Message from the MD - Nov 2017
Category Newsletter: Message from MD
Dear Friends, Property Investors and Enthusiasts,
It is hard to believe that this is my penultimate newsletter for 2017! While the year is quickly winding down our construction teams are still hard at work on our 8 residential sites spread across Gauteng.This year the annual builders’ holiday will commence on the 16th of December and we will reopen on the 8th of January 2018 after a well-deserved break.
I recently attended the TPN Housing Market Forecast and Rent Report where John Loos, property economist at First National Bank was the keynote speaker. No one can deny that the economy is currently under strain but there are a number of positive factors that have come to the fore. During tough economic times clients are not only less likely to make any impulsive purchases, but they also tend to save more. We have also found that clients do a lot more research before they finally commit by signing on the dotted line. With the vast amount of information available on the internet clients can determine where they will get the best value for money when purchasing a property and they may even check if they will qualify for property finance online.
