Occupational rent is an important clause in every sales agreement that needs to be negotiated between the buyer and seller.

O

Understanding occupational rent Buyers and sellers might gloss over this detail in the excitement of seeing a property change hands but it should not be ignored BY BONNY FOURIE bronwyn.fourie@inl.co.za

CCUPATIONAL rent: a concept that most buyers and sellers have some idea about – but they are not always certain of the nitty gritty.

Who pays the rent to whom? How is this rent calculated? And when does it become payable?

These questions can be answered in the sales agreement between the buyer and seller – but the details are often overlooked in the excitement of finalising the transaction. This can lead to friction down the line.

Craig Mott, Cape Town regional sales manager for the Rawson Property Group, says occupational rent is an amount payable by the occupant of a property before transfer of the property has taken place. This makes occupational rent similar to a tenant paying rent. The amount is stipulated in the agreement of sale and is usually equal to the amount the property can be let for.

“The differences between occupational rent and ordinary rent lie in the expectation of a change of ownership because the property is in the process of being sold.”

WHO PAYS IT? AND WHY? Mott says the occupational rent clause in an agreement of sale is to make sure that the seller is financially compensated if the buyer moves into a property before registration and transfer occurs. It can also protect the buyer if the seller stays on in the property after transfer.

“The logic behind this arrangement is that irrespective of an impending change of ownership, the current owner is still required to service their bond repayment, and manage costs associated with the upkeep of the property, until ownership is transferred.”

Mott says this rent becomes payable for a number of reasons but usually because there is some delay between

moving dates and the finalising of the property transfer.

WHERE TO FIND THE DETAILS? Occupational rent – or occupational interest, as it is sometimes called – is usually mentioned in the agreement of sale, says Basil Moraitis, Pam Golding Properties regional head in the Western Cape. The most obvious exception is when the buyer will take occupation of the property only on transfer.

It becomes “very difficult” for a resident seller and buyer to time and book a move if the occupation date is not stipulated.

“Where the occupation date is stipulated, then occupational rental is a must. This is to ensure that the party enjoying occupation of the property, while not being the registered owner, pays an appropriate amount to the registered owner.”

Ynnis Willson, branch manager at Jawitz Properties Randburg, says in some instances, such as when the date of occupation is stipulated as “on registration”, the amount of occupational rent will be deleted or left blank because it is not applicable.

However, it is not best practice to leave this blank or delete it as the transfer process is often unpredictable in terms of timing, and circumstances might change along the way.

“Therefore, even if occupation is on registration, it is always best to negotiate the rental amount when negotiating the sale,” she says.

RISKS OF NOT PAYING ATTENTION TO THE CLAUSE If occupational rent is not discussed at the time of the sale negotiation, and circumstances change during the course of registration, Willson says the party who needs occupation could be at a disadvantage as the price negotiated at this stage could be in favour of the other party.

“It can be that a seller might need to

retain occupation after registration, or the purchaser may need to move in prior to taking ownership of the property.”

If occupational rent is not included in an agreement and, the need arises to reinstate it, says Lisa Connellan, sales and rental manager at Knight Frank, then negotiations between the parties is “a lot tougher”.

“On occasion, it has resulted in a situation where parties cannot agree and one party needs to seek interim accommodation.”

While agents and conveyancing attorneys can do their utmost to register a transfer on the date agreed to in the contract, she says the Deeds Office turnaround time does fluctuate and there may be situations where a buyer or seller intended to only move on the selected transfer date but now needs to move sooner or later.

SETTING THE AMOUNT There are a few schools of thought on this, Connellan says, emphasising whichever method is used, the amount needs to encourage the parties to either move out as soon as possible (in the case of the seller) or want the transfer to register as soon as possible (for the buyer).

“A starting point to establish the amount of occupational interest would be 1% of the purchase price but this can be negotiated by parties to a figure to which they both agree.”

