A recent court ruling has clarified an important question for both landlords and tenants: 𝐃𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐮𝐦𝐞𝐫 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐀𝐜𝐭 (𝐂𝐏𝐀) 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐥𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐚𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬?🏡

In the case of Els v Venter, the Supreme Court of Appeal confirmed that the CPA does not automatically apply to all residential leases. It only applies in certain situations where the landlord is renting out property in the “𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐛𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬.”

"The whole world is a series of miracles, but we're so used to them we call them ordinary things." – Hans Christian Andersen

Sometimes the most extraordinary moments are hidden within our everyday lives — a sunrise, a kind word, the laughter of a child, or the comfort of coming home.

When we pause to appreciate the little things, we often discover that what seems ordinary is actually quite remarkable.

Take a moment today to notice the miracles around you.💛💫

Instead of buying in the area they live, many Millennials and Gen X buyers are choosing to rent where they want to live, while purchasing investment properties in more affordable areas.

This strategy allows them to enjoy lifestyle flexibility while building wealth through rental income and long-term capital growth.

Driven by rising property prices, changing lifestyles, and stronger buy-to-let opportunities, rentvesting is becoming a growing trend in today’s property market.

KEY HANDOVER DAY!!!

More Than Just Receiving a Set of Keys

For most buyers, key handover day is one of the most exciting days of their lives.

After weeks, and sometimes months, of searching for the right property, securing finance, signing documents, and waiting for registration, the moment finally arrives when they can unlock the front door of their new home.

For some, it is their very first home. For others, it marks the beginning of a new chapter after a significant life change. Whatever their circumstances, it is the start of a new journey, new memories, and a new season in their lives.

As estate agents, we have the privilege of being part of this important milestone. Yet, I often cringe when I hear stories of agents simply leaving the keys at their office for buyers to collect and then sending them off to find their own way.

Key handover day should never be treated as a routine administrative task.

This is the moment when buyers are filled with anticipation and excitement. It is also the perfect opportunity to walk through the property together, explain how certain features work, answer questions, and ensure that everything is in order.

Often there are small matters that need attention. A garage door remote may need explaining. An alarm system may require a demonstration. The buyer may have questions about appliances, irrigation systems, or other features of the home. Sometimes there are items that the buyer expected to remain in the property, and these can be clarified immediately before misunderstandings arise.

Key handover day is equally important for the seller. It provides closure and peace of mind, knowing that the property has been handed over properly and that both parties are satisfied.

For me, this day represents the final step in delivering excellent service. It is the culmination of months of work, negotiations, and communication. More importantly, it is an opportunity to leave a lasting impression and strengthen the relationship with both buyer and seller.

A memorable key handover does not require grand gestures. It simply requires presence, professionalism, and genuine care.

My plea to fellow estate agents is this: make key handover day special. Be there. Celebrate with your clients. Walk them through their new home. Help them begin this exciting chapter with confidence and excitement.

Because at the end of the day, we are not simply handing over keys.

We are opening the door to someone's future. If you are thinking of buying or selling, let us make your key handover day a day that you will always remember.
