Port View
Port View is a 142 unit inner city development situated on the corner of St George's Street and Diakonia Avenue that has resulted from the conversion of four buildings to affordable rental residential units and ground floor commercial units.
Port View is located in the inner city area, within walking distance of work, recreational, health, shopping and some educational opportunities. Social amenities and an inner city park form part of the neighbourhood.
You will live close to major transport facilities and enjoy panoramic views of the Bay, Port and the Indian Ocean. Right next door is a Conference Centre and NGO hub and across the road you will find the Durban Music School and Old House Museum. Port View offers a range of accommodation in bachelor, one or two bedroom units.
We offer the above accommodation subject to certain criteria, such as subsidy qualification, credit worthiness, willingness to sign and abide by the lease and house rules and compatibility with the community.
Should you wish to make an application for accommodation at Port View, you will need to phone the office for an initial screening to obtain an application form. Documents required to be submitted with the application form are:
 
Certified copy of your ID
Certified copy of marriage certificate if married, divorce certificate or death certificate, if applicable
Certified copy of birth certificate or identity document of dependants
Proof of previous residence
Proof of permanent residence if you are not a South African citizen
Original current payslip and a certified copy
Original current three month bank statement.

Your application will considered by the Provincial Housing Board after submission by SOHCO. Once approved you will be required to pay an initial deposit equal to two months of your rental and your first month's rent prior to occupation.
You will also be required to pay administration fees.
Your application will be subject to a credit check and affordability assessment.
