The June 2025 Johannesburg condo snapshot is due for publication, but I am inclined to label it provisional rather than present a timely sample as a settled market result.
The draft reports 77 days on market, asking-price movement of +3.8% and apparent financing sensitivity around ZAR 21,840,000. These figures are not an official index. A simple change in inventory could produce the same pattern: for example, more high-priced condos entering the sample could lift the average asking figure even if no existing listing increased its price.
Before revising it, I want to separate property types and neighbourhoods, define the observation period, and check changes in available stock against completed sales. Contributions should include a source where possible; otherwise they need to be identified as local observations. The published version should also state its revision date so readers can see which figures remain provisional.