Echoing this, Moraitis says the rate is usually determined by what the parties agree to be reasonable but, as a guideline, may be calculated in accordance with the rent the property would fetch on the open market, possibly with a slight premium.

This does depend on the parties though, Willson adds.

“It is very seldom that an amount cannot be agreed, but should that occur, then the parties will need to agree to only move on registration.”

Connellan adds: “Be fair and

reasonable when negotiating and be sure to include this clause in your contracts upfront, even if occupation is only on date of transfer. This is for the benefit of both parties and may never come into effect but is best negotiated upfront.”

HOW FLEXIBLE IS THE DATE? The conveyancing attorneys will keep the parties up to date on the progress of the transfer, once the property has been lodged in the Deeds Office and Willson says the turnaround time is usually between six and 10 days, which gives both parties time to plan accordingly.

If the seller is unable to move out by that date, they are liable to pay occupational rent from the day after transfer.

“In terms of the contract, the clause is enforceable, however, in most circumstances, both parties come to an amicable arrangement.”

Moraitis agrees: “Property transfer is planned and logged in the Deeds Office, so it will never come as a surprise that transfer was registered. Therefore, the party responsible for paying occupational rent should be adequately prepared to do so from the date of transfer. The agreement would also stipulate the method of computation of the rent and how it is to be paid.”

HOW IS IT PAID? Willson says occupational rent is prorata based on the number of days of occupation. Should the purchasers take occupation before registration then the rent will be due and payable prior to them taking occupation.

“Normally, we request that this be processed through the conveyancing attorneys as this will allow them to do the pro-rata calculations on registration.

In the event of the seller retaining occupation post registration, the conveyancing attorneys may assist again by deducting the pro-rata occupational rent from proceeds of sale.”

Letter from the editor ONE of our fastest growing digital magazines is our sister publication Home Improver (http://bit.ly/ HomeImprover). With a sharp increase of over 55 000 unique views last year, it was clear South Africans were using their lockdown to fix up their homes.

As editor of Home Improver, I received numerous emails last year from our readers relating to things such as: ● How can we painlessly declutter our home? ● How can I turn our dining room into a classroom? ● We live in a small apartment and both my partner and I work from home. Help, what can we do especially when we both have to be on zoom call?

There were also an inordinate number of DIY questions and readers looking for tricks and tips to improve their homes on a budget.

These certainly were a far cry from questions and emails we used to get about simply beautifying the home.

Added to that, our gardening section took off.

Homeowners and tenants wanted to have gardens that were not only beautiful but functional – spaces where children could play in hard lockdown but also gardens that could feed the household.

Even apartment dwellers were finding some green inside or on balconies to connect them to nature, which we were cut off from in levels 5 and 4.

We started viewing our homes differently. Many of us used to leave the house before the sun came up, go to work and only return at night to eat a meal and go to sleep.

With longer periods indoors, we were able to see things that needed fixing and areas we had overlooked.

We started to give our homes some love, realising the spaces in which we live have a direct impact on our mental and physical health.

Here’s to happy days in your homes.

Warm regards

The past year’s lockdowns encouraged homeowners to carry out upgrades and renovations.

Changing rooms for changing times

Many homeowners took lockdown as an opportunity to improve their residences so they could fulfil their new functions as offices, classrooms and even gyms

BY BONNY FOURIE bronwyn.fourie@inl.co.za

M

ANY South African homeowners have been hard at work over the past year, renovating their homes, undertaking maintenance, and making their spaces work better for them.

This increase in activity started during last year’s hard lockdown, which saw people confined to their properties for most of the year, and then further encouraged by the drastic lifestyle changes that followed.

Areas of particular focus have been the garden and other outdoor areas, work-from-home spaces and multi-functional areas used by all household members.

It is therefore not surprising that hardware stores reported aboveaverage levels of confidence last year which, although now slowing, still indicate steady levels of home renovation and upgrades.

