The average asking rent across Wellington's 10 suburbs is R18 000 a month (Nov 2026), up 2.3% since March 2026. Half of the 41 live listings ask between R13 000 and R20 000; a typical 1-bed is R8 800 and a 3-bed R20 000. That is R2 000 above the Western Cape median. Homes take about 20 days to let, and 1 in 8 has cut its asking price since listing, against 1 in 5 province-wide.
Like-for-like: the line moves only when asking rents move, not when the mix of what is listed changes.
