Johannesburg is the province's main city and the core of a metro that also includes Sandton, Randburg, Roodepoort, Midrand and Soweto. To the north lies the second city, Pretoria, which is the country's capital and the heart of the Tshwane metro, which also includes Centurion, Akasia, Mamelodi and Soshanguve.

LIFESTYLE

Have a Golden Autumn BY CAMILIA DU PLOOY

Autumn is one of the most beautiful seasons to look forward to with its golden, brown and red blanket of dried leaves falling from trees.

utumn is one of the most beautiful seasons to look forward to with its golden, brown and red blanket of dried leaves falling from trees. Crisp mornings enjoying a cup of coffee while taking in the scent of fresh air when strolling through your garden and noticing that the colour green is slowly turning into the colour of hibernation. “It is important to keep in mind that your gardening should not stop over the autumn and winter months, in fact autumn is the time to prepare the garden for winter, as well as getting it ready for the following spring” says Craig Hutchison, CEO of Engel & Völkers Southern Africa. “A garden, being a relatively inexpensive item to 'fix', does make a big difference when putting your property on the market as first impressions always lasts, and a beautiful garden immediately makes new homeowners feel like they can live here” Craig added. Your beautiful garden plants will most probably get destroyed by the frost in winter (depending on your location) if precautions aren't taken to protect them. The only way to prevent this from happening is by going out to the nearest nursery and purchasing some hessian and some stakes. By wrapping your tender trees stems you can protect them as this serves to act like a scarf protecting your throat from catching a cold. Cover all the tropical plants, especially large leaf plants such as the giant strelitsia and the tree fern for example. This, together with some mulch around the roots, will keep these precious plants nice and snug through all the frosty autumn and winter nights. Mulch is the shredding of leaves, sticks, grass and bark, any material placed over soil in the garden to help retain moisture and stop soil from eroding. Mulch also enriches the existing soil and should be layered 5cm to 10cm thick. There's no need to have to prepare your eyes for a sore sight over these colder months, as you can still enjoy a colourful pallet. One should plant your winter seedlings already in the autumn for example: snap dragons, pansies, violas,

alyssum, primulas, delphiniums, dianthus, foxgloves and petunias. If you have a vegetable garden, autumn is the time to plant winter vegetables such as onions, cabbage, broccoli, peas and broadbeans for those homemade soups. March is a good month to plant woody and twiggy plants like hardy trees, shrubs and roses, as there is still enough warm days ahead for them to settle before the cold sets in. Remember to water in the mornings to allow more time for water to filter through to the roots and get nice and warm with the day sunlight. This is also a good time to start moving some of the shrubs and trees that need a new location. While working on your winter garden don't forget to think about spring. Many plants can already be planted in the autumn and winter months to sprout when spring arrives. Some bulbs can go into the ground by March, though many will need to wait until the end of autumn. Plant your spring flowering bulbs at the end of April, and since tulips may want to show face quicker, wait until May to plant them. A very important note to insure the well-being of your precious garden is to do all pruning in the beginning of autumn and if any of these plants or trees are diseased in any way, cut the diseased sections off and dump or burn these cuttings, as they can cause problems and possibly infect the rest of your garden. Autumn is also a very good time to start a compost pile or to add to the existing one. There will be more than enough dead leaves, flowers, plants, grass cuttings and kitchen waste to use. This will help your garden significantly next season. Remember not to throw weeds or diseased plants into the compost bin. “If your garden is well taken care of during autumn, it will look lovely during winter and most definitely be a low maintenance garden to enjoy in spring. Precaution is so much better than cure” Craig concluded.

CORPORATE NEWS

Engel & Völkers set to dominate Pretoria New East

ngel & Völkers Southern Africa has kicked their year off on a very positive note with the signing of their first licence for 2016. Covering the 3 main areas known as Pretoria New East, you will soon see the EV brand dominating this territory. James Verwey signed the Faerie Glen Licence on 18 January 2016 – giving him access to the entire area known as the Pretoria New East. James comes with a wealth of experience and background in various fields. He started his life after school by studying law at the University of Stellenbosch after which he entered the motor industry. After 10 years in senior management positions at Toyota SA, he moved on by joining Toyota in the UAE as Marketing Director for Toyota and Lexus for a further 10 years. From there he joined Premier Motors in Abu Dhabi, one of the leading distributors in the world with iconic Brands like Ferrari, Maserati, Jaguar, Land Rover, Ford and Lincoln as MD. It is also at this stage where he first came into contact with the E&V brand, as well as meeting Debra Campbell, Licence Partner of Engel & Völkers Broadacres & Bryanston. Returning to South Africa only 2 years ago, James decided he was not ready for an early retirement and started investigating the possibility of taking on real

