On the property at present, she says, are:   ·         A 400 m2 factory which is currently used as a church and which brings in a monthly rental of R11,500 (inclusive of water and electricity costs).   ·         A second factory with 1,170 m2 of lettable space currently occupied by the owner.   ·         An office block consisting of eight offices and a ground floor flat. These together comprise 184 m2 and the occupant in the flat (a family member) pays no rent at the moment.   ·         Two rondavels of 50 m2 and 120 m2, currently used as a crèche but also paying no rent. Jovanovski says that the premises are multi-functional and the property could very adequately serve as a backpackers’ lodge or ideally be converted into mini factory units. The owner has applied for sub-division, which could significantly enhance the value of this property. Rawson Auctions do not charge a bidder’s registration fee, but the accepted bidder has to pay 5% deposit of the realized sales price on the fall of the hammer and 10% commission plus VAT over and above the purchase price to the auctioneers.  This fee, too, is due on the fall of the hammer.  ##### For more information, email [marketing@rawsonproperties.com](mailto:marketing@rawsonproperties.com) or visit [www.rawson.co.za](https://www.rawson.co.za/) for the latest market tips and industry news. ## Rawson ### Leave a comment ### More Posts Jul 02, 2026 #### [Stock shortage puts Western Cape sellers in the driving seat](https://blog.rawson.co.za/stock-shortage-puts-western-cape-sellers-in-the-driving-seat) advice [![Share on Facebook](https://blog.rawson.co.za/hs-fs/hubfs/social-uploaded-images/Facebook%20Icons.png?width=24&name=Facebook%20Icons.png)](http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.rawson.co.za%2Fsaldanha-bay-property-could-benefit-greatly-from-saldanha-bays-growing-popularity-following-the-announcement-of-its-industrial-development-zone%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dfacebook) [![Share on LinkedIn](https://blog.rawson.co.za/hs-fs/hubfs/social-uploaded-images/Linkedin%20Icon.png?width=24&name=Linkedin%20Icon.png)](http://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.rawson.co.za%2Fsaldanha-bay-property-could-benefit-greatly-from-saldanha-bays-growing-popularity-following-the-announcement-of-its-industrial-development-zone%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dlinkedin) [![Share on Twitter](https://blog.rawson.co.za/hs-fs/hubfs/social-uploaded-images/Twitter.png?width=24&name=Twitter.png)](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?original_referer=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.rawson.co.za%2Fsaldanha-bay-property-could-benefit-greatly-from-saldanha-bays-growing-popularity-following-the-announcement-of-its-industrial-development-zone%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dtwitter&url=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.rawson.co.za%2Fsaldanha-bay-property-could-benefit-greatly-from-saldanha-bays-growing-popularity-following-the-announcement-of-its-industrial-development-zone%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dtwitter&source=tweetbutton&text=Saldanha%20Bay%20property%20could%20benefit%20greatly%20from%20Saldanha%20Bay%27s%20growing%20popularity%20following%20the%20announcement%20of%20its%20Industrial%20Development%20Zone) May 28, 2026 #### [Rates increase by 25 basis points: What May’s MPC decision means for SA property](https://blog.rawson.co.za/rates-increase-by-25-basis-points-what-mays-mpc-decision-means-for-sa-property) [![Share on Facebook](https://blog.rawson.co.za/hs-fs/hubfs/social-uploaded-images/Facebook%20Icons.png?width=24&name=Facebook%20Icons.png)](http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.rawson.co.za%2Fsaldanha-bay-property-could-benefit-greatly-from-saldanha-bays-growing-popularity-following-the-announcement-of-its-industrial-development-zone%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dfacebook) [![Share on LinkedIn](https://blog.rawson.co.za/hs-fs/hubfs/social-uploaded-images/Linkedin%20Icon.png?width=24&name=Linkedin%20Icon.png)](http://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.rawson.co.za%2Fsaldanha-bay-property-could-benefit-greatly-from-saldanha-bays-growing-popularity-following-the-announcement-of-its-industrial-development-zone%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dlinkedin) [![Share on Twitter](https://blog.rawson.co.za/hs-fs/hubfs/social-uploaded-images/Twitter.png?width=24&name=Twitter.png)](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?original_referer=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.rawson.co.za%2Fsaldanha-bay-property-could-benefit-greatly-from-saldanha-bays-growing-popularity-following-the-announcement-of-its-industrial-development-zone%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dtwitter&url=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.rawson.co.za%2Fsaldanha-bay-property-could-benefit-greatly-from-saldanha-bays-growing-popularity-following-the-announcement-of-its-industrial-development-zone%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dtwitter&source=tweetbutton&text=Saldanha%20Bay%20property%20could%20benefit%20greatly%20from%20Saldanha%20Bay%27s%20growing%20popularity%20following%20the%20announcement%20of%20its%20Industrial%20Development%20Zone) May 19, 2026 #### [Who’s fixing what?
