Be savvy

I

’m all for getting advice on how to do things better or quicker, especially if it means saving money. I recently picked up some tips from ooba on how to reduce the interest on monthly bond payments. On the back of the recent interest rate hike, this is useful information.

1

Pay it forward: make your salary work as hard as possible. After household expenses, put any unused money into your home loan.

2

Early bird: try to make bond payments as early in the month as possible. Every day of interest saved helps you pay it off faster.

3

Get an access bond: this allows you to deposit extra money into your bond and still have access to it for emergencies.

4 5

Negotiate your way: if you’ve paid consistently, approach your bank to negotiate for a better interest rate.

Calculate it: as interest is calculated daily, make use of a bond calculator to assess how much you need to reduce your total repayment amount.

he Pretoria Youth Theatre, now 26 years in the running, is bringing the classic Red Riding Hood story to town. Directed and choreographed by Clive Martin and Kerry-Anne Beldon, this show is guaranteed to be a family favourite.

R

ademeyers restaurant, nestled in the picturesque Moreleta Kloof Nature Reserve, offers a relaxing location to enjoy a meal. The restaurant is located in an olden-day farmhouse where diners are surrounded by the African bush, wildlife, and indigenous fauna and flora.

As you enter Rademeyers, the long passageway runs between dining areas on either side of it. At the top of the passage is an exit to the veranda section with a gorgeous view of the natural surroundings, wildlife and skyline of the reserve. It’s the perfect spot for catching a glimpse of game such as zebras, springbok or antelope.

Whether you choose to sit in the outside patio area, the inside dining areas, garden area or sports bar, this restaurant is a peaceful retreat away from the fast pace of everyday life. The bar, located in a separate building around the corner, offers a welcome respite after a long day where you can sip on a sundowner and admire the autographed sports paraphernalia on the walls.

The indoor dining areas with antiquestyle wooden floors and furniture, colourful paintings and velvet curtains provide a homely feel as if you may be sitting in a classic family dining room.

The menu includes a variety of traditional South African dishes and the revival of some old Afrikaans recipe favourites, served with a modern twist. Try the crumbed jalapeno poppers stuffed with cream cheese, cheddar and bacon or the tricoloured Caprese salad with mozerella, tomato, avocado and basil pesto for starters.

For mains have the tender lamb shank, slow braised in red wine, tomato, onion, rosemary and thyme, or the fried calamari served with tartar sauce. Wrap up your meal with malva pudding served with home-made custard or peppermint crisp tart.

The natural open space setting of Rademeyers provides a peaceful retreat to enjoy the beauty of Africa.

This restaurant is a delightful escape for an enjoyable family breakfast or lunch, drinks with friends, or a romantic wedding.

Coffee-scholar Taking some classes at Academy of Coffee WORDS: RITA-MARI LUDIKE IMAGES: SUPPLIED & ISTOCK

C

offee enthusiasts in Pretoria, class has started and you better not be late. Three great friends and coffeeholics, Derek “The Dean” Gardiner, Tim “The Prof” Vieyra and Flip “Number4” van der Merwe, are the brains behind Academy of Coffee.

Derek and Tim, both professionals from Cape Town, and Flip, Pretorian at heart and rugby player currently living in France, combined their various business backgrounds and views to bring you their passion project. The Academy of Coffee is enthusiastic not only about coffee, but also about spreading knowledge and uplifting people through coffee.

Q: Tell us about your roasts and what makes them special?

A: At the academy we currently serve The Academy of Coffee Blend, a smooth, delicious and creamy coffee, and The Number 4 blend, a more robust coffee, guaranteed to give you a kick yet impress the biggest of coffee snobs. The exact blend is a secret for now but you are welcome to find out during a Coffee101 session. What makes our roasts special is that they are all from our own continent and are Fair Trade certified and sourced. We are also proud to be in association with the Rainforest Alliance, which means our coffee is grown and harvested using environmentally and socially responsible practices.

Q: What would you recommend to an Academy first-timer?

A: Definitely our house favourite, the Cortado, and on a warmer day the iced coffee is a winner.

Q: Why did Academy of Coffee choose Pretoria to expand in?

A: The opportunity to have our name associated with the Cowhouse Market was too good to pass.

It is definitely the new cool place in Pretoria. We also love the growing coffee enthusiasm in Pretoria and surrounds. We are also lucky to have the best team in Pretoria – anyone who wants to see passion at work, should go visit Reinhardt and Sello at the Cowhouse over the weekend.

Q: How does Academy of Coffee live up to it’s name in terms of sharing skills and knowledge?

A: All of us at the academy value education – we see education as the root of upliftment. We currently run the book exchange and Coffee101 in our stores as small ways of spreading wisdom and love for coffee.

