Getting an up-to-date valuation from a variety of reputable estate agencies will ensure you are able to price your property accurately.

A low offer is better than no offer Buyers who are open and honest with their agents are more likely to find the right home - and at the price they can afford BY BONNY FOURIE bronwyn.fourie@inl.co.za Q: I am planning to sell my property. How can I get the right valuation and, therefore, the best possible price? A: The first step for anyone even vaguely considering selling a property should always be to get an up-to-date professional valuation. Better yet, get two or three of them, from a variety of reputable estate agencies. That way, you have solid confirmation that you’re in the right price ballpark and can start getting to know a few agents who might be a good fit to handle your sale. Valuations can provide very useful insight into the skills and

experience of an agent. A good valuation should include hard market data and statistics, as well as more intuitive information, based on an agent’s hands-on experience with buyers, sellers and the market in your area. Price recommendations should always be supported by a comparative market analysis showing exactly how a property compares to its competition. If an agent can’t or won’t deliver this level of detail, I would be very wary of taking the professional relationship further. – David Jacobs, Gauteng regional sales manager for the Rawson Property Group

Q: We are looking to buy a property and, while we want to be fair with any offers, we also need to ensure we do not pay more than we have to. What aspects should we be aware of that can add to or detract from a property’s value? A: Schools and universities are a big priority and buyers will pay more for such a location. Additionally, the size of the accommodation and land and style of the home play a role. It is, for example, easier to sell a three-bedroom than a twobedroom home but anything above four bedrooms will not sell for a higher value. The condition is also a factor. Buyers pay more for a wellmaintained and modern home because most do not want to have to do any work on it. Levies can also be a dealbreaker. The levies in some complexes make a home there unaffordable for buyers and sellers then have to be more accommodating with their asking prices to compensate. Neglect and poor maintenance and outdated finishes will most certainly impact the value. It will also be affected if the neighbourhood is poorly maintained or has a high crime rate. Security has become a top priority for buyers, so if you live in a neighbourhood with community safety initiatives, consider joining them because, aside from a proactive role in keeping your neighbourhood safe, it also ensures property values are not negatively affected by crime. – Gerhard van der Linde, managing director for Seeff Pretoria East Q: I am working with an agent to buy a property but she has asked for

very detailed financial information. Is this normal? A: Being 100% honest with your real estate professional means that your agent can show you homes that you should be able to afford, even if the initial asking price is beyond your budget. Estate agents usually know the sellers and can tell if they would be willing to accept a lower offer. If you’re honest with your agent, she can then recommend an amount within your budget that the seller would be willing to consider. An agent can only narrow down the search and pinpoint the perfect property based on the information that you provide. If you work with an agent you trust, and are comfortable sharing information with, the process will be far easier and quicker. When you start searching for a home, it is best to be as upfront as possible with your real estate professional. This approach will guarantee that you leave a satisfied new homeowner. – Adrian Goslett, regional director and chief executive of Re/Max of Southern Africa Q: What does it mean to “refinance my home” and how does it work? A: Refinancing means taking out a new home loan for the difference in value between your property’s original purchase price and its current estimated value. This extra money can then be withdrawn to pay off more expensive debt like credit cards or personal loans or be kept as equity in the bond. One of the main benefits of refinancing is the opportunity to secure a better interest rate than on your original bond. This can effectively reduce monthly

repayments (assuming the equity is not withdrawn), making it a valuable tool for homeowners struggling with cash flow. However, it’s important to note homeowners will have to cover the refinancing costs, including bond registration fees, legal costs, VAT and deeds office levies. Your bond originator can help you assess whether the short-term costs are worth the potential benefits of refinancing. It’s not a one-size-fits-all solution, so it’s important to discuss the options as they relate to your specific circumstances. – Leonard Kondowe, national admin hub manager for Rawson Finance Q: With interest rates at their lowest levels in decades, and a huge choice of inventory at the moment, quite a number of home buyers and investors are making really low offers to purchase in the hope of picking up property bargains. How should I, as a seller, deal with low offers? A: Rather than taking offence and immediately rejecting these offers, sellers need to take a deep breath, recognise that they are (in most cases) only intended as opening bids in a negotiation, and get ready to make counter-offers as that negotiation proceeds. Sellers should take the view that even a low offer is better than a total lack of interest because it has a potential to lead to a satisfactory outcome – if handled correctly by a qualified agent with excellent negotiating skills. And, of course, they always retain the right to accept or reject any offer at any stage before the sale agreement is signed. – Berry Everitt, chief executive of the Chas Everitt International Property Group

