Umhlanga's Millennial Magnet: A New Development for Young Professionals

Umhlanga, KwaZulu-Natal, is one of South Africa's fastest-growing towns, and for good reason. With its stunning coastline, thriving business node, and growing population of young professionals, Umhlanga has become the ultimate destination for those seeking a forward-thinking and on-the-go lifestyle.

What Makes Umhlanga a Prime Investment Hub?

And now, with the completion of The Millennial, a new development by Avoca Developments, Umhlanga has even more to offer. Umhlanga has quickly evolved into one of South Africa’s fastest-growing towns. Thanks to the King Shaka International Airport opening in 2010, Umhlanga's development skyrocketed, transforming it from a small holiday spot to a dynamic business and tourism hub.

This place is booming! With major corporations like Aspen and Unilever calling Umhlanga home, it's no surprise that the town's commercial sector is expanding rapidly. The area is buzzing with young professionals seeking a fast-paced lifestyle and affordable housing in a vibrant community.

Another reason for Umhlanga's popularity is its affordable housing market. Compared to other major cities in South Africa, such as Cape Town, Umhlanga offers a more affordable option for homebuyers. This has made it possible for young professionals to buy their first homes and for families to upgrade to larger homes.

Umhlanga also has a lot to offer its residents in terms of lifestyle and amenities. The town has a number of excellent schools, shopping malls, restaurants, and bars. There are also many opportunities for outdoor recreation, such as swimming, surfing, and hiking.

Overall, Umhlanga is a thriving town with endless opportunities for its residents and investors alike.

The Millennial: A New Development in Umhlanga

The Millennial is a new development in Umhlanga that is designed to meet the needs of young professionals and families. The development offers a variety of amenities, including a swimming pool, gym, and rooftop terrace. The apartments are also designed to be energy-efficient and environmentally friendly.

Why The Millennial Stands Out

Strategic Location: Nestled close to shopping centres, hospitals, schools, and the stunning Umhlanga beaches, The Millennial guarantees a lifestyle of convenience and accessibility.
Eco-Friendly Design: Embracing environmentally friendly materials and green-rated construction, The Millennial ensures lower carbon emissions and reduced utility costs for its residents.
Rental Income Potential: With Umhlanga's increasing appeal and a steady inflow of new residents, investing in The Millennial through EasyProperties offers a lucrative opportunity. These units are set to capitalise on the short-stay accommodation market, offering higher returns from visitors seeking business or leisure stays in Umhlanga.

EasyProperties is a juristic representative of First World Trader (Pty) Ltd t/a EasyEquities which is an authorized Financial Services Provider (FSP number 22588). All trades on the EasyProperties platform are subject to the legal terms and conditions to which you agree to be bound. The EasyProperties platform enables users to invest in securities which includes whole shares and fractional share rights (FSRs). EasyProperties acts an agent for the issue of whole shares, where the investor is the registered owner of those shares, entitled to dividends, participation in corporate actions and all the economic benefits and risks associated with share ownership.

In respect of FSRs, EasyEquities acts as principal to a contract for difference issued to the investor, where the investor will have a contractual claim against EasyEquities to the economic benefits and risks associated with share ownership (price movements and dividends) without having ownership rights in the underlying share. Fractional share rights (FSRs) which are issued through a contract for difference, are an over the counter derivative. Unlike whole shares, FSRs do not carry any voting rights. As the investor makes further investments in FSRs and ultimately ends up with a whole share, the contract for difference is closed out and ownership whole share is delivered to the investor.

The availability of any share on the EasyProperties platform is based on various factors but is not an indication of value and does not mean that any share is an appropriate investment for you. The value of a share is not guaranteed. The value can go down as well as up due to variable market factors. An investor may not recoup the full amount invested.
