Properties for sale

Zimbabwe's property market is awash with homes for sale as owners flee the country, the independent 'Financial Gazette' reported on Thursday.

"We are now getting up to 10 properties brought up for sale every day instead of the usual maximum of only two. The reason is mainly that the owners are getting very nervous about what is happening in the country and are leaving," the spokesman for a leading real estate firm was quoted as saying. Most of the property on the market is in the affluent suburbs.
