My office (a financial service) will be in Crown Road, Fordsburg, Johannesburg.Can you please suggest an area where I can live? how much will be the rent? and what will be the living cost for me, my wife and my newborn boy? I will receive R 12000/ month as foreign allowance and my salary (approx. ZAR 30000/month) will be received in my home country. I don't wanna bring any money from my salary back home, rather want to use the foreign allowance to live in JHB so that I can amass a good amount from my salary which I will receive in my country. Please help.