Siphamandla Mkhwanazi, senior economist at FNB, says building manufacturer confidence increased during the first three months of this year because of “a continued rise in production and domestic sales”. The plausible reason for this, he says, is still-strong retail hardware sales which saw the business confidence of hardware retailers reach 64 in Q4 2020 – much higher than its longterm average of 49.

However, he cautions: “Most of the

positive effect of working from home and increased disposable income – for those who managed to keep their jobs last year and did not take a pay cut – on hardware sales is likely behind us. Going forward, growth may come under pressure here too.”

Reflecting on the past year, Graeme Steen, chief executive of Kandua.com – a South African online home services marketplace – says trends showed people increasingly investing in home improvements, with the number of monthly requests posted on the portal increasing by 750% compared to April last year.

“Renovation requests have doubled... During the initial weeks of strict lockdown, only emergency home repair services could operate.

When lockdown eased, there was not only pent-up demand but also an overall increase in improvements and fixes that people wanted to conduct in their homes.”

Echoing this, Cedric Sennepin, chief executive of Leroy Merlin South Africa, which partners with Kandua, says it has experienced an ongoing increase in sales since reopening on May 1.

“We’re spending more time at home than ever before. This means more wear and tear around the home and also that you’re more likely to notice issues or have ideas for home improvement.”

At first, many homeowners took

on relatively simple DIY projects as a stress reliever or a fulfilling way to spend their idle time at home.

“We saw a massive increase in sales for interior paint, decorative, gardening and organisational products,” says Sennepin.

As the demands on time and homes increased though, more people turned to professionals to get the job done.

The pair attributes the increase in home improvement to a number of factors, including that homes have become multifunctional spaces.

“Over the past year, our homes have also become our offices, classrooms, gyms, movie theatres and even restaurants,” Steen says.

“This is reflected in the increased demand for renovation services.

People are transforming their spaces to adapt to their changing lifestyles and are investing money in their homes that would normally be spent on things like travel and entertainment.”

Homeowners are, however, cautioned against over-capitalising on their renovations, especially if they are planning to sell in the near future. In addition to spending no more than 5% to 10% of the total value of the property on renovations, Steen says owners need to research the average selling price of properties in their area.

“Not every improvement or

upgrade is necessarily going to boost the value of your home. Be strategic – upgraded kitchens and bathrooms add the most value. Renovations that make the house ‘greener’, increasing efficiency, reducing energy bills and benefiting the environment, are becoming increasingly popular.”

Outdoor entertainment areas and landscaped gardens are also “guaranteed to add value” if they are renovated and updated well, says Alen Ribic, chief technology officer of SweepSouth, a mobile app that connects homeowners and professionals like plumbers, painters, handymen and electricians.

“Carefully consider what to spend money on.

“In a kitchen, for example, it pays to invest in gorgeous, functional items, such as a gas hob, a centre island and new counters, and save money by revamping cabinets and giving the walls a fresh coat of paint.”

For homeowners looking to make wise upgrades that will appeal to buyers, Pearl Scheltema, chief executive of Fitzanne Estates says: “Buyers are looking for spaces that offer convenience, value, and room for all the new roles a home should play.

“Opportunity also knocks for those willing to invest in sustainable buildings, with a renewed emphasis being placed on homes that offer independence from load shedding.”

Buy-to-let investors should ensure the property they are interested in has dedicated work-fromhome space.

How to stand out from the crowd A Qualified Buyer’s Certificate will boost your chances of securing the home of your dreams

BY BONNY FOURIE bronwyn.fourie@inl.co.za Q: What is the difference between having pre-approval for a home loan and having a Qualified Buyer’s Certificate?

A: One thing that will help you stand out to sellers, estate agents and banks is a Qualified Buyer’s Certificate. This involves a more in-depth process than a pre-approval and is executed by financial experts. ooba Home Loans has found that potential home buyers with a Qualified Buyer’s Certificate increase their chances of being approved by over 90%.

