The average asking rent in Athlone is R14 900 a month (Nov 2026), up 24.0% since January 2026. Half of the 11 live listings ask between R10 950 and R15 500; a typical 2-bed is R11 250 and a 3-bed R16 000. That is R2 600 below the Cape Town median. Homes take about 13 days to let, and 1 in 3 has cut its asking price since listing, against 1 in 5 across Cape Town.
Like-for-like: the line moves only when asking rents move, not when the mix of what is listed changes.
