What does being a DAD mean to you? Being a father of 2 girls means I'm always out voted 3 to 1 because they are always on mum's side.. but it also means that I'm king of the castle surrounded by my lovely ladies and that's quite a responsibility and honor. I always thought I would be on the sidelines of soccer games and karate practice but this was replaced by netball and ballet recitals with the arrival of my baby girls. Life would never be the same and I wouldn't change it for the world. Our children are treasures and truly are a gift from God!
- Denzel Samuel
Being a dad and being a real estate agent is like working two full-time jobs at once. But real estate gives me the flexibility of fulfilling my responsibilities as father and a real estate agent. Being a real estate agent I have learnt to balance out family life and my real estate career. With being in my profession, I have developed better time management skills to schedule around my day and work according to my kids school activities. - Sugan Naidu
Being a dad to my beautiful daughter has taught me that the world is bigger than me, it's taught me to be humble and patient and to see the best in the small things around me. Being a dad is a great responsibility but I have learned not to be so hard on myself and enjoy every moment! - Bradley Pandaram
Step-by-step guide to buying property in South africa
Step 1 Determine what you can afford
Step 2 – Assess your credit record
Are you thinking about buying a property in SA? Over the next few days we'll share a step by step process to purchase your dream property!
As far as your bank is concerned, your credit score is a big number above your head that tells them how much of a risk you are. Your credit score indicates to your bank whether your past debt repayment behaviour will make you a good risk or not. Through various calculations based on your transactional records, the credit bureau will provide your bank with a three-digit number ranging between 0 and 999. Naturally, the higher the better, and a high credit score rating is one of the most valuable personal finance assets you can have.
Before you start your house search, you should have a very clear idea of what financing is available to you for the transaction. A good starting point would be to use a bond affordability tool. This will provide you with your credit score, a summary of your affordability, and a realistic indication of your price ceiling.
Step 4 – Sign an offer to purchase
Step 5 – Apply for a home loan
Once you’ve found your dream home, and got all your finances in order, you’re ready to sign an offer to purchase.
Once you and the seller have come to an agreement, the next step is acquiring a home loan to fund your purchase. A home is a significant investment, hence why banks have a system in place to help people acquire them within their affordability range, without having to file for bankruptcy afterward.
This is an agreement between you and the seller that stipulates the terms and conditions for the sale of the property.

Step 3 – Find your ideal home Now the part people generally enjoy most about the home-buying process, the house hunt itself. Of course, this is also the most difficult part of the process, as this will all be for naught if you don’t find a home that meets your requirements. Of course, the first step is having a clear idea of what exactly those requirements are before embarking on a house hunt. Give some thought to: Where you want to live. Whether it’s important to be close to a school, medical facility, supermarket and shops, and other useful amenities. The desired size of the home and whether a garden is a necessity. Whether you want to live in a gated community. Whether it’s important to be in a quiet neighborhood. Once you have a clear idea of what you want, you can begin the house hunt.
Free services to help get your finances in order
Free assistance Consumers should not take knowing their credit status for granted, it impacts in your ability to be granted credit and for some consumers to even get employment. As one needs to advance in their life, you might need the assistance of a loan or even when trying times come, you might need to get an emergency loan and getting declined due to information that is reflecting on your credit profile, which may even be outdated or incorrect, will surely discourage you. Whereas you could have requested for your free credit report prior to applying for credit and should there have been any discrepancies, you have been afforded the right to dispute the information at no cost to you as the consumer. Once you have logged your dispute with the credit bureau, they will provide you with a dispute reference number and you will give the credit bureau 20 working days to resolve your matter. Should you not be satisfied with the outcome from the credit bureau, or you have not received feedback within the 20 working days, then you may approach the Credit Ombud for disputes against non-bank members, to further assist you.
More free assistance If you are a consumer or business that has been negatively impacted by credit bureau information or when a consumer has a dispute against a non-bank credit provider who is a subscribing member of the Credit Ombud - you can make use of this service for free. When a consumer has logged their dispute with a credit provider or with the credit bureau and afforded the credit bureau and credit provider 20 working days in which to investigate their dispute and may not be happy with the outcome from them, they can approach the Credit Ombud for further assistance.
Free credit report Buying property is a massive financial obligation, so getting your finances in order is key. One of the free services you can use to help is a free credit report. Section 72 of the NCA states that the consumer has the right to receive a free credit report once annually from every registered credit bureau upon request.
