Cape Town’s Rental Market Is Shifting. So Are Expectations.

In a city known for its design-forward homes, world-class landscapes, and discerning residents, it’s no surprise that the rental market is evolving. High-end landlords are no longer looking for volume-focused agencies or cookie-cutter service. They're looking for alignment  --  and someone who will represent their home as if it were their own.

At Amazing Spaces, we don’t just manage rental properties. We curate them.

“We’ve built a brand, not just a service,” says Julia Finnis-Bedford, founder of Amazing Spaces. “We represent homes that deserve to be lived in beautifully  -- and by tenants who understand the privilege of occupying a truly special space.”

What Makes Amazing Spaces Different?

A Curated Portfolio

We don’t list hundreds of homes. We’re highly selective, representing only long-term rental properties from R20,000/month and up. Why? Because premium homes require a different level of care, from presentation to tenant-vetting to ongoing management.

“Every home we list is chosen for its quality, design integrity, and lifestyle alignment. If it doesn’t resonate, we step aside,” says Julia.

Tenant Vetting That Goes Deeper

We believe that who lives in your home matters. That’s why every applicant is thoroughly vetted; with credit checks, references, and affordability assessments. We’re not trying to fill properties fast, we’re committed to finding the right fit.

Presentation That Protects Value

From professional photography to custom-crafted listings, your home is treated like a high-end campaign from the start. Because presentation shapes perception, and perception shapes price. No blurry images. No recycled copy. Just thoughtful, visually strong storytelling.

Management That’s Both Hands-On and High-Touch

With our Managed Rental service (15% + VAT), we handle everything:

  • Tenant sourcing
  • Lease admin
  • Communication
  • Rent collection via PayProp
  • Maintenance coordination
  • Monthly statements and reporting

Prefer a lighter touch? Our Unmanaged option (10% + VAT) gives you the same marketing muscle and tenant setup, and then hands the reins back to you, cleanly and professionally.

Built on Trust, Not Targets

Amazing Spaces isn’t just a rental agency. We’re a curatorial brand with over 25 years of experience managing high-value properties, originally for the film and fashion industries and now in Real Estate too. We know how to protect a home’s integrity, handle complexity under pressure, and navigate sensitive situations with care.

We’ve worked with relocation consultants, foreign investors, architects, designers, and long-distance landlords, all seeking something more personal, more discerning, and more aligned.

“We’re not here to be the biggest rental agency in Cape Town,” says Julia.
“We’re here to be the one landlords recommend when someone asks,
‘Who will manage my home as if it were their own?’”
