• Buildings completed in South Africa: floor area and dwellings by province and type of building

  How many new homes, and how much new floor space, larger municipalities recorded as completed each month since January 2000, for South Africa and each of the nine provinces. It counts completed dwelling-houses (smaller than 80 square metres, and 80 square metres or more) and flats and townhouses, and gives the floor area in square metres of these and of other completed buildings: other residential buildings, office and banking space, shopping space, industrial and warehouse space, and additions and alterations. Because it measures buildings actually finished rather than planned, it shows the new supply of homes and commercial space reaching the market, and the split by house size shows the balance between smaller and larger homes.
