Owners near the university campus and in Van der Hoff Park and Baillie Park add nutec rooms, steel frame flats and wendy houses to let, while landlords in Ikageng, Promosa and Mohadin build rooms for workers and families. Farms around the Mooi River and toward Ventersdorp ask for staff housing and stores, and the town's schools sometimes add prefab classrooms.
