We were delighted with the overwhelming response and have certainly managed to successfully highlight the many reasons why Buh-Rein Estate makes for a fantastic buy," said Riaan Roos, CEO of the MSP Group. "In addition to this we could not have hoped for a more suitable winner. This initiative most certainly has culminated into much more than a good brand campaign, we have literally changed a family's life and to us that's such a sweet reward."

Situated in the award-winning Buh-Rein Estate in the northern suburbs close to Durbanville, the apartment comes with all the necessities of modern day living from furniture and appliances to internet plus a new Hyundai i20. The estate has a multi-purpose sports field, a planned private school and crèche, a centrally placed medical facility, an on-site shopping centre and petrol station, and daily transport service to Cape Town CBD and Stellenbosch.