To attain such a certificate with ooba Home Loans, an applicant’s credit score, income and expenses are examined with the help of our home loan experts. The process is similar to what the bank will look into when processing your home loan application.

Simply put, a Qualified Buyer’s Certificate is a more robust version of a pre-qualification. It is conducted by a home finance expert who evaluates your affordability in much the same way that the banks do. Documents are assessed, in-depth credit checks are performed and your financial position is determined before you receive the certificate.

While pre-approval is all but expected by leading estate agents these days, a Qualified Buyer’s Certificate lends an extra dimension of reliability which really helps you stand out from the crowd. – Rhys Dyer, chief executive of ooba Home Loans Q: I have heard there are new laws about having asbestos in your home and also having it removed? How can I check if my home has any asbestos?

A: It’s estimated that as many as one in three unrenovated properties built before 1980 will have asbestos present, so it’s critical that property owners and buyers understand the implications.

Last November, asbestos was outlawed and building owners were given 18 months to plan its removal from their properties, including homes, residential complexes, schools and all commercial and industrial buildings.

Property owners should not try to identify asbestos on their own because the easiest way to determine its presence is also the most dangerous – there is a very high risk of the exposed asbestos fibres finding their way into the air your family

or employees breathe. It might be difficult to identify asbestos just by looking at it, so you need to send samples to a lab for testing and the mere act of taking samples could well release fibres.

DIY enthusiasts should also take extra care when renovating older homes.

Common building products that might contain asbestos include: • Steam pipes, geysers and furnace ducts.

• The backing on vinyl sheet flooring and adhesives used for installing floor tiles.

• Cement sheets and millboard used as insulation around wood-burning stoves.

• Door gaskets in furnaces, wood stoves and coal stoves.

• Patching and joint compounds for walls and ceilings.

• Textured paints.

• Asbestos cement roofing, shingles and siding.

• Artificial embers in gas-fired fireplaces.

Other, older household products which might contain asbestos are fireproof gloves, stove-top pads and ironing board covers. – Michaal de Jager of Michaal de Jager Ontwerp Q: Is it a bad idea to buy an investment property now? And if I were to buy one, how could I be sure I’d be buying the right one?

A: Buy-to-let purchasing has fallen off in the past year in response to the Covid19-induced problems with defaulting tenants, rising vacancies and very low rent increases. However, for investors with a medium to long-term outlook, now is actually the best time to buy a carefully selected rental property.

Interest rates are really low and prices are negotiable, so astute investors are finding excellent opportunities to acquire properties where the rental income will cover their costs for now and they can expect both rental and capital growth in the future.

According to the FNB Property Barometer, up to 30% of property sellers in the below-R750 000 price bracket are downscaling due to financial pressure, or disposing of investment properties to improve their financial positions. And sellers in such circumstances are often

more willing to negotiate than others.

We believe properties in this price category are likely to be those most in demand among tenants in the future.

Investors also need to be clear on their strategy and expect medium to long-term gains from rental income and capital growth.

Other than price, the most important factors to be taken into account in a buyto-let decision include the location of the property with regard to shops and other amenities, excellent security features and, increasingly, a dedicated work-from-home space. – Gerhard Kotzé, managing director of the RealNet estate agency group Q: I know the experts advise that landlords should try not to increase tenants’ rents at the moment but I think my landlord might want an increase. I do not want to move out of this property but also cannot really afford an increase. What can I do?

A: The South African rental market is reflecting negative growth for the first time in years, which puts tenants in a good position if they want to negotiate their rent with their landlord.

The record-low interest rates have made it possible for the repayments on a home loan to be lower than the rent one would pay on the same property. Tenants can use this information as leverage when negotiating against a rent increase.

However, a landlord does not need to forgo the increase and may choose not to renew the lease once it has expired.

It is unlikely that a tenant’s lease will be renewed if they have made late rental payments or have had neighbours or homeowners’ associations complain about their behaviour.