estate. As fate would have it, he crossed paths again with Debra who mentioned to him the opportunities within the Engel & Völkers brand after which he immediately made contact with Craig Hutchison, CEO of Engel & Völkers Southern Africa. It was definitely a match made, as Etienne Pretorius, previous licence partner of Engel & Völkers New East wanted to give his other ventures more attention and was looking for a buyer for both his Silver Lakes and Moreletta Licences. As James had just bought a house in Pretoria East, this was the perfect fit - on his doorstep. Being quite the established and well experienced business man, James has been interested in the brand and has been watching it grow over the past 2 years, and after having recently gone through the property buying process, immediately fell in love with the E&V model. “I found Engel & Völkers very structured and specialised, and knew that this would be my new path” said James. The transaction between Etienne and James was concluded earlier in January, and not letting grass grow, he immediately extended his licence territory to also include the Faerie Glen area. James said that his secret to success is team work. “I believe in leading and guiding people but still

leaving enough room for them to grow, develop, live out their dreams and shape their own careers. Lyle Landsman, current team leader at the Silver Lakes shop will continue to manage and run all 3 areas with James acting in a supporting role to assist Lyle grow the brand from strength to strength. They are already recruiting agents for the Faerie Glen area, and will be looking at a prime location between Moreletta Park and Faerie Glen to open their next shop. “We wish James, Lyle and their team the best and know that they have a winning recipe for continued success, which is something that the Silver Lakes shop is not unfamiliar with” concluded Craig.

Helpful interior decorating tips decorate

H H Shape Layout

interiors

U Shape Layout

Set The Tone at The Front Door If you want your house to make a great ﬁrst impression, paint the front door a fun, glossy hue. Red is a lucky color in many cultures. A red door meant "welcome" to weary travellers in early America, and on churches it represents a safe haven. Two other hues gaining favor: orange and yellow. Both colours are associated with joy and warmth. One thing that should go: an outdated screen door. Get rid of it or replace it with a storm door.

Keep Wall Colors Light and Neutral S ck to colours like beige or grey, especially on the first floor, where flow is important. Neutral walls give you the greatest decora ng flexibility, allowing you to easily switch up your accessories. And if you have two small rooms next to each other, pain ng them the same neutral colour helps them feel larger. Look at a paint strip and move up or down a shade or two for a subtle varia on from room to room.

finishes

Hang at Least One Mirror in Every Room Mirrors can make a space feel brighter because they bounce the light around the room. But placing one in the wrong spot can be almost as bad as not having one at all. Put mirrors on walls perpendicular to windows, not directly across from them. Hanging a mirror directly opposite a window can actually bounce the light right back out the window.

Scale Artwork to Your Wall There are few things more ridiculouslooking than hanging dinky li le art too high on the wall. The middle of a picture should hang at eye level. If one person is short and the other tall, average their heights. Also take scale into account; for a large wall, go big with one oversize piece or group smaller pieces gallery-style. For the la er, don't space the pictures too far apart; 5 to 10cm between items usually looks best.

Make Sure Your Couch Talks to Your Chairs Think of a nice hotel lobby: The furniture is arranged in groupings that invite conversa on. When you place the furniture in your living room, aim for a similar sense of balance and in macy. A conversa on area that has a U-shape, with a couch and two chairs facing each other at each end of the coﬀee table, or an H-shape, with a sofa directly across from two chairs and a coﬀee table in the middle, is ideal. One common mistake to avoid: Pushing all the furniture against the walls.

Let The Sun Shine In When it comes to heavy, outdated drapes, a naked bank of windows is be er than an ugly one. Ideally, window dressings should be func onal and elegant: Think sheers paired with full-length panels. If your room gets a lot of sun, opt for light colors that won't fade. The most recommended lightweight fabrics for panels are co on, linen, and silk blends because they tend to hang well.

lighting

Layer Your Ligh ng Every room should have three kinds of ligh ng: ambient, which provides overall illumina on and o en comes from ceiling ﬁxtures; task, which is o en found over a kitchen island or a reading nook; and accent, which is more decora ve, highligh ng, say, artwork. For a living room, you should have at least 3 wa s (42 lumens) per square foot. One visual trick is using uplights. Placing a canister uplight or a torchiere in the corner will cast a glow on the ceiling, making a room seem bigger.

Call in a Second Opinion to De-clu er The longer you live in a house, the less you see the mess over me. Some mes you need a fresh pair of eyes. You can ask a friend for their opinion and then tackle bookshelves and closets, which stagers say are o en packed with twice the amount of stuﬀ they should hold. Whi ling down what's on your shelves by 50 percent. Then mix horizontal stacks of books among the ver cal rows and intersperse decora ve objects, such as bowls or vases, among them.

