Founded in 1997 and headed by CEO Mark Taylor, the eLan Property Group has become a leader in real estate marketing and sales, sales of hospitality investment projects and more recently diversified into other investment opportunities.

The eLan Property Group has also developed a unique model in its hospitality division; allowing existing hotels to convert their property into sectional title hotels. In doing so, they offer individual investors a return and existing hotel owners an immediate payback on their capital. This was the model used with the iconic Riverside Hotel in Durban; southern Africa's most profitable sectional title hotel (in terms of ROI) and a true eLan success story.

South African property developments are currently in great demand with both local and international investors and home buyers.

The eLan Property Group has facilitated developments in excess of R2 billion, including the fastest selling residential estate in the country, Simbithi Eco Estate in Ballito.

The eLan Property Group focus now shifts to developing the Blythedale Coastal Resort to its maximum capacity. Having partnered with the Dube Community in this venture, the Group is proud to call itself the Development Company of Blythedale.

The approach is one of strategic planning and building relationships with like-minded individuals and organisations. The eLan Property Group wishes to partner with those who share a passion for investing in the vast hospitality and real estate opportunities that the African continent has to offer. We are very excited to announce a massive surge of interest where record sales where experienced in Blythedale Coastal Resort exceeding expectation. 

eLan Foundation

Operating in the private sector, the eLan Property Group will encourage cooperation and private public partnerships, using the eLan Foundation as a vehicle to kick-start such initiatives. As more companies are looking to the triple bottom line (profit, environmental responsibility and social awareness), business is now operating with a conscience.  With companies coordinating their social efforts, together we can achieve more. With a larger footprint, outside of each development itself, the eLan Foundation aims to boost the multiplier effect, minimising leakages and improve linkages for an area.

With its extensive and experienced team of professionals in the hospitality, marketing and property development sectors, eLan Property Group looks to the future with keen anticipation.
