Harare-based estate agency Clark Properties is making its move into Zimbabwe's second city. The boutique firm, known for its modern marketing with hands-on service, has formally expanded into Bulawayo. It is already hitting the ground running with 12 listings and counting.
Leading the charge on the ground is Janine Cunningham, Clark Properties' new Bulawayo negotiator. She's the first face the agency has placed in the city, and Principal Registered Estate Agent Vanessa Memper Clark says the expansion has come at a pivotal time.
"Our portfolio in Bulawayo continued to grow, and we knew we needed the right person on the ground," said Vanessa. "Janine came at just the right time. Vibrant, knowledgeable and principled, Janine brings both professionalism and energy to the Clark Properties team. We are excited to have her leading the way in Bulawayo and have no doubt she is ready to take the city by storm."
Clark Properties' Bulawayo listings span a price range of $140,000 to $1.1 million. The residential side is anchored in Burnside, with three of the six house listings sitting in that suburb alone. Prices for homes run from $140,000 for a 2-bedroom in Hillside through to $675,000 for a premium 5-bedroom property, also in Burnside.
But what stands out is the commercial depth. Nearly half the portfolio is made up of industrial and commercial listings — including a fuel depot in Belmont, two warehouse properties in Donnington, and a commercial building right in the Bulawayo CBD. There's also a rare 3-acre land parcel in Matsheumhlope available at $150,000, offered across three separate title deeds. The portfolio signals that Clark Properties isn't just here for the residential market. They're planting a flag across multiple property categories in Zimbabwe's second city — and they're only getting started.
Clark Properties launched in June 2023. In the short time since, the agency has built a reputation as one of Harare's leading boutique firms. Now, with Bulawayo in its sights, Clark Properties is signaling clear ambitions for national growth.
The agency's approach sets it apart. It doesn't just rely on the old way of doing things. Clark Properties is itself progressive, using digital platforms and new marketing methods to reach buyers and renters. But it pairs that with the kind of personal, familiar service that clients in Zimbabwe have always valued. In a market where trust matters enormously, that balance is everything.
Bulawayo has quietly been drawing more attention from property investors and developers in recent years. Zimbabwe's second city has a distinct real estate character. It is generally more affordable than Harare, with a loyal and growing renter base and a steady demand for residential sales. For an agency with national growth in mind, it's a logical next step.
If you're looking to buy, sell, or rent in Bulawayo, Clark Properties is now open for business. And with Janine Cunningham leading that expansion, the city has a new name worth knowing.
