Donna Favorito, Senior Regional Finance and Administration Officer“Africrest and their management team spent time understanding our business and property needs while negotiating on our new premises. This allowed them to tailor make a rental solution that worked with our long-term plans and current financial situation. Under very tight deadlines, they made sure we could find a fair and workable solution for both parties for all challenges that presented themselves during the negotiations.”
Ricky Treger, Joint Group Managing Director"Our offices are an extension of who we are as a company and how we represent ourselves in the physical world. Africrest understand this ethos and have been very accommodating in ensuring that the smallest details are attended to."
Tony Koutakis, CEO of Ignite"Working with Africrest has been a fruitful and seamless experience. We were attracted by the tenant partnership model which has allowed Sorbet to continue growing our business without constraining our capital while, at the same time, enjoying the benefits of having partial ownership in our property"

Guy Brooks, CEO and Founder of CSS"It is energising to (be in) a building where all your neighbouring tenants are in a creative space, music, television, fashion.

Randall Abrahams, MD of Universal Music"SYNAQ has grown exponentially and we required new offices for our expansion plans. The Africrest team assisted with the sourcing, negotiation and integration into our new home. We are thrilled to have created a unique innovative space that will further help us shake up the cloud service industry in South Africa."
David Jacobson, Managing Director of SYNAQ"New Africa Control Engineering (Pty) Ltd first introduction to Africrest Properties was in 2014. During this time we have found them to be very amicable and reasonable in all matters but our appreciation of them grew substantially when our property needs drastically altered and even though we were tied into a lease, their ability to aid and accommodate our new requirements went above and beyond our expectations. We confidently recommend Africrest Properties to anyone as an ethical and professional property company. Their genuine interest in helping us was a welcome change in today’s times."
Alan Taylor, Director of New Africa Control Engineering (Pty) Ltd’s“One of the things that have impressed me most about Africrest is how responsive they are to our queries. We always receive a reply promptly and they actually care about making us feel comfortable in our home. Unlike most landlords, we are treated like a valued resident, rather than just another tenant.”
