A first for South Africa –
bathroom taps that combine style with water-saving technology means advanced and enhanced functionality, innovative spray patterns that reduce water wastage, unique designs, self-cleaning and touch or hands-free activation. Consumers are looking to streamline without compromising quality, looks or longevity,” says Williams.
B
uilding a brand new home or looking to do a bathroom makeover? Then carefully consider the types of taps and faucets to install. There are myriad selections to choose from and it helps to narrow it down so that your final purchase consists of fixtures that not only look fabulous, but are of exceptional quality and do much more than just ensure that your hot and cold water balance is just right.
“Many buyers and investors look for homes that are already water wise or can be converted into a water-saving property with minimal additions and alterations, especially in areas such as the Western Cape. Technologically advanced, water-wise bathrooms can be a dealmaker in these instances,” continues Williams.
Wendy Williams, Director of Engel & Völkers Southern Africa, explains that a common thread that has been evident in bathroom design trends for 2018 is that homeowners are relying on tech, tiles and bold accents to make their bath time more engaging for the senses.
Water-saving functionality Considering our country's limited water resources, multi-national kitchen and bathroom brand Kohler has designed several solutions to avoid water wastage. A first in South Africa, their anti-drip technology reduces water wastage in showerheads. A self-levelling ball joint reduces water dripping by up to 80% when closed and the increased number of nozzles also means an enhanced showering experience.
“Consumers are looking for fixtures that are not only stylish, but also functional. For faucets, this
Coupled to this is another design improvement featuring air-induction technology that infuses 2
litres of air per minute into the water droplets making them larger and warmer for a more luxurious experience. Kohler's latest range also includes RaceTrack technology showerheads that provide an even and more consistent spray for optimal coverage, thereby reducing overspray and unnecessary wastage. Another water saving feature, called Kohler's Detent Technology, is an intermediate stop built into tap levers for an up to 50% water saving. This design trait means that you can use taps in intermediate and full-flow modes. Bathroom Design “Home owners need to think smart when it comes to bathroom design and fixtures. Bathrooms are a space for renewal, an escape from the humdrum and these non-tactile elements need to be considered. Water saving is also a reality and this needs to be incorporated so that we can still enjoy its effects,” says Heather Darby of Bathroom by Design.

Home Loan Interest Rates 101 BY VERUSKA DE VITA
Gerrit Disbergen, Director of EV Financial Services says that buying a house is one of the biggest decisions in life and, albeit an exciting one, it is not to be taken lightly especially when it concerns home loans, lending rates and repayments. Below is the lowdown on home loan interest rates: Personal interest rate A personal interest rate is as unique as a home and the individual who buys it. It is determined using a number of criteria and is based on the client's risk profile. Interest rate is one of the key costs to consider when comparing home loans. Prime lending rate, prime minus and prime plus The prime lending rate is currently 10% and is effectively the starting point that banks use to calculate interest rates for clients. It covers the bank's basic profit margin, which is then set higher or lower based on the applicant's risk profile. A riskier individual would get an above-prime loan, which would be at prime plus, for example, prime plus 1% making it a lending rate of 11%. A low-risk client could get prime or lower, for example prime minus 1%, which means a lending rate of 9%. What determines interest rates? The prime lending rate is a marked-up version of the repo rate. The repo rate is the interest rate commercial banks pay to borrow money from the Reserve Bank. At the moment it is sitting at 6,5%. By raising or lowering the repo rate, the Reserve Bank makes it more or less expensive for commercial banks to borrow money. This in turn affects how affordably they can lend money to consumers and this determines the prime lending rate. The repo rate changes according to economic climate. Higher interest rates make borrowing money more expensive thus deterring people from making big investments, so there is less money circulating in the economy which slows down inflation. To kick start a sluggish economy, interest rates are lowered to encourage investment. If the repo rate goes up, prime goes up and the amount you pay on your bond increases. If the repo rate goes down, prime goes down and those savings are passed on to you. For example, if your bond is prime plus 1% and the lending rate climbs from 10% to 10.65% then your monthly installments on your bond increase, and vice versa if prime decreases. A lower interest rate means more affordable monthly repayments as well as substantial savings on the total cost of your home over the lifetime of the bond. If there is a hike in interest rate however, it could significantly affect your cash flow as your bond repayments would increase.
Fixed interest rates Banks also provide the option of a fixed interest rate home loan structure, usually for a specific length of time of up to five years. This means that the interest rate doesn't fluctuate during the fixed rate period, allowing you to accurately predict and plan for future payments as you will know exactly what your repayments are. Usually, consumers fix their interest rate if they believe that the interest rate cycle is on an upward trajectory. This said, the decision to fix a home loan interest rate depends on individual circumstances and should be a carefully considered option. It is ideal for consumers who own multiple properties as the stable rates would buttress against future rate hikes. The disadvantage of this option is that it could result in the homeowner missing out on savings should the Reserve Bank decide to switch to an interest rate reduction cycle. “At the end of the day, interest rate must work in your favour and fit in with your financial profile. Do your research and speak to a financial consultant and bond originator before deciding on a home loan option. EV Financial Services is well placed to assist you in obtaining the best interest rate for your home loan� says Gerrit. To continue reading, please scan the QR code or visit www.nationalguide.co.za