Q: Any exciting future plans or events we can keep our eyes peeled for?

A: Expansion is our main aim at the moment. We’re planning to open up another campus or two in the near future as the demand grows.

Howlin’ at you Bobbejaan brings you a new alternative music experience WORDS: RITA-MARI LUDIKE

IMAGES: ARTHUR BOY & HENRY ENGELBRECHT

M

usic aficionados all over Pretoria have seen all their beloved hangout spots close and change one by one until there wasn’t much rock-’n’-roll happening in the area. Waiting around for somebody to revive the scene to the good old days of Nile Crocodile wasn’t an option for four musicians and entrepreneurs – Vincent “Ziggy” Kruger, Warren Lloyd Frost, Finn MacKinnon and Brendon Daniel Levendig.

They took their inspiration from various places like the music scene in Washington DC in the ’80s where musicians took it upon themselves to get their music out to the public.

Vincent, Warren, Finn and Brendan have made it happen by any means possible – for more than a year they’ve worked on making sure that the music scene in Pretoria is flourishing. Since September 2014 there’s been a storm brewing. It’s called Bobbejaan.

All in one

Not only does Bobbejaan Productions promise to provide local patrons of the arts with great events, like the recent party titled Speed with Réunion Island band Kilkil, it also gives upand-coming musicians a much-needed foot in the door. With collaboration and an immense love for music at the very heart of Bobbejaan’s vision, the guys manage and help various great South African bands under the label Bobbejaan Records. The label’s vision is to be a one-stop label where musicians can be nurtured from the point of inception to the point of exhibition.

t’s safe to say that, by and large, interior design has been characterised by modern minimalism over the last couple of years. While this will likely not change radically any time soon, we’re seeing some designers playing with the idea of what constitutes good taste by incorporating classical references into their products.

Located in the heart of Pretoria at the historical Belgrave Hotel is Red Right Hand, an exhibition space created

by Bobbejaan Productions as a place where people can attend most of its events. The Red Right Hand has been open since June last year. Set up to be

By drawing on Greek and Roman design through elements like columns, marble and statuary, they’re able to give their products a sense of history while still ensuring that they’re contemporary to fit in with other modern decor.

IMAGE: DOKTER AND MISSES X RONEL JORDAAN (DAVID ROSS)

Sometimes this classical inspiration draws on silhouettes and forms, transposing them across objects to give a sense of the unexpected. Marie Michielssen vases for Serax, for example, look like heirloom pieces of silver, but are actually paper slipcovers for ordinary jars. This contrast between the precious and the everyday is one way of elevating the trend from the kitsch, and ensuring that it’s not taking itself too seriously. Some designers, on the other hand, take classical materials as inspiration for contemporary pieces.

Upcoming events

On 8 April you can rock out to The Tazers at the EP launch for their new album Time Machine at Red Right Hand. The line-up includes CUSP, Ruff Majik, The Tazers and the Hellcats. To stay updated on upcoming events visit the Bobbejaan Productions website and keep an eye on its Facebook page. Also tune in to its show, Sangoma Sessions, on The Grind Radio, on Wednesdays from 7pm.

Red Right Hand

New classics WORDS: CHRIS REID

nomadic, Red Right Hand is currently stationed at the Belgrave. However, events pop up all over Pretoria.

Ronel Jordaan, for exampale, features upholstery that mimics the look of marble, but is juxtaposed with a construction that’s emphatically modern.

This cut-and-paste approach to history is a contemporary way of adding history to design without necessarily raising the price tag.

While it can seem a little over the top to some, this hearkening back to classical design is a way of locating ourselves within a broader historical context. And that’s something that everyone can see the appeal of – curlicues and all.

adison – The Heart of New York, was founded

by Shane and Pauline McEvoy in December 2009. A new shop recently opened its doors in Woodlands Boulevard. Madison’s aim is to provide shoes to the young, modern and sophisticated woman.

Q: How did your business start?

A: After falling in love with the city of New York in 2006 we started to dream about bringing New York fashion to South Africa. After three years of pondering and dreaming we packed in our permanent jobs, threw caution to the wind and Madison – The Heart of New York was born.

Q: Why did you choose this area to set up shop?

A: Pretoria East and of course Woodlands Boulevard, being the aspirational area that it is, was the perfect area to launch Madison – The Heart of New York into the Pretoria area as a whole. With the boutique feel of Woodlands Boulevard and with

easy access to the amazing variety of stores, it was the perfect fit.

Q: How did you find your premises?

A: We had a store in Canal Walk in Cape Town and Woodlands Boulevard was recommended as part of the Hyprop Investments Group portfolio. We contacted the mall and the store we are currently in was offered.

