Quite often clients are looking for a specific property with the potential to re-vamp and/or alter to suite their lifestyle.
 
We will accompany a client to the proposed new property, evaluate the structure with them and discuss future alterations, extensions, and re-vamping with them.
 
It can be a very expensive exercise if one had to purchase a property only post transfer into ones name find out that the property has structural defects and/or the versioned alterations are not doable unless one was prepared to throw excessive amounts of money into the project.
 
Bear in mind when looking to purchase a property in the older established areas.
 
Depending on the heritage guidelines of a specific municipality, properties older than 50 or 60 years would fall into the ambient of the Heritage Laws. You would not be able to just go in and alter, change, add on or even demolish the particular property.
 
Resulting in what you would deem a “bargain” could become your worst nightmare.
 
What one may perceive as a waste of time and money could ultimately save you a lot of money!
 
Property costs a lot of money. A nominal fee of 0.5% (say the property is R 1 million - our fee would be R 5,000.00) of the total purchase price and get a proper structural and detailed doable report is entirely worth the money!
