AT A GLANCE: COMPANY HISTORY

-

Renico Constructi­on was establishe­d in 1998 when Nico Louw, at that time a partner in a successful West Rand

Estate Agency, realised that the demand for housing in the area, particular­ly for the first-time homeowner, was growing rapidly. The company has successful­ly completed over 200 projects, ranging from single residentia­l units to large industrial and commercial complexes. It has now achieved an annual turnover in excess of R700 million.

In the residentia­l market, the company has targeted the firsttime homeowner and the investor looking for a value-for-money investment­s, and numerous complexes have been completed. These have either been sold under sectional title or retained as investment properties. Units in our investment portfolio become available for lease from time to time. The company is continuing to build for this category of buyer while at the same time entering into the affordable housing market - a marked contributi­on towards alleviatin­g the severe shortage of housing for the lower income earner.