Letter from the editor CLOSE friends spent a lot of time arguing with the municipality over the municipal valuation of their home. It was way over what it should be, they argued – and lost – with the consequence they were forced to pay higher municipal rates than they regarded as necessary. And the home is now on the market for at least 35% less than the municipal valuation because, as we all know, real value is based on what a buyer is willing and able to pay. Estate agents with a keen eye and who know the areas in which they work, are easily able to tell a seller what they can expect in the market. In some cases I’ve known some sellers to stick to their guns, and refuse to lower the asking price to what the agent says their property is worth. For sellers the issue is critical. They may need a certain amount of money to buy something else, or they may truly believe their home is worth more than the agent’s assessment because of all they have put into it. Some may have overcapitalised on renovations and others may find it hard to part with a beloved property. Hard-headed sellers can be the bane of estate agents’ lives, with properties languishing on the market until the seller lowers the price. Sadly, in today’s economy many sellers need to make a quick sale, and buyers may be surprised that their cheeky offers are accepted. And then there is also the subjective valuation that happens when a prospective buyer walks into a place and falls in love, willing to sign on the dotted line even if they have to pay a whopping price. It takes all types to buy a home, and while valuations are vital, sometimes no matter what you think something is worth, the heart wants what the heart wants – and it’s not always a bad thing as property has often been shown to be one of the best investments you can make. Warm regards

Assessing what a home is worth can be complicated There is often a yawning gap between the market and municipal values of the same property. Experts explain why BY BONNY FOURIE bronwyn.fourie@inl.co.za

P

ROPERTY values are often a contentious issue, not only insofar as how rates are calculated but also the price a home sells for and what a buyer might be prepared to pay for it. There can also be differences in the value assigned to a property by the local municipality and the value given by an estate agent. Erwin Rode, managing director Rode & Associates, says in terms of the Municipal Property Rates Act, the municipal value of a property must reflect the market value. However, as these are mass valuations, one would “not expect an accurate estimate at all times”. Residential estate agents arrive at their valuations by gut feel which, he says, could result in fairly accurate value estimates if they have been specialising in a particular area or they use comparable sales as a guide. “Often, they use a combination of the two.” How closely aligned the market and municipal valuations are depends on a few factors, Rode says, one of which is the quality of municipal valuations. “These are often far below market value because the valuer wants to avoid appeals against the valuations. An important metro in the north of South Africa was a case in point until its latest general valuation, when this discrepancy was set right. “Also, where a valuation is done by an outside firm, the municipality’s supply chain committee normally has no experience in valuations and tends to award the tender to the cheapest bid.” The quality of the estate agent’s valuation is also a factor to consider. “Valuation is not an exact science and even where both the municipality – or its outsourced service provider – and the estate agent are competent, differences

The neighbourhood in which a property is situated has a significant impact on its value.

in opinion are inevitable.” David Jacobs, Gauteng regional sales manager for the Rawson Property Group, says agents arrive at their valuations via various means, the most important of which are: • Size of the property. • The property’s fixtures and finishes. • The property’s location – proximity to schools, public transport routes, hospitals, police stations and other amenities. • Comparative market analysis. “Estate agents’ values are determined by a physical viewing of the property, and the understanding of the property’s offering, combined with a comparative market analysis,

whereas a municipal valuation is not based on a viewing but on a standard number of square meterage and does not include the quality of furnishing and fittings.” Jacobs says that, more often than not, the real estate valuation is “slightly higher”, as it takes into account more of the property’s characteristics than does the municipal valuation. Echoing this, Kgomotso Sebakwane, head of analytics and valuations at FNB private bank lending, says municipalities do not have the luxury of visiting homes individually to measure the size or number of bedrooms or judge the quality of the finishes inside them. “Municipalities use the data

sources of sales available to them and apply an average property rate to each property within a suburb. And so the average homeowner will find that their property’s market value can be very different from the municipality’s.” An estate agent, on the other hand, has access to the property data in the suburbs that they operate in and, as part of their work, they intimately understand the characteristics of a home, whether it’s the size of the kitchen, the number of rooms or the quality of the finishes. “Given that they observe what people are willing to pay, they have the ability to gauge the value at which a property will sell,” Sebakwane says.

