Private Property joins forces with the North Coast Courier

It’s official! Private Property has announced the conclusion of an exciting new deal that saw this industry leading name undergo a change in ownership.

A consortium of proudly South African buyers, spearheaded by media giant, Caxton CTP (partner of the North Coast Courier), have taken the reins of the property portal over from the U.S. based OAM – a private equity controlled company.

“We are confident that the new partnership will produce truly exceptional results, and will continue to move from strength to strength” said Simon Bray, CEO of Private Property.

It is with this in mind that The North Coast Courier and Private Property are pleased to inform all existing and new local estate agents and property clients that their listings is now searchable on the Courier’s website.

This means that ‘Properties in Ballito’ is now searchable on The North Coast Courier website as well as on Private Property, thereby leveraging off the vast online audiences of both entities to create even more value for buyers, agents and advertisers.

The Courier’s successful monthly property supplement will also now be published under the Private Property banner, thereby creating an unmatched print and online marketing platform to the local property industry.

The deal was concluded with the assistance of the industry body, Real Estate Business Owners of South Africa, and was approved by the Competitions Commission.

“Private Property has grown strongly over the past three years, achieving excellent results as a digital platform and now holds a significant position in the South African market. We are really pleased that we could conclude a deal that maintains our independence and affords us the opportunity to enhance the role that technology can play in the real estate industry,” Bray noted.

Simon added, “This is good news for everybody. For Private Property, we get to keep doing what we are passionate about: building a great service for property shoppers. For the industry, it ensures a vibrant, competitive environment with at least two big platforms offering advertising services.”
