The average asking rent in Boston is R7 250 a month (Nov 2026), up 13.0% since November 2025. Half of the 39 live listings ask between R6 325 and R9 225; a typical 1-bed is R8 000 and a 2-bed R10 600. That is R3 750 below the Bellville median. Homes take about 7 days to let, and 1 in 10 has cut its asking price since listing, against 1 in 5 across Bellville.
Like-for-like: the line moves only when asking rents move, not when the mix of what is listed changes.
