About City Accommodations
A property management company in Bedfordview, Johannesburg, acting as managing agents for sectional title schemes, homeowners associations, landlords and investors across Gauteng, KwaZulu-Natal and the Western Cape.
Who we are
City Accommodations is a property management company serving residential communities, bodies corporate, homeowners associations, landlords and property investors across Gauteng, KwaZulu-Natal and the Western Cape. We work as managing agents: the people who run the administration, the money and the compliance on behalf of the trustees, boards and owners who carry the legal responsibility.
Our conviction is a simple one. Every property deserves the same professional care, whether it is a single rental unit or a four-hundred-erf estate. What changes with size is the volume of work, not the standard applied to it.
What sets the work apart is transparency. Every owner and trustee is entitled to clear, accurate and timely financial information, and our systems are built to produce exactly that: monthly reporting, detailed budgets and financial statements that a non-accountant can follow. Scheme and client funds are held in a dedicated trust account, separate from our own, and our administration is aligned to the requirements of the CSOS Act and the Sectional Titles Schemes Management Act.
We are based in Bedfordview and manage schemes and portfolios across Gauteng, with clients in KwaZulu-Natal and the Western Cape.

Our mission and vision
Mission
To protect and enhance the value of every property we manage through transparent, compliant and accountable administration — and to make ownership and governance genuinely easier for the people we serve. We measure ourselves by the health of the schemes behind the portfolio: finances that are sound, estates that hold their value, and owners who can step back knowing the work is being done.
Vision
To be the managing agent that trustees, owners and investors recommend because we consistently do what we said we would. Reliability rather than promises: collections pursued, finances kept clear, compliance handled properly, maintenance completed. As we grow from our Gauteng base, that is the reputation we intend to carry.
The principles that guide us
Integrity
We operate to the ethical standards the role demands, and we would rather deliver an uncomfortable number on time than a comfortable one late.
Client-centricity
Trustees and owners are not all the same. We listen first, then adapt the management plan to how your scheme actually runs.
Excellence
From the monthly financial pack to a contractor quote, the work goes out checked. Detail is the whole job in this industry.
Accountability
We take ownership of what we are responsible for, including when something has gone wrong, and we tell you before you have to ask.
How we approach management
Our approach rests on four things: proactive management, transparent communication, sound financial planning and responsive service. Good property management is not reactive. Problems are cheaper to solve before they become failures, and a scheme that plans its maintenance does not fund it through a special levy.
We inspect regularly, maintain preventative schedules, and work with vetted contractors. We use property management systems to keep operations consistent, produce real-time financial insight and keep communication clear between trustees, owners and residents.
Whether you are a trustee running a body corporate, a board member in an HOA estate or an investor with a rental portfolio, the method is the same: understand the specific needs, build a management plan around them, and deliver results you can measure.