Feel good with
Summer Smoothies Mango Smoothie Ingredients Ÿ 1 ripe mango Ÿ 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt Ÿ ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
Raspberry-rhubarb Bellini Smoothie with Blueberries Ingredients Rhubarb Simple Syrup Ÿ 4 stalks rhubarb, chopped Ÿ 1 ⅓ cup sugar Ÿ 2 cups water Ÿ 1 sprig fresh mint, chopped Raspberry-Rhubarb Bellini Smoothie with Blueberries Ÿ 340 g fresh or thawed frozen raspberries, plus more for garnishing Ÿ ⅓ cup rhubarb simple syrup Ÿ 1 cup frozen blueberries, divided Ÿ 4 to 6 bottles sparkling water or other sparkling wine, chilled Ÿ 170 g fresh blueberries Ÿ fresh mint, for garnish Instructions Ÿ Rhubarb Simple Syrup Combine the rhubarb, sugar and water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until the rhubarb breaks down, about 10 minutes. Ÿ Remove from the heat, add the mint and let sit 1 minute, then strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer. The mixture should be syrupy. If it's too watery, return to the pot and continue cooking until the mixture is slightly reduced. Cover and refrigerate until cold, about 1 hour. Ÿ Skewer the fresh blueberries on wood skewers. Ÿ Add 340 g fresh raspberries and 1/3 cup of the rhubarb simple syrup to a blender and blend until completely smooth. Divide the frozen blueberries among 3-4 glasses. Ÿ Divide the blended raspberry-rhubarb mixture among each glass. Pour the sparkling water or other sparkling wine into each glass. Add your blueberry stick and swirl to mix. Garnish with a few fresh raspberries and a sprig of mint. Drink!
Instructions Ÿ Place the mango in the freezer for 30 minutes to allow it to cool. If you are in a hurry you can skip this step and add 2 ice cubes into the smoothie instead. Remove the skin of the mango with a food peeler, Cut mango into medium chunks, reserve about 1 teaspoon of mango to use later for garnish on the smoothie (dice the reserved mango into small pieces) . Ÿ Place the mango, Greek yogurt and ¼ teaspoon cinnamon in the blender. Blend for 2-3 minutes on high or until the mixture is creamy. Use a spoon to scrape the edges of the blender if any mango gets stuck on the sides. Pour into a cup, top with the reversed mango and lightly sprinkle with cinnamon.
Layered Watermelon Coconut Shakes Ingredients Ÿ ¾ cup frozen coconut meat, slightly thawed Ÿ ½ cup full-fat canned coconut milk Ÿ ½ teaspoon coconut extract Ÿ 1 ½ c u p s f r o z e n wa t e r m e l o n c h u n k s (At least 2 hours+) Ÿ ¼ cup coconut water Ÿ 2 tablespoons honey Ÿ salty lime sugar Ÿ 1 tablespoons sugar Ÿ 1 teaspoon flaked sea salt Ÿ the zest of one lime Instructions Ÿ Begin by making the salty lime sugar. Once made, slice the lime and use it to rim the edges of 2 glasses. Dip the glasses in the sugar and coat them thoroughly. Ÿ You can layer the shake however you like, but start with the coconut so you don't have to wash out the blender. Ÿ Add the frozen coconut, milk and extract to a
blender and puree until thick and creamy. Pour evenly between two glasses. Add the frozen watermelon, coconut water and honey to the blender (if the lime still has some juice, squeeze the rest in here) and puree until smooth and frosty. Pour on top of the coconut layer and garnish with limes! Note: if you can't find frozen coconut meat, you can freeze young coconut meat or use it raw with a few ice cubes. Instead of either of those, you can swap the coconut meat entirely for a coconut ice cream! Salty Lime Sugar Ÿ Combine ingredients together in a bowl and mix with your fingers until the lime zest is evenly spread through the mixture.
Vegan “Orange Julius” Smoothie Ingredients Ÿ 2 ripe bananas, frozen (Yes, you an use room temp 'nanas in a pinch, but then you'll have to add more ice…) Ÿ 1 teaspoon fresh orange zest (This is the zest from about ½ an orange.) Ÿ 1½ cups fresh squeezed orange juice (This is the juice from about 2-3 oranges, depending on their size.) Ÿ ¾ cup unsweetened almond milk Ÿ ¾ teaspoon pure vanilla extract Ÿ 4-6 ice cubes Ÿ 1 tablespoon agave, optional (I don't think this smoothie needs it, but if you're into things extra sweet, go for it.) Instructions Ÿ Peel your bananas, place them in a Ziploc bag and freeze overnight. Ÿ Juice your oranges. You can do this using a fancy juicer, citrus press, or by hand. (Relax, you'll only need to juice 3 at most.) Ÿ Place the frozen bananas, orange zest, orange juice, almond milk, vanilla extract, and ice in a blender or food processor and puree until smooth. (Add agave to sweeten if necessary.) Ÿ Pour into two glasses and garnish with orange slices if you're feeling fancy.

