Just a little humour

A young executive is leaving the office late one evening when he finds the CEO standing in front of the shredder with a piece of paper in his hand.

“Listen,” says the CEO, “this is a very sensitive and important document here, and my secretary has gone for the night. Can you make this thing work for me?”

“Certainly,” the young executive says. He turns the machine on, inserts the paper and presses the start button.

“Excellent, excellent!” says the CEO as his paper disappears inside the machine. “I just need one copy.”

Things to Consider Before Accepting a 105% Home Loan

Many South Africans have to think twice before applying for a home loan because certain factors prevent them from buying a house.

Firstly, potential buyers do not have enough money to pay the fees associated with buying a house. Secondly, South Africans are not great at saving.

With the cost of living being at an all-time high, it is not surprising. To help fix this problem, banks like ABSA launched options that allow buyers to apply for a 105% home loan.

It might sound beneficial but there are a few things to consider before accepting it:

How does it work?
Buyers can apply for a 105% home loan, which will cover the cost of the house and the extra 5% can cover the extra fees like bond registration costs. The total amount is then worked into monthly bond instalments like a normal bond.

What are the benefits of a 105% home loan?
The goal of this option is to make it easier for younger buyers to buy their dream home and to enter the real estate market. With the current interest rate at 7%, young people are scrambling to buy a home. The 105% home loan option makes it possible for them to reap the rewards of the low-interest rate.

What are the risks of the 105% home loan?
Even though a 105% home loan seems like the obvious route for many people, there are a lot of things that potential buyers need to consider before accepting. Buyers are not only paying back 100% of the bond but an extra 5%. It might not sound like it is that much, but it will make a difference once they become homeowners.

A final word
A home loan is the same as any other debt that you incur. The sooner you pay off the interest, the better. An added 5% to your home loan also means added interest, not just added capital. You need to ask yourself whether you can afford it on top of the 100% home loan you already have to settle.

Just A little Humour!

A banker, an accountant and a real estate agent all get made redundant and decide to live under a bridge.

The banker finds a cardboard box and moves into it.

The accountant finds a cardboard box, puts it next to the banker and crawls into it.

The real estate agent finds a cardboard box and puts it on top of the other cardboard boxes.

Then she slaps a poster on it reading, “Brand new penthouse now available in a development for young professionals. Sole Mandate.”

Adding colour to your bedroom

While soothing neutral hues are the popular choice for bedrooms, sometimes these rooms need a dash of colour to update them and bring them to life. Here are some clever ways to do it.

Add scatter cushions
The easiest means of introducing colour is with scatter cushions. With minimal outlay, you can change the look to suit the season; bright summery colours for the warmer months and soft textures and rich tones for winter. A clever idea is to use one colour or pattern on the front and another on the back so you can change the look whenever you want.

Upholster the bed end
For those who love white and neutral rooms but just want to add some interest, upholster the bench at the end of the bed in a simple one-colour pattern. Then add a matching scatter cushion in the centre of the bed.

Create a feature wall
A striking way to introduce colour and pattern is with a wallpapered feature wall. Simple yet eye-catching.