Q: Why are the premises ideally suited to your business?

A: The store location in the mall and size was perfect to launch our first Pretoria store.

Q: Who are your neighbours?

A: Our neighbours are Green Cross Shoes and Sissy Boy Jeans.

Q: What are the shop rental prices like in this area?

A: The shop rentals are quite reasonable.

Q: What is your shop footprint?

A: Between 50 and 100 people visit our shop daily, depending on the day of the month.

Q: Do you have any expansion plans?

A: We have a pop-up store in Clearwater Mall and have gone permanent in East Rand Mall. We are in the process of finalising more stores as we speak.

Q: Do you operate online as well?

A: Yes, our online retail stores can be accessed through our website. We deliver nationally.

Q: What’s your most popular item?

A: Our sexy court shoes are a stable bestseller all year round. The Chantelle courts are also a bestseller, and the Madison heeled sandals are a hot item on most buyers’ shopping lists.

or most people, buying a home means taking out a home loan.

Very few individuals are wealthy enough to just hand over the cash for property that costs hundreds of thousands or even millions of rand.

Unfortunately, though, very few of us consider the full implications of what it means to take out a 20-year mortgage. We are just so relieved to get the finance that we simply set up the minimum payments and let them roll out of our bank accounts every month.

However, it is important to appreciate just what we are committing to.

Consider that if you took out a 20-year bond on a R2m home at an interest rate of 9,75%, your monthly repayments would be R18,970. Over the lifetime of the loan that means you would pay a total of R4,566,503, of which R2,566,503 is interest.

Anyone taking out a home loan should therefore think seriously about how they can pay it off quicker, because it will ultimately save them large amounts of money. Using the above example, if you paid just R3,000 extra per month, you could pay off the loan six years earlier, and save almost R900,000 in interest.

Of course finding that extra money is not a simple matter, but here are four easy tips for paying off your home loan quicker:

1

Whenever you receive a salary increase, up your bond repayment by the same percentage. That way you are still committing the same percentage of your income to paying off the loan, but you are putting in bigger amounts.

2

Pay part of any bonus, tax refund or cash windfall into your bond. This should at least be the same percentage of whatever portion of your salary goes into the monthly repayments.

3

When the banks lower their interest rates, don’t lower your repayments. The extra amounts may seem small, but over the long run they can make a big difference.

4

After every five years, apply for a new loan, and not just at your own bank. You will have to go through all the admin and paperwork again, and there may be cancellation and penalty fees applied, but because the loan amount will be smaller and the loan period shorter, you are likely to get a better interest rate, and that will make it worth the trouble.

ewlands, an established family suburb centrally located next to the N1 highway, south-east of Pretoria city, provides a pleasant lifestyle for its friendly residents with great schools, entertainment and medical facilities. The suburb falls between Garsfontein Road in the north, Anthony Street in the south, Matroosberg Road to the west and Corobay Avenue to the east, with streets meandering uphill and downhill, shaded by large trees.

Properties in the area include large houses, modern apartments, office parks and retirement villages, so you don’t need to move far to scale up or down or travel to work. The Lynnwood Sector 3 Community Policing Forum assists with crime prevention and liaises closely with SAPS Brooklyn, arranging patrols, creating close communication among neighbours and educating residents on emergencies.

Newlands is located near premiere shopping facilities like Menlyn Park, Newlands, Castle Walk, and The Club shopping centres with a number of car dealerships such as McCarthy Volkswagen Menlyn and

Hyundai Menlyn close by. The suburb is also situated near Menlyn Maine, Africa’s first green city, which aims to be the new city centre.

There are a number of great restaurants near Newlands including Ocean Basket, Good Times Cafe, Life Grand Cafe and Protea Hotel Fire and Ice Restaurant, as well as other types of entertainment like movie theatres, paintball, pilates, karate and beauty salons.

Among the top schools in the area are Pro Arte Alphen Park, Hatfield Christian School, The Glen High School and Pipsqueaks Pre-primêre Skool.

Medical professionals at Cure Day Clinics Erasmuskloof, a health-care facility for specialised day surgery, and Mediclinic Kloof, a private hospital, will keep you in good health delivering quality health assistance.

Newlands has quality schools within a 2km radius, a variety of shopping malls where you can find everything from a pin to a racing car, and retirement villages, so grandparents can be close to their grandchildren STELLA LAMPRECHT, RESIDENT OF NEWLANDS FOR 30 YEARS

Newlands provides a relaxed lifestyle among beautiful scenery and is a hub for excellent shopping, restaurant, social, school and health-care facilities.

The suburb’s committed residents are actively involved in ensuring the area remains a peaceful, social and safe environment to set down roots.