What factors determine value? FOR RESIDENTIAL property, the most important drivers of value are location; floor area; quality or age of the building and finishes and the condition of the building, says Rode & Associate’s Erwin Rode. Negative factors include noise, for example if the property is near a busy road or under the flight path of an airport. “Location would include the local crime situation and proximity to work opportunities. In low-cost areas, one presumes proximity to reliable public transport is also a factor. “When using the comparablesales method it is, of course, crucial to use sales that are truly

comparable.” The neighbourhood makes a “huge difference” to the value and growth prospects of a property investment, Rawson’s David Jacobs says, adding that proximity to schools, public transport routes, hospitals, police stations and other amenities is also considered. “This is usually incorporated when an agent does a comparative market analysis” Factors that can drive down a property’s value include the quality of the property’s infrastructure – such as if it is old and unmaintained and needs a lot of work, or situated in a notorious neighbourhood, an inconvenient

location, a remote or crime-filled area or even on a busy road with constant traffic noise. “One thing modern buyers are unwilling to compromise on is security. If there is no basic security, or the security system is not up to date, that can also contribute to lessening the property value,” Jacobs says. The factors that contribute the most to a property’s value, though, says Kgomotso Sebakwane of FNB, is the amount of living space available. “Different people value different things, but having the option of an extra bedroom will always add value.

“Beyond just the pure functional aspect of a home, the quality of finishes adds extra appeal to a property.” Any major structural or cosmetic defects, however, detract from the property’s value. “Whether it’s a crack in the wall, rising damp or peeling paint, the potential home buyer lands up staring at a potential problem that they will need to fix. “Whatever the quoted cost of repair, the potential home buyer will always subtract more from the value of a property based on the uncertainty of even more repairs. People tend to double discount when they see anything wrong.”

Municipal property valuations are undertaken by professional valuers.

How municipalities arrive at values for properties Officials from Cape Town and Joburg explain the process BY BONNY FOURIE bronwyn.fourie@inl.co.za PROPERTY owners often have concerns about the municipal values placed on their investments and this is never more evident than when the General Valuation Rolls (GVR) are published. Homeowners often appeal against the new values – on which their monthly rates bill will be based – some with justification and others without. This is often a result of not understanding how the value was arrived at. Officials from the cities of Cape Town and Joburg share how their valuation processes work: City of Cape Town’s Louise Muller, director valuations Q: How does your municipality work out a property’s value? How are these values calculated? A: The valuation is determined on the market value at a particular date in the valuation cycle. Thus, for the 2018 GVR, the valuation date was July 2, 2018. The valuation of residential properties on the GVR 2018 was mainly derived from comparable sales data of an area. Valuations are done by professional valuers and the city’s valuation roll is audited by an independent body. The city understands property values are not static and therefore ensures that independent property valuations are carried out regularly to ensure the rates charged reflect the most current market values. This ensures all residents, regardless of when they purchased their properties, are paying rates reflective of the most recent valuation and all valuations are reflective of the market conditions at one particular date.

Q: How do estate agents arrive at their property valuations? Opinions of estate agents are generally not viewed as market evidence of the property valuation as these are indications of what potentially could be achieved but is not a final sale value. It may give a property owner an indication of the valuation of the property but it must be noted estate agents work on a daily basis, while all city valuations are representative of market conditions on a specific date and are based on specific comparable sales. Q: How closely aligned are estate agencies’ values and the municipality’s? A: Municipal valuations are based on the analysis of current market trends and the attributes/features of the properties being valued, as well as comparable sales of properties. Estate agents’ values indicate an estimated value that a property may achieve in an open market, where there is a willing buyer and a willing seller, as at the current conditions when the valuation is requested. Q: What factors are taken into consideration when valuing a property? A: Valuation is a highly technical process. The methodology depends on which type of property is being valued. But, in this case, it is assumed the emphasis is on residential properties. The most acceptable method of valuing residential properties is by direct comparable sales method analysis. This will entail

comparing the subject property with prices of recent sales of similar properties in a particular area. Attributes such as sizes of erf, improvements, condition, quality, accommodation, location, finishes, accessibility, view and security etc, are all taken into account and analysed. Property valuation principles are internationally recognised. It is also important to note that there are different methods of property valuation, depending on the type of property that is being valued. Q: What factors add to a property’s value? A: Factors that determine the value of a property are both external and internal. External means economic factors and market conditions at the time of valuation and internal includes features and attributes of the property itself, such as location, size of erf, improvements, condition, quality, finishes, accommodation, security, view, accessibility and proximity to amenities. Q: What factors detract from a property’s value? A: These will be the same as mentioned above but will be inferior to average standard in a particular area. Specific area attributes, such as high crime or close to amenities, will also impact on value. City of Joburg’s Nthatisi Modingoane, deputy director of communications Q: How does your municipality work