It is also unlikely that the lease will be renewed if they have made too many unreasonable demands, have been regularly uncooperative or have damaged the property.

On the other hand, tenants who have been reliable and easy to work with will have gained favour with the landlord.

W O R L D MILLENNIALS GO THEIR OWN WAY GLOBALLY, millennials have overtaken baby-boomers as the largest property buying demographic and their needs are very different from their predecessors – including what they expect from estate agents.

In the real estate industry, the new guard is beginning to make their distinctive mark by doing things differently, says Yael Geffen, chief executive of Lew Geffen Sotheby’s International Realty.

“They are extremely

brand savvy – not only do they recognise the value of establishing their own personal brands, they know that the best way to do so is to align themselves with established and successful, large real estate brands.

“They also continually engage with clients and potential clients. They don’t just use social media to advertise properties for sale, they cultivate a strong following by making and posting their own videos which share as much about them as people and

professionals as it does about real estate.”

However, Geffen believes the most important quality is authenticity.

“Authenticity is a critical key to success but it has to be genuine...

Self-awareness and transparency take considerable self-reflection and the conviction and courage to strive to do the right thing are not always easy but it’s well worth the effort as you’ll not only reap professional rewards, but personal ones too.”

Older homeowners can help their adult children buy property by taking out a second bond or downsizing.

TIPS FOR GIVING YOUR ADULT CHILDREN A HAND IN PURCHASING A FIRST PROPERTY PARENTS considering helping their children to get a foot on to the property ladder have no better time than to do it now.

Here are a couple of ways to aid them, says Carl Coetzee, chief executive of BetterBond: • Buy together: You can buy a property with your children. Pooling funds in this way could help secure a bigger bond or better property and is certainly a more cost-effective way for first-home

buyers to get into property.

If you decide to buy a property as a co-owner with your children, but you don’t want to be tied to monthly bond payments, you could cover your share by taking out a second bond on your own home or release funds by downsizing and buying a smaller home.

However, he adds: “Using profit you’ve made from your house sale in this way should only be done if you have sufficient pension funds in place.”

• Help them save: If your young adult children are working, but still living at home, it’s a good idea to charge them rent, and put a portion of it aside in an interest-bearing account in your name, to give them towards a deposit when they’re ready to become first-time homeowners.

IF IN TROUBLE, APPROACH YOUR BANK BEFORE YOUR BANK APPROACHES YOU

New-age real estate agents are revolutionising the profession.

Being a good tenant can pay off

Taking care of small repairs and maintenance could put you in good standing with your landlord.

Avoid the anxiety of home loan repayment struggles by contacting your bank as soon as possible.

TENANTS might be in a strong position to negotiate a low – or even no – rent increase with their landlords, given the difficult state of the rental market,but their conduct as tenants will have the biggest influence over their chances.

Those who hope to position themselves well for rental negotiations, should consider these recommendations provided by Grant Rea, rental specialist at Re/Max Living: • Always pay your rent on time and in full. This might mean consistently paying one day before the rent is due. Ensure all utilities are paid promptly.

• Keep the agent/landlord informed of any necessary maintenance issues and be flexible with access for repairs.

• Be reasonable and understand that the agent or landlord cannot be obliged to attend to any and every small maintenance item. Sometimes fixing it yourself will aid your cause when negotiating a lower increase.

• Keep the property neat, clean, and presentable.

• Keep a record of items you have attended to or improved within the property. Remind the agent or landlord of these without trying to coerce a lower increase.

5 WAYS TO MAKE MOVING HOME STRESS-FREE Many experts believe that moving home can be one of life’s most stressful events. But with a little planning and preparation, you can take the anxiety, tension and pressure out of it. Check out these five ways you can easily minimise moving stress for a smoother, happier and more positive experience.

