The average asking rent in Salt River is R12 748 a month (Nov 2026), up 13.6% since November 2025. Half of the 22 live listings ask between R11 625 and R17 500; a typical 1-bed is R12 000 and a 2-bed R18 500. That is R4 752 below the Cape Town median. Homes take about 15 days to let, and 1 in 2 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.
