At the conference, to be held tomorrow and on Friday at the Sandton Convention Centre in Sandton, speakers will also focus on how strategies and investment markets have changed in the past decade, and how this has affected performance fundamentals.

Speakers include Tony Key, real estate economics professor at Cass Business School in the UK; Wylie Greig, senior adviser at IPD in the US; and Kgaogelo Mamabolo, Viruly Consulting property economist and senior researcher.

IPD SA MD Stan Garrun says they hope to show "substantial evidence (SA’s) property market is healthy and sustainable".
