Randburg Market Insights with Lisa Sink from Meridian Realty

The Randburg property market continues to show healthy buyer activity, with particular strength in Randpark Ridge, Boskruin, Bromhof, Northwold, and Sundowner. We spoke to Lisa Sink, a verified agent from Meridian Realty, to unpack what’s driving demand, which price bands are performing best, and how sellers can position their homes for success.
🔹 Which Randburg suburbs are currently seeing the most buyer interest?
“Right now, we’re seeing strong demand across all five suburbs,” says Lisa.
“Randpark Ridge, Boskruin, and Bromhof are especially popular with families looking for larger homes close to good schools and amenities. Northwold and Sundowner are also attracting steady interest, particularly among buyers looking for well-priced lock-up-and-go options.”
She adds that the variety of accommodation on offer across these suburbs — from sectional title units and estate living to free-standing family homes — makes the Randburg area appealing to first-time buyers, growing families, and those looking to scale up or down.
🔹 What price ranges are performing best in Randburg right now?
“Most activity is happening in the R1 million to R2.5 million range,” explains Lisa.
“Sectional title units priced between R900,000 and R1.4 million are generating strong interest, as are larger freehold homes realistically priced under R2.5 million.”
Homes that are accurately priced tend to attract more viewings and sell faster, she notes — especially when they’re well-presented and marketed professionally.
🔹 What are the most common mistakes Randburg sellers make when listing?
“The biggest mistake is overpricing, which causes homes to sit unsold and lose buyer interest,” Lisa cautions.
“Sellers also sometimes neglect presentation — things like decluttering, garden upkeep, or fixing small issues that buyers notice right away.”
Another common pitfall is poor marketing.
“Low-quality photos or failing to highlight lifestyle benefits can really hurt your listing. Buyers want to picture themselves living there — that emotional connection matters.”
🔹 What advice would you give to maximise value when selling in Randburg?
“Price your home realistically from the start, based on recent verified sales in your suburb,” says Lisa.
“Invest in presentation — a neat garden, a fresh coat of paint, and a decluttered interior go a long way. Use professional marketing with strong visuals and highlight what makes your suburb attractive — schools, safety, and accessibility.”
She adds that these simple steps can make a big difference:
“The right pricing and presentation usually mean quicker offers and better results.”
Final Thoughts
Randburg’s enduring appeal lies in its convenience, lifestyle variety, and affordability — and with the right strategy, sellers can achieve standout results in a competitive market.
