HOLIDAYS, TRAVEL/PROPERTIES – ACCOMMODATION OFFERED, WANTED, COTTAGE TO LET, HOUSE TO LET, ESTATE AGENTS

We are constantly receiving requests from evicted farmers to search for suitable, reasonably priced, accommodation in the main centres, mainly Harare.  Often the farmers have been forced off their farms and out of their homes at very short notice and become refugees with nowhere to go.

We also have a number of farmers who have moved to town who can no longer afford the high rentals being asked, which are often being increased to prices far beyond their means.

Should you know of any suitable accommodation available, please let us know so we can keep a record to assist affected farmers.