MARKET
Selling your home to international clients BY VERUSKA DE VITA
W
which gives a seller the ability to be in a potential buyer's back yard, so to speak. The listing is in their language, they are viewing the property through a trusted real estate company and person” says Craig Hutchison, CEO Engel & Völkers Southern Africa.
hen it comes to selling property to overseas buyers, the world is quite literally your shiny oyster. South Africa is a sought after destination for various reasons. It has natural beauty that includes stretches of pristine beaches along the Atlantic and the Indian Oceans, the semi desert of the Karoo, the savanna of the Highveld and the Mediterranean climate of the western Cape. Yes, the Rand is volatile because the country is classified as an emerging market, but this also means that foreigners get excellent value for their Pounds, Euros and Dollars.
In terms of buying trends the market has cooled down dramatically. With the political upheaval, the volatility of the Rand compared to other currencies and general political uncertainty has resulted in people being more cautious, especially where it concerns the Western Cape and other regions that may be affected by land expropriation.
When sellers try to list it themselves on the internet, more often than not it is a hit and miss. Buyers and sellers must also be aware of scams. The best approach in terms of putting your property on the international market is to list it with a reputable, trusted multi-national real estate company such as Engel & Völkers. “E&V has a firm presence in 33 countries, over four continents,
“Foreign investors are taking a wait and see approach, especially if it's their first foray into the country. Those who have already invested in property in South Africa are less concerned as they have visited the country, they've experienced the process and realised the worth of property ownership in this market,” explains Gerrit Disbergen, Director Engel & Völkers Southern Africa.
Foreign investors who are buying their second property are a lot more accustomed to what is happening on the ground as opposed to relying on a variety of news sources, which currently tend to paint South Africa in a negative light. The investment trend is directly related to the instability of the Rand. When it goes through a period of significant volatility, buyers may be more reluctant as they want to see which way it is going to go. However, if foreign investors are willing to take a long-term view of the situation, politically and in terms of currency fluctuations, the benefits are enormous. “If you have a long-term view you get bang for your Dollar, especially if you will utilise the property and live in South Africa on a semipermanent or permanent basis. That's still a definite,” concludes Disbergen. To continue reading, please scan the QR code or visit www.nationalguide.co.za

How to determine your return on an investment home
O
wning properties can provide investors with steady rental income or capital appreciation when the property is sold for a profit. However, it is important to measure the return on investment (ROI) to determine the level of profitability of the property. Before investing in a rental property, there are a number of key factors to take into account explains Craig Hutchison, CEO of Engel & Völkers Southern Africa. “Location and the future of the location is the first and foremost aspect to consider when purchasing an investment property that will result in capital appreciation. The next features to take stock of are fixtures and fittings. Are they durable and will you have high maintenance costs?” “Thirdly,” says Hutchison, “establish if there is a demand for a particular property. Do your homework on the area and the types of properties that are in demand. It makes more strategic sense to invest in a two-bedroom unit instead of a three-bedroom house, if the demand for the former is greater.” Lastly, Hutchison recommends that buyers look at a five-year view to invest as a minimum time frame. Ten years is preferable as this will generate a more valuable return on investment, as this should give the best capital appreciation on a well located and maintained property.

Below is an outline of how to calculate ROI CASH PURCHASE If an individual purchases a property outright with no bond, the profitability or ROI is calculated as follows: ž If a property costs R1 000 000 and the transfer costs (conveyancing fees, transfer duty, deeds office fee and V.A.T.) are R30 000, the total investment is R1 030 000. ž Rent collection every month is R10,000
2 Bedrooms from R745 000 3 Bedrooms from R775 000
In 12 months' time as an example:
The Paddocks · Fourways
ž R120 000 in rental income is earned. ž However, there are expenses including maintenance, property taxes, levies
and insurance which could total R24 000 per year or R2 000 every month. ž The annual return is R96 000 (R120 000 – R24 000) for the year. ž The capital appreciation of the property after selling costs has increased by 3% equaling R30 900 (1 060 900 – 1 030 000) TO CALCULATE THE PROPERTY'S ROI: § Divide the annual return (R96 000 + R30 900 = R126 900) by the amount of the total investment (R1 030 000). § ROI = R126 900 ÷ R1 030 000 = 0.123 or 12.3%. § ROI is 12.3%. IF THE PROPERTY IS BONDED, THE PROFITABILITY IS WORKED OUT AS FOLLOWS: § On the same property for R1 million there will be added costs, including conveyancing fees, bond initiation costs, deeds office fee and V.A.T. § In addition to these costs, buyers should also make provision for additional charges, which can include rates and clearance certificates and prospective taxes amongst others. These costs amount to R30 000 resulting in the total cost being R1 03 million. § A down payment of R230 000 is made and the remaining R800 000 is bonded on a 20-year loan with a fixed interest rate of 10%. § The monthly principal and interest payment would be R7 720.17. § Add R2 000 per month to cover maintenance, property taxes, levies and insurance, which equals R9 720.17 in expenses every month. § With a rental income of R10 000 the owner would make R279.83 each month (rent minus bond repayment).
