    Okay, as I am typing, I haven't watched the whole thing yet....
    Would like to have a segment of " What now, that I have bought property".
    This would be for people who have already bought and never had an opportunity to come across the "dos and don'ts" like this

    This chat made me realise this whole time I saved for attorney fees and not a deposit. Also realised saving didn't increase my affordability but the opposite happened because while I was saving. The value of property went up. I actually afford places that no longer meet my preference. Feels like I should have just bought and not saved

    I now feel better about the empty space 😂, we moved into our new house in 2022, thought it would be fully furnished by now, but it's taking time.

    I wish Zama could open a consiltany of some sort to assist in contracts and NEGOTIATIONS because this thing is tricky. You can easily miss something

    How do you get two properties at the same time? What do they look into?

    • @propertywithzama
      @propertywithzama 11 месяцев назад +7

      It's the same process as buying one. You can buy as many properties as you want, simultaneously, as long as you can afford them.

    Great topic, thank you ladies... It's interesting how I was so under pressure at some point wanting to buy property but almost all the time when I do the calculations Ithe answer is I can't afford. It was heavy on me until I accepted that I'm better off paying someone else's bond (to have a roof over my head) than having to stress and be depressed inside the property I can't afford for years & years. I have so much peace now

    • @MapaloMakhu
      @MapaloMakhu  6 месяцев назад +2

      And trust me, you've made the best decision for yourself and your finances. This is better than being a prisoner of a bond

    A particular bank offered me best interest rate and also offered me a further discount on interest and cash back, the catch is I’ll have to move my main account to them. Is it possible to jump into the offer and change back to my old bank once transfers are done?

    • @MapaloMakhu
      @MapaloMakhu  11 месяцев назад +8

      Why not just stick with them as they are offering you the most value?
