Re financing:
Some banks classify a property of this size as a smallholding, and treat the loan applications like an
ordinary residential property, requiring a 10% deposit from the buyer. Other banks classify it as a
small farm and finance up to 60% of the purchase price, namely R1,020,000-00 in this case, which
means the Purchaser pays a deposit of 40% of the purchase price, which is R680,000-00. (Transfer
duty to SARS plus the conveyancing fees will be around R65,000. If you require bank financing, add
bond registration fees of about R40,000-00, so your transfer and bond registration expenses will
total R105,000-00)
Rawson’s in-house Finance Department will gladly do all the applications, and broker the best
possible financing deal for you.