BEST IN FOOD: • Ocean Basket Newlands • Good Times Cafe • Protea Hotel Fire and Ice Restaurant • Good Stuff Cafe

Agent commentary Q: How has Newlands changed over the past five years?

A: Over the past five years, Newlands has seen a dramatic change in population demographics. Five years ago, white South Africans made up 90% of the residents and the remaining 10% of the population group was made up of black, Indian, Asian and coloured South Africans. Although there is still a large percentage of white South Africans residing in Newlands today, the percentage of black South Africans has definitely increased, to the point where one might speculate that demographics at this point may be closer to 40% white South Africans, 35% black, and 15% Indian, Asian and coloured South Africans.

Q: What attracts buyers to this area?

A: Situated up on a hill overlooking a beautiful green city, Newlands is the ideal upmarket residential area for the young professional, offering sectional-title property as well as freehold properties.

Its boomed-off security is one reason for its popularity as well as its convenient location close to Menlyn with quick access to surrounding areas and highways.

The area is also ideal for investors who earn a good return on rental properties. There’s a choice of schools such as Hatfield Christian School, The Glen High School and Pro Arte Alphen Park, and varied shopping facilities at Newlands, Menlyn Motor City and Paragon Shopping Centres.

Q: Who is buying property in the area and what types of properties are available?

A: In the upmarket suburb of Newlands property types consist mainly of houses and duets. There are 10 sectionaltitle complexes of which three are stacked simplexes and three full-title complexes, as well as two retirement villages.

It is mostly younger people in the plus/minus 30-year age group who are currently buying properties in Newlands. This is due to the fact that not only do they have easy access to all amenities, such as shopping malls, excellent schools, churches and easy access to the N1, but also because of the very active neighbourhood watch.

Urban Development Zone

T

he UDZ tax incentive is a scheme that was announced in 2003 to promote investment by the private sector and encourage investment within certain demarcated urban areas. It allows investors who purchase apartments to let the ability to claim a depreciation allowance or capital deduction.

On new developments, the purchaser is allowed to write off 55% of the cost (VAT inclusive purchase price) of their investment over an 11-year period, with 20% of that deductible amount being written off in year 1, and the balance spread evenly over the following 10 years.

According to David Sedgwick, development specialist, Horizon Capital Residential, the major benefit to investors is that the large capital deduction is not automatically ring-fenced and creates a substantial tax-loss situation for the investor. This tax loss is allowed to be offset against other taxable income (for example, a salary or other trade income) which can result in an attractive situation where the investor initially receives PAYE/ tax back upon filing their tax return.

This is useful to fund any negative cash flow requirement during the first few years of a buy-to-let property.

KNOW MORE: • Property must be new, purchased from a developer, and utilised for the investor’s trade (renting out).

• Trade must commence by 31 March 2020.

n 2015, total transaction activity within the commercial property space came in at R118,5bn, an impressive 12,8% increase from 2014, according to Lightstone.

Ndibu Motaung, head: commercial property, Lightstone, highlights transactions by a private buyer in KwaZulu-Natal for potential development opportunities in Ezakheni C and Umlazi A, totalling over R940m in value, as being a key contributor to this rapid increase. Despite this being

the largest single transaction, there were a few notable deals by prominent funds, including Investec Property Fund’s acquisition of Zenprop’s portfolio (R7,1bn in value) and Liberty’s 25%-acquisition of Melrose Arch.

When looking at transactions by geographical spread, Gauteng’s three biggest metropolitan municipalities accounted for 57,4% of the trans­ac­ tion values and, collectively, were the largest contributors to the overall sales activity in 2015.

he total value of sales in the SA housing market has been steadily increasing, with an 8,3% increase in the value of residentialproperty transactions from 2014 to 2105. This is despite gross domestic product growth remaining very low, new-vehicle sales plummeting, and an increasingly aggressive upward interest-rate cycle. Fifty percent of residential properties are located in the Western Cape and Gauteng, accounting for more than two-thirds of the total residential-market value.

Sandton and Parkmore in Joburg, Green Point and Rondebosch in Cape Town, and Rua Vista and Monument Park in Tshwane – as well as La Lucia and Mount Edgecombe in

eThekwini in KwaZulu-Natal – were among the high-value suburbs with strong capital growth last year.

“Although the money supply of assetbuying consumers is lessening, property investment remains a top priority for many South Africans, with the City of Cape Town witnessing spirited growth in the housing market over the last five years,” said Paul-Roux de Kock, analytics director, Lightstone, which provides information, valuations and market intelligence on all properties in SA. He was addressing this year’s annual Overview of the South African Property Industry conference that took place at Val de Vie Estate outside Paarl in the Western Cape.
