The average asking rent in Mowbray is R9 500 a month (Nov 2026), up 3.6% since November 2025. Half of the 59 live listings ask between R7 225 and R12 200; a typical 1-bed is R9 900 and a studio R11 500. That is R8 000 below the Cape Town median. Homes take about 23 days to let, and 1 in 7 has cut its asking price since listing.
Like-for-like: the line moves only when asking rents move, not when the mix of what is listed changes.
