Who We Are
About BetterDigs
Our Story
BetterDigs was founded with a simple belief: UCT students deserve a home that enables them to thrive — not just survive — during their university years. For over a decade, we have provided premium, fully-managed student accommodation in Rosebank, Cape Town, exclusively to UCT students.
Since 2015, every one of our properties has been 100% occupied for every academic year. That track record is not luck — it reflects the quality of our homes, the responsiveness of our team, and the community we have built among our residents.
What We Offer
We manage five beautiful properties in Rosebank — a quiet, leafy suburb 200m to 600m from the Tugwell Hall UCT shuttle stop. Each property is fully furnished, professionally cleaned twice a week, maintained by a full-time handyman, and connected to high-speed fibre internet.
We take the stress out of student living. When something breaks, we fix it — same day. When you need to reach us, we are available on WhatsApp, not hiding behind a property management portal. We are small enough to know our residents by name, and professional enough to run a best-in-class operation.
Our Values
Quality
We invest in properties that we would want to live in ourselves — maintained to a high standard, year after year.
Responsiveness
We respond to maintenance requests same-day and to enquiries within hours. Accessibility is non-negotiable.
Community
Our group application model means friends live together. Many of our residents tell us their housemates became their closest friends.
