In2assets announces its 9th multiple property auction for Telkom South Africa, offering buyers and investors a rare chance to acquire well-located land and buildings nationwide.

DURBAN – In2assets, the KwaZulu-Natal-based property auction house, will conduct its ninth multiple property auction on behalf of Telkom South Africa on Tuesday, 8 December 2026 at 11h00. The auction will take place live at the Mount Edgecombe Country Club and will be livestreamed, so bidders anywhere in the country can take part.

The portfolio comprises 70 non-core properties spread across eight provinces. They include out-of-service telecommunication mast sites, former service hubs and telephone exchange buildings in rural towns, townships and the industrial nodes of South Africa's metropolitan areas.

The sale forms part of Telkom's ongoing programme to release property it no longer needs for its operations. In2assets has handled the programme's previous nine multiple property auctions since 2023.

A national portfolio

Gauteng leads the line-up with 26 properties, followed by KwaZulu-Natal with nine and Mpumalanga and North West with eight each.

Properties per Province:
Gauteng: 26
KwaZulu-Natal: 9
Mpumalanga: 8
North West: 8
Free State: 5
Limpopo: 5
Western Cape: 5
Eastern Cape: 3
 

The properties range from compact stands in established suburbs to large holdings on the edge of towns. Many are in rural areas that are seldom offered on the open market, such as farming villages in Limpopo, the KwaZulu-Natal Midlands and the Free State.

What is on offer

The portfolio falls into three broad property types:

• Telephone exchange buildings – solid, purpose-built structures, some larger than 1,000 m², suited to conversion into offices, warehousing, training centres or community facilities.
• Former service hubs – fenced sites with workshops, outbuildings and yard space, many in established industrial areas.
• Out-of-service mast sites – rural and peri-urban stands that suit smallholdings, storage, farm-support depots or further development.

Most sites are fully fenced, and many have more than one road frontage. Several offer redevelopment potentials, subject to rezoning and municipal approval.

The auction should appeal to a wide range of buyers. These include developers looking for land in growing townships, businesses wanting their own premises, farmers and agri-businesses, and investors building a property portfolio at auction prices.

Because many properties are in rural locations, every listing includes Google Maps GPS coordinates. Buyers can pinpoint each site and plan a viewing before auction day.
