ALBA Lynnwood

The Big Idea
- Renting is broken: Most renters have no stability, no control, and no community.
- Branding and tech can make renting aspirational — turning tenants into long-term customers who feel a sense of belonging.
At ALBA, we’re leading a new era of living—premium, design-led and branded apartments created exclusively for renters in South Africa’s most desirable suburbs. Inspired by the global build-to-rent movement, we champion residents, not landlords.
Our oversized, pet-friendly apartments are fully serviced and thoughtfully designed by top South African architects. Residents call the shots—with on-demand services like laundry, cleaning, childcare, and even dog walking.
Rent includes bundled water, electricity, high-speed WiFi, smart home technology, and backup water and energy systems—paired with flexible lease options, premium finishes, and exclusive membership discounts.

Our model delivers long-term rental stability, premium yields, and reduced vacancy risk through an unmatched resident experience and prime locations.
Our first two projects—ALBA Lynnwood and ALBA Menlo — launch in Pretoria, with national expansion to Stellenbosch, Cape Town, and George planned over the next 24 months.
ALBA is perfectly positioned to meet South Africa’s growing demand for flexible, high-quality, community-driven rental living.
We’re not just building apartments. We’re building a movement.
Invest in the future of renting. Invest in ALBA.