1. Draw a budget Moving home is not only a stressful experience, but can also turn into a costly one. To avoid unnecessary spending, your first step is to look at how much you have to spend on the actual moving process. By drawing up a budget, you will have a better idea on how much you can spend on moving services and how much you can spend on packing requirements like bubble wrap, boxes and tape. It should also give you a good idea on whether you can splurge on a packing service or if you may need to arrange that yourself.

2. Decide on DIY or Professional Movers Once you know how much you have to spend on the move, it’s time to decide on whether you will make use of the services of a professional mover or if you will do it yourself. Keep in mind that a DIY move isn’t always the easiest, best or most cost-effective option – especially if you’re moving a fair distance that will require you to make several trips back and forth. Aside from renting a trailer or truck, you will also have to hire labour to assist; and this can become an expensive exercise.

Instead, ask your friends and family (Facebook is a great place to start) to recommend movers they’ve used in the past – there might be smaller and independent movers that you might not know about and that might fit within your budget. Don’t just settle for the first recommendation either. Contact the various recommended companies for quotes; we’re almost certain you will find one that won’t blow your budget.

Once you’ve decided on what option works best, make sure you book it as soon as possible.

Movers, in particular, are often reserved weeks in advance. Another pro-tip is to consider moving mid-week and mid-month; these are often cheaper, as the demand is lower.

3. Notify relevant people Your move may not necessarily fall on a weekday, but you may still want to take time off before and/or after your move – as said, moving can be stressful, and downtime can be just what the doctor ordered. So, consider the possibility of taking time off. Also notify your close friends and family about your move, so that they can assist with babysitting and/or pet-sitting, lend a helping hand with the actual move, or even send you and your family a warm meal after a long day of moving.

4. Pack like a pro Once you know who is moving your home contents, it’s time to start packing. The key rule here is to start sooner rather than later: leaving things to the last minute will only add additional anxiety to an already stressful situation. Plus, working in advance of your move will give

you enough time to sort through your possession, throw out or donate unwanted items, and wrap up and box the items that you’re taking with you.

Here are a few pointers to pack like a pro: • Source supplies: make sure you have all the right stuff for packing. You can source boxes from your local grocer or purchase new boxes or re-useable plastic boxes from specialist suppliers or moving companies. Don’t forget the bubble wrap or newspaper to wrap up fragile items and tape to ensure your boxes are well sealed.

•

Keep track: Keeping track of what you’ve packed in which box is one of the trickier sides of starting to pack earlier. The easiest way around this is to pack the non-essential items room by room and clearly label each box with its destination in your new house and what some of the contents are – make sure you add the labels on the side of the boxes, so that you can still read them when they’re stacked. On the day of the move, make sure you instruct the movers to place the relevant boxes in the relevant room; this will prevent you wasting time lugging heavy boxes around yourself and will give you more time to focus on unpacking.

Another pro-tip is to mark every box packed and then correlate the numbers (and contents, if you like) on a spreadsheet on your computer or physical notebook. This will make it easy to check that nothing gets left behind.

5. Action items the day before your move Turn your fridge and freezer off the night before you move, to allow sufficient time for it to defrost and to be cleaned out before your move. Make sure you empty the drain pipes and dirt traps on your dishwasher, washing machine and dryer; lock your valuables and very fragile breakables in your car the night before (please only lock your valuables away if you have secure, safe parking - alternatively, ask a close family member to store them for you for the duration of your move). Don’t water your pot plants at least 2 days before your move, as this will make them heavier to carry and more likely to drip or stain other items.

Lastly, don’t forget to keep a few essential items aside for the day of the move. These include a change of clothes; basic toiletries; a first aid kit with headache tablets and plasters; snacks and drinks to fuel up on the day of the move; a dustpan and brush; black bags; and a couple extra boxes and tape on hand. If you’ve not been able to arrange a babysitter for your kids on the day of move, make sure that you keep some toys, books and games aside that will keep them occupied while moving.