INDUSTRY NEWS Should I fix my interest rate? If you are working to a tight monthly budget and you can afford to, it might be a good idea to fix your rate now, even though fixed rates are usually higher than variable rates. Many people make the mistake of waiting for rates to rise before locking themselves into a fixed rate. “Before buying a property, stress test your budget to ensure you will still be able to meet your mortgage repayments if rates start to rise. Should the interest rate go up, you need to be sure you will still be able to afford your monthly instalments” noted Craig Hutchison, CEO of Engel & Völkers Southern Africa. There are two interest rate options to choose from: § Fixed rate

For the fixed rate option, you pay a fixed instalment for an agreed period of time. The fixed rate duration ranges from 12 months to 36 months. The main difference between a fixed rate and a variable rate is that the instalment with the fixed rate does not change with interest rate changes during the 'fixed period'. § Variable interest rate

A variable interest rate option changes as interest rates change. When interest rate changes, the monthly instalment will also change, either decreasing or increasing accordingly.

How does foreign investment work in South Africa? Foreign investment consists of flows of capital from one nation to another in exchange for significant ownership stakes in domestic companies or other domestic assets. Typically, foreign investment entails that foreigners take an active role in the management of their investment.

Völkers Southern Africa. South Africa is reputed to have one of the best deeds registration systems worldwide with an exceptional degree of accuracy and of tenure being granted. Property can be owned individually, jointly in undivided shares or by an entity such as a company, close corporation or trust or a similar entity registered outside South Africa.

“South Africa follows a system of land registration where every piece of land is reflected on a diagram and ownership recorded in one of the regionally located Deeds Registries where documents are available for public viewing” explained Craig Hutchison, CEO of Engel &

Foreigners are referred to as non-residents, whose normal place of residence is outside of South Africa. There are certain restrictions on property ownership by non-residents and illegal aliens are prohibited from owning immovable property within South Africa.

How is property pricing determined? Owning a property and knowing its value is as important as knowing your ID number these days. If it is an investment you take seriously and you would like to know the value of your holding, one should get a professional opinion on a property valuation. “A property valuation is an estimated market value of a property, determined using a sophisticated statistical calculation” informed Craig Hutchison, CEO of Engel & Völkers Southern Africa. Not only will the price of your home get influenced by what is happening, on the political stage of the country you live in, the area and surrounding suburbs also play a vital role in the evaluation as well. The fact that it has easy access to highways, shopping centres and schools will have your price looking to the plus side in the ideal location. Overall the condition and upkeep of your property is one of the biggest factors which result in home owners losing money when the opportunity for sale presents itself. It’s always best to consult a professional property sales advisor before investing, as most of them are qualified to forecast the direction of what the property pricing scale shall move in years to come.

CORPORATE NEWS

Record year in 2015: Engel & Völkers grows turnover by over 100 million euros The Engel & Völkers Group increased its commission revenues in the ﬁnancial year 2015 by over 100 million euros, setting a new all-time record once again.

urnover commission rose by 36.4% to 409.8 million euros (R6,9 billion) (2014: 300.3 million euros). “Never before has the Engel & Völkers Group achieved such a high rate of revenue growth,” said Christian Völkers, CEO/ Founder of Engel & Völkers AG. The Group's Residential division played a key role in the high revenue growth. In the DACH region, residential property shops generated 15.2% higher overall turnover than in 2014. This substantial rise was seen in many other European countries too: the Engel & Völkers Shops in Italy increased their commission revenues by 74%. In Spain there was a 27% growth in revenues, with Belgium recording a growth of 22%. Moreover, Engel & Völkers gained new market share in key real estate markets outside of Europe. Its strong expansion in North America has resulted in a 133% rise in revenues there. The Commercial division also achieved significant growth. The commercial offices increased commission revenues by 30.3%

over the previous year to approx. 74 million euros. In addition to its strong franchise operations, Engel & Völkers has managed to expand rapidly in selected international cities with its Market Center concept. The Group-owned offices, which accommodate up to 300 real estate agents, are located in key strategic locations worldwide. Last year alone, Engel & Völkers doubled its number of Market Centers (MC). The MC in Barcelona, which opened in 2013, generated commission revenues in excess of 10 million euros for the first time. “We're delighted that our efforts to establish the Market Center concept have been such a success,” said Christian Völkers. Engel & Völkers now has a global workforce of more than 7,000 employees, and opened its 700th location last year. The company is planning to significantly expand its number of locations in

internationally known first and second home markets. The focus here will be on Africa, Europe and North America. This expansion brings with it an increased need for qualified employees. “Once again this year we want to recruit an additional 2,000 real estate agents,” Christian Völkers added. On the Southern African front, Engel & Völkers will be adopting the same formula of success. Expansion to more locations nationally and recruitment of quality and highly qualified real estate agents will be the main focus. 2015 was a year of significant growth for the Southern African master licence with new franchises opening their doors as well as the Engel & Völkers brand attracting a record number of talented Sales Advisors. “Looking forward to another successful year, we are confident that very soon Engel & Völkers Southern Africa will be available to bring exceptional European service to every doorstep in the country as we have already signed 3 new licence areas this year, and see great promise in the increasing growth of our national family” Says Craig Hutchison, CEO to Engel & Völkers Southern Africa Master licence.
