Cape Town CBD Overview
The Cape Town Central Business District remains the beating heart of the city's commercial activity.

Current asking rentals are typically around R90 - R240 per m², with exact terms depending on building grade, fit-out, parking and lease structure. R154 per m² is a useful benchmark for comparing office opportunities in this node. Q1 2026 public office-node data shows Cape Town CBD vacancy at 11.4%, above the 6.0% metro average, while better-located and upgraded buildings continue to draw tenant interest. Source basis: Q1 2026 SAPOA / MSCI / Gmaven office-node summary; figures should be read as asking-market indicators, not guaranteed achieved rentals.
