Seventeen Years. One Vision. Limitless Possibilities.

Category News

Seventeen years ago, Eris embarked on a journey to challenge the status quo in real estate. What began as a vision has become a legacy, defined by client trust, purposeful partnerships, and a commitment to innovation.
Today, we’re more than a property company. We are collaborators and market-shapers, evolving to meet the needs of a continent and expanding beyond it.
From Johannesburg to Ghana, and into new global frontiers, Eris is laying the groundwork for a new chapter. According to our CEO Barend de Loor, that chapter will be defined by a growth mindset, integrated expertise, and belief in long-term value.

“The vision we’ve adopted for Eris is simple, but powerful: to be the industry leader in real estate through the sustained pursuit of client satisfaction, the innovation of products and services, and the early adoption of technology. We strive to be the employer of choice. I believe that says it all.”

Through this lens of leadership, culture, and delivery, Eris continues breaking new ground, literally and strategically. We believe leadership isn’t just measured by what you’ve delivered, but by what you’re building next. Our blueprint signals momentum at every level:

SASAII Portfolio
In partnership with SASAII, we’re rolling out student accommodation developments that go beyond infrastructure, creating community and investor confidence.
With three new builds in Johannesburg and Bloemfontein, this portfolio is designed for the next generation of students and capital. Through Rise Student Living, we’re curating spaces that are intentional, people-first, and performance-aligned.

Barend notes the PBSA business now manages over 6,000 beds, with 3,000 under construction—clear proof that innovation, backed by delivery, drives impact.

And quietly, this also signals our strategic expansion beyond the continent. With global PBSA markets on the radar, Eris is scaling its impact—backed by capability and the right partnerships.

Bankenveld City District
Momentum is building behind Bankenveld City District—a bold, mixed-use precinct planned for Johannesburg’s northern growth corridor. This isn’t just a development—it’s a city-making strategy that fuses residential, retail, commercial, and public realms to drive density, liveability, and inclusive growth.

“Bankenveld is set to reshape the northern skyline—and redefine how precincts uplift not just property values, but people, places and local economies.” — Barend de Loor

 Poised to usher in a new era for Johannesburg’s urban identity, Bankenveld reflects smart planning, community focus, and real momentum. It’s a new chapter—and Eris is still leading the playbook.

 We’ve weathered economic cycles, competitive shifts, and regulatory change not by reacting, but by reimagining. Our leadership champions a model rooted in clarity, capital discipline, and innovation.

At Eris, innovation isn’t limited to products—it’s embedded in how we think, decide, and adapt.

Over the past decade, we’ve expanded across the continent—always leaning into local knowledge and trusted partnerships. As we look ahead, the focus is clear: deepen our presence and empower bold, purposeful leadership.

Behind every project and milestone is a team that believes in what we’re building. Our people have always been the constant—the ones who carry the vision forward and live the values that define us.

Excellence, diversity, inclusivity, integrity, and innovation are more than words—they guide how we hire, lead, and deliver. From our owner-manager model to our graduate pipeline, leadership is shared, growth encouraged, and excellence expected.
Barend affirms that it’s this values-led culture—not just systems—that powers Eris forward. When individuals are trusted and aligned, performance follows.

Our strength lies not just in what we build, but in how we manage, measure, and maximise value.  Whether shaping city districts or purpose-built accommodation, Eris’s full-spectrum capability supports a broad range of developments tailored to need and context.

We’ve completed over 125 projects in three decades—some large, some small—but each required a mindset grounded in long-term value creation. That philosophy defines who we are.”  —Barend de Loor

Seventeen years in, we’re not resting—we’re accelerating:

·       Deploying capital with agility and purpose

·       Expanding product innovation across fund, asset, and property solutions

·       Doubling down on tech and operational intelligence

·       Investing in future leadership

·       Growing talent aligned to our purpose

“Together, we have forged a powerful presence... We will continue breaking barriers and transforming our vision into reality.” —Barend de Loor
The groundwork is in place. The momentum is real. In this market, innovation is the engine—and purpose is the compass.

To Everyone Who’s Walked This Journey with Us—Thank You
To our clients and investors—thank you for your trust.
To our partners and suppliers—your excellence lifts our delivery.
To our people—past and present—thank you for your energy and belief.
This anniversary isn’t the end—it’s a launchpad.
One vision. Built by many. Bold leadership. Game-changing innovation. And a future that’s only just begun.