out a property’s value? How are these values calculated? A: The value of a property is determined in terms of section 46 of the Municipal Property Rates Act 6 of 2004 as amended.“Subject to any other applicable provisions of this act, the market value of a property is the amount the property would have realised if sold on the date of valuation in the open market by a willing seller to a willing buyer.” There are several types of properties in the municipality – residential, sectional title, nonresidential and agricultural. Each type is valued on a different basis, although they all relate to market value: • Residential property and sectional titles – the comparable sales method. • Commercial property – income basis. • Institutional properties – cost basis. It should be noted when a property is valued it should relate to a valuation date: The date of valuation refers to the date at which property values are determined and fixed for the purpose of the GVR. For the GVR 2018 the date of July 1, 2017 was set as the valuation date. Q: How do estate agents arrive at their property valuations? A: The estate agent also uses the comparable sales method of valuation. However, the difference will be in the date of valuation. For example, if the agent values the property today, he will use sales that have recently happened. The same property valued for

the GVR 2018 would have been valued using sales around July 2017. Therefore, the difference in value will relate to the different markets. Q: How closely aligned are estate agencies’ values and the municipality’s? A: The municipal valuation will stand for the period of validity of the valuation roll, which is four years, whereas the agent value is as at today. Therefore, at the end of a valuation roll period, the difference in time can be four years. Q: What factors are taken into consideration when valuing a property? A: For residential properties this would include the size of the dwelling; outbuildings and other improvements; condition of improvements; quality of improvements; view; security; location of the property relating to schools and shops etc. On business properties this includes potential rental income, expenses, condition of building, location and quality of finishes. Q: What factors add to a property’s value? A: All attributes as above where it is positive, such as good finishes, good location (close to all amenities). Q: What factors detract from a property’s value? Q: All attributes as above where it is negative such as dilapidated finishes, bad location.

SA MIXED-USE BUILDINGS SET TO BE RADICALLY REDEFINED

/

First of its kind development launches on the Atlantic Seaboard A totally unique, luxury mixed-used development has launched on Cape Town’s Atlantic Seaboard that is unlike anything else yet seen in South Africa. This exciting, future icon development, called Station House, is set to redefine what people look for in mixed-use buildings, as well as the future of inner-city living. Located at 19 Kloof Road in the heart of Sea Point, one of the most desirable and growing areas of Cape Town, Station House is a 12-storey architectural masterpiece, that when completed, will feature 230 meticulously appointed luxury apartments, ranging from studios to one-beds, twobeds and micro units - with prices starting at only R1.595m VAT inclusive.

“Give me a reason to leave the building.” The development will also feature 15 facilities within one address. A boutique hotel - providing investors an alternative property asset option within the Atlantic Seaboard - a signature Pick n Pay supermarket, a street-front deli bar and restaurant, a private-residents lounge with braai areas, private rooftop residents pool, a dedicated pet park, an outdoor kinetic gym, yoga studio, a business centre with meeting pods, as well as an open-to-the-public sky bar, swimming pool and restaurant - all of which will enjoy incredible views of the ocean, Lions Head and the city scene.

The depictions herein are for illustrative purposes only and are subject to change without notice.

Paul Berman, CEO of Berman Bros Group explains that he and his brother grew up in the exact spot where Station House is being developed and have a very personal history with both the site and the area. “We are extremely excited about this project. We had plans and hopes for the site for many years, but it took years to acquire all the surrounding properties and consolidate them to make up the now considerable 3000 square metre parcel of land on which the Station House development will stand.” Saul Berman, Director of Berman Bros Group, said that “Station House will change the way people think about life, work, and play. We have partnered with the best minds in the SA property industry, and innovation will take us - and Station House residents - to the next level.” “The design of Station House is absolutely world-class and cutting edge - it is a piece of architectural art in a very pivotal and strategic position as you enter Sea Point. We worked with architectural firms Vivid Architects as well as Inhouse Architects and we believe that Station House will elevate the entire Sea Point area - as a rising tide lifts all boats,” says Berman.

“Sleep small, live large.”

The depictions herein are for illustrative purposes only and are subject to change without notice.

Marketed by Dogon Group Properties and developed by Berman Brothers in partnership with D2E Properties, Station House gives residents everything they need within their own space. As a lock-up-and-go lifestyle solution, Station House is a home, a workplace, a retail space and an entertainment venue, all in one.

The Berman Brothers and Robin Magid, Director of D2E Properties, explain that they set out with the goal of making the apartments at Station House as affordable as possible, to try and assist people in the rental market to convert their rental obligations to similarly priced bond installments, and get onto the property ladder.

