing market

A formal housing market is an area where owners sell or otherwise transfer residential properties (which have been registered on the national title and deed registry) to willing buyers who become the legal owners of those properties. Housing markets also include residences that are rented, traded, bartered or otherwise swapped, or legally occupied. This report tracks formal housing markets, as it only uses actual sales reflected on the South African deeds registry. It is estimated that 25 – 50% of all properties in South Africa are not registered.

15.11 Government-sponsored housing

Housing which was created through some government intervention, from site and infrastructure provision, direct construction or finance, such as Site & Service, RDP and BNG. While these homes are not recorded as such on the deeds registry, their presence is estimated based on surrounding registrations, timing, prices, and volume of activity.

15.12 Housing Continuum

The housing continuum includes all ranges and options of housing, from temporary shelter and informal housing to the highest variety of housing ownership and occupancy models and prices. A continuum implies a continuous, connected marketplace of housing options, which serve the full range of conceivable housing demands as people’s lifestyles and life circumstances change over time. In reality, most housing markets are an uneven distribution of housing supply and housing demand.

The Housing Development Agency | Mogale City Mining Town Housing Market Report 15.13 Leverage

Leverage is the practice of purchasing something by borrowing part of the total cost and it is measured by the degree to which a buyer has borrowed funds to purchase a home. Also called gearing, leverage can be measured in several ways (such as loan to value or equity ratio) but all compare bond amounts to the housing value. Generally, homes or neighbourhoods that are highly leveraged are understood to be higher risk because owners lose less equity if they default. Areas with lower leverage rates are generally considered as being more attractive because lenders have less risk, while owners have more invested and have more potential EQUITY to invest in new housing options.

15.14 Market Segment

This refers to the aggregate of all properties within a certain Rand value. Properties are grouped by their value to better understand the unique dynamics of these market segments. Values are divided into four bands: values under R250 000; between R250 000 and R500 000; R500 000 to R1.2 million; and over R1.2 million. Generally, properties at or below R500 000 are considered affordable because the estimated monthly housing cost (R15 000 to R16 000) is considered the maximum income eligible for many Government subsidy programmes, above which potential buyers must access the unsubsidised housing market.

15.15 Market Share

Market share is the percentage of a market accounted for by a specific entity in that market. Lending market share is determined by the number of all loans in an area or bond portfolio originated or held by a single institution, divided by the total number of bonds in the area or portfolio. Market share can reflect the business model or the prevailing attitudes of particular lenders towards opportunity within certain areas. Lenders track their market share by area and value carefully: too high could mean that they are at greater risk if values decrease, while too low means that the lender may be losing business to competitors.

15.16 Rental Index

A score calculated for each suburb, to measure the potential suitability of local areas for rental housing, as measured by a basket of six indicators which are more favourable towards rental housing. A higher score, between 1 and 10, implies a greater likelihood of success. These indicators include density, the number of households currently renting, area median income, the affordability ratio, households to properties ratio and market growth as measured by the housing performance index. The index gives higher weight to aspects more suitable to rental housing, such as density and income, and moderate weight to the current number of households renting (as reported to the census), the local income as a percentage of the municipal median income, affordability (the relationship between local incomes and sales prices) and the number of households in the area to formal housing units on the deeds registry.

15.17 Suburb

A neighbourhood (within or beyond the central metropolitan area), with an identifiable name, often socially accepted borders and common characteristics. This report uses suburb boundaries as established and demarcated by StatsSA (and referred to in its documentation as sub-places). In 2011, there were about 22 000 sub-places within South Africa.

15.18 Value or Worth

The value of a property as determined by several factors, including recent comparable sales nearby, CHURN, lending activity in the area, specific and area property details such as the size, age and amenities. A property’s worth is often related to the amount of information available to make an appropriate determination, which is a contributing factor in undervaluing affordable areas where details on formal market activity are inconsistent. This study uses Lightstone’s (www.lightstone.co.za) proprietary valuation methodology to determine value. 16. Source List
