Five-year plan and reinvigorated group strategy for growth and innovation is set to position Pan-African professional real-estate services provider Broll Property Group to revolutionise the property sector in South Africa and across the continent. Back in 1975, Broll started out as an investor-focused business by providing property management and leasing services. It was for this reason that the Group launched new service lines during Covid-19, including Broll Risk Management, Internal Developers (Workplace Strategy) and Business Solutions Specialists, and has continued to secure new business during the pandemic.
There has been a lot of commentary about the dire state of the property market across the continent recently. In South Africa, the discourse is dominated by high vacancy levels and tenants not going back to their offices. However, at the end of the day, the real estate sector is still a sector confident of the many opportunities that the sector still presents to the market. The sector may continue in a different form, but without a doubt there will still be a place for the real estate sector in rebuilding our economy. The current remote working environment was a ‘forced change’ that would likely not have been embraced as enthusiastically if it were not for Covid-19 accelerating such a trend.