“Station House offers great investment opportunities for keen purchasers. There is no development of this quality on the Atlantic Seaboard and with demand for well-priced property continues to escalate, coupled with the low interest rate environment, we have curated a development that speaks to a new market,” says Magid. “Our ‘sleep small, live large’ concept will be fully embraced by the future residents of Station House. The building will capture the strong sense of community that Capetonians enjoy, while offering the majestic views and sites that contribute to the city’s global appeal.” “This beautiful and modern Station House development has a distinctly international feel that is in tune with global trends and influences and brings a new lifestyle concept to Sea Point,” says Alexa Horne, MD of Dogon Group Properties. “This exciting building will stand as a design icon on Cape Town’s Atlantic Seaboard, allowing buyers to invest and live in a distinctive space within the bustling hub of one of the world’s most beautiful cities. Station House is close to the vibrant and cosmopolitan high street of Sea Point, known for its eateries and shopping experiences. The popular Promenade with its outdoor gym, small beaches and the Sea Point pools is within walking distance.” “Dogon Group and Berman Brothers’ ongoing commitment to bringing cutting edge projects to market is showcased in Station House. This luxury mixed-use building will set a benchmark and redefine the design of mixeduse developments in South Africa. It offers a wonderful opportunity for those who wish to buy-to-live or those looking for a premier investment opportunity in the most desirable location,” concludes Horne.

EvERytHinG yOu nEEd tO knOW abOut OccuPatiOnal REnt Never heard of Occupational Rent, or unsure of its purpose in your property sales contract? You’re not alone! According to David Jacobs, Gauteng Regional Sales Manager for the Rawson Property Group, the Occupational Rent clause is one of the most frequently misunderstood parts of property sales agreements. “Occupational rent is actually a very important part of a property sales contract, offering protection to both the buyer and seller in case of unexpected changes to the transfer timeline,” he says. Here is everything you need to know. Ownership vs Occupation Ownership and occupation of a property are not the same thing. Occupation takes place on a specific date agreed on by the buyer and the seller. Transfer of ownership, on the other hand, can be affected by conveyancing challenges or delays at the Deeds Office and can be difficult to pin down to a reliable date in advance. As a result, Jacobs says it’s not uncommon for buyers to move into a property before the transfer is complete, or for sellers to remain resident for a while after ownership has been transferred. This is when occupational rent comes into play. What is Occupational Rent? “Occupational rent is a rental amount agreed on by both the buyer and seller,” says Jacobs. “It is paid by the buyer if they move in before the transfer is complete, or paid by the seller if the seller remains in the home once the transfer has taken place.” How is occupational rent calculated? According to Jacobs, occupational rent should ideally equal the amount the property could be leased for under normal circumstances – typically between 0.55% and 0.7% of the purchase price per month. However, this is not a hard and fast rule, and the figure can be negotiated as part of the sales agreement. “Ultimately, it is the seller’s decision,” he says, “but it’s in their best interests to keep their expectations fair and reasonable. If transfer takes place earlier than expected, or occupation is pushed back for any reason, they may be the ones footing the bill, after all.” Who collects occupational rent? Unlike an ordinary rental, occupational rent is neither paid directly to the property owner or to a rental agent. Instead, it is paid to the conveyancing attorney handling

the property sale. “The conveyancer will receive the rent into their trust account and then distribute it as necessary,” says Jacobs. “Normally, that means paying it on to the owner, but they may also pay the rental directly to the owner’s bank if the owner is in arrears on their bond, for example.” What happens if occupational rent is not paid as agreed? “Occupational rent is essentially an implied lease,” says Jacob, “which becomes a separate agreement to the sale as soon as occupation takes place. Any disputes around payment would fall under the Rental Tribunal’s authority. If they cannot be resolved amicably, normal eviction processes would apply.” As a result, Jacobs urges owners to ensure payment of occupational rent takes place upfront, and before occupation whenever possible. Other important considerations Jacobs urges buyers to think very carefully about their desired occupation date based on the occupational rent amount. “It might be tempting to opt for early occupation, but this can become very costly if the occupational rent is high, or transfer is delayed and you’re stuck paying rent for longer than expected,” he says. It’s also vital that both parties are aware of their responsibilities regarding the care and upkeep of the property during early or late occupation. “Just like an ordinary rental, the property’s occupants are responsible for the dayto-day care and basic upkeep, but the owner is ultimately responsible for any major issues with the property,” says Jacobs. “That makes it absolutely essential for sellers to maintain insurance until the moment ownership passes to the buyer, and for buyers to take out insurance starting the moment the property is transferred into their name, even if they have not yet taken occupation.”
