Thanks Nicolette. To add to the affordability piece is for a person to stress test their current affordability for an additional 1.5-2.5% increase on the current interest rates. Also factoring the rates and levy increases into the housing value affordability and stress test those additional increases too, ceteris paribus. If after stress testing you find that the 1.5%-2.5%increase in rate would result in increased financial pressure, a person is to peg their affordability to the maximum installment+rates&taxes they are willing to pay and work backwards to determine the maximum amount of funding they should take out.
I appreciate you so much❤! I am going to share what my husband and I considered when buying our home on my channel too! Our people need to be informed on these things🙌🏽
Dankie danko for the info. Just a topic to consider if possible, The difference and advantages/disadvantages between choosing a fixed interest rate and flexible interest rate.
Nicolette, I pretty much watch most of your videos when a notification comes through because I think the work you do is important and I love how you are realistic with your advice. So, hopefully, no one will deem me a hater for my next comment..... I'm not a sound engineer or acoustics specialist and I do understand that you are recording from your home but if possible please look into improving the sound to make it a better listening experience.
I always love when people say: Why didn't I buy 10 years ago.....10 years from now, you will say the same thing. Buy as soon as you can afford it, even if it's just to rent out again. From the rental income a bank may take up to 70% again towards a second property ...
Hi Nicolette. Can you maybe have a topic relating to taxes (SARS) that hits the property owners who rent out their properties? I have moved to Europe a few months ago and I’m currently renting out my property in Bloemfontien near the University of Free State. I’m have been trying to communicate with SARS and I’m not getting clear answers. I’m not sure if SARS likes it that I’m moving money between two continents and “He” is not gaining anything. Now I’m wondering if I should sell my property and start investing in property in Europe. Although property in some European countries is 5-10x more expensive.
Amounts received from an immovable property situated in South Africa will be included in your South African taxable income, even though you are not a South African resident anymore unfortunately🙁. They look at the source of income for non residents.
😂😂🤦🏾♂️ you can go n sulk uzobuya ku worse. . . My biggest problem is why can't we get free decent empty land at good areas from our government coz we pay huge amount of tax 😭😭😭
Can one negotiate for a better rate. Eg 7.14% and also ask for the monthly repayment to be fixed from the onset? I would love to buy a house but I don’t like suprises. Not knowing how much you’ll be required to pay in the next 3/6 months makes me nervous
Can l ask, why a car for 1M can take 5yrs to pay but a property with same vale is 20 or 30 years. And lastly how can you pay for the property same time as a car?
a car depreciates quicker which is why its financed over a short period of time so that if you default on your loan the bank can still sell your car and get fair value for your car and a house often appreciates in value so even after the 19th year of you defaulting the bank can still sell your house and get their money back
1998 interest shot up to 25% so long its not cash positive I am not buying it. apartments its no go unless your a VIP INVESTOR or put down 60% equity to jump out on first refinance....yall be safe
only two things can happen 1. the world systems come to a stop and it spells the end 2. interest rates go down but seeing that there’s a slow collapse happening in the west, number 1 might be it, in that case probably buy that house because if the world ends who cares
Hey. I am buying a pre-owned house which I want to rent out right. The house will need some fixing here and there to accommodate the tenants; however I do not have cash for that. Apparently I can get my pension money cashed out use it for renovations, is this a good idea?
Hi Nicolette, Firstly loving the content, very informative. Big Fan. i know that am off-topic here, what's your take on business accounts. Most importantly for upcoming small business. Eg selling clothes or providing small services, i have noticed there are these zero business accounts, offered by various financial institutes. Your input will be highly appreciated

Most NB thing, buy within your means as over the space of twenty years rates will go up and down.
I have a good credit score thanks to your videos. Now looking to learn more about property.

Thank you Nicolette, these videos are educational
Whenever you say "non of my videos constitute as financial advice" we just know that you'll drop some wisdom
Thank you so much. Your content is always so relevant.

There are a many reduced properties lately since the rate increased which is increasing the seller's market so buyers can qualify for bonds

Good advice: same mortgage rules as Australia
Loving the fit ke sana!!! 🥰
I didn’t know personal finance required a lot of EQ and IQ. Without a balance, one will just fumble everything. 😅
It is so beautiful, how I have learned that I will ask for a lower interest rate for the property I want. ❤❤ #saved4thefuture
Buy what you can afford. This is so important.
Good outfit there Nicolete 🔥🔥♥.
Thank you
What does the interest rate relief mean from the banks?
Is this applicable to renting as well?

What is the difference between Flips and government housing allowance? Who qualifies? Can I qualify for both? I’m still under 25
Thanks for the info
I am watching you with 100rand in my bank account 🤔🤔 I’m actually not lying
only two things can happen
1. the world systems come to a stop and it spells the end
2. interest rates go down
but seeing that there’s a slow collapse happening in the west, number 1 might be it, in that case probably buy that house because if the world ends who cares
Did I just hear that you can negotiate your interest rate when purchasing, or is it the selling price only that can be negotiated?
