Seminar Success

Category Property News

Helen Ward delivered a most instructive, well researched and highly informative presentation on Buying and Selling Property within the Plettenberg Bay area. A PERSONAL Comparative Market Analysis of their property was prepared for each attendee, for market and insurance purposes, essential information to all of us who live in areas ravaged by fire, subsidence and floods.

 

The Guide to Buying and Selling Property covered every aspect of the industry and was a revelation to many of us.  We were instructed, in depth, on -

 

  • The Establishment and History of the Industry and the representative bodies in the Industry
  • The Property Practitioners Bill
  • Verification of Agent
  • The necessary qualifications required of an Agent
  • Occupation Certificates, Building Plans, Property Transfer Procedures, Duties and Costs and Conveyancing.
  • We were supplied with graphs of the volume of Property Sales by Suburb in Plettenberg Bay 2013 to 2017;
  • A Price Range Summary of property Transfers in Plettenberg Bay during 2015 and 2016
  • First Quarter sales by Value 2014 to 2017
  • Affordability and Costs incurred when Buying a home in Plettenberg Bay and the cost of financing said property
  • Property Ownership
  • Marketing and Advertising by Helen Mellon
  • and a Comprehensive Information Pack detailing the Mandatory Disclosure by Seller and an Immovable Property Condition Report for personal use.

 

It was an extremely professional and thought- provoking presentation and I would urge Homeowners to attend any subsequent Seminars conducted by Helen Melon.

 

On a personal note, on behalf of the PlettAid Foundation/Hospice Plett, I would like to thank Helen Ward and Helen Melon Properties for their most generous financial contribution towards fuel for the Hospice vehicles over the last year and the raising of  public awareness of the organisation itself.   We are very grateful for their encouragement and support
