This very often includes a home move or a remodelling exercise of a present home!

 

The Dormehl Property Group website offers a wide selection of properties in various areas of South Africa with information and photographs as well as some video walk through to help you make your choice.

 

Should you wish to take the route of remodelling your existing home but find that finance is an issue, DPG mortgage originator partner – ooba has a team of highly trained professional consultants that would be able to assess whether you could qualify for that extra amount of finance that may be necessary to complete your plans. With interest rates still remaining at fairly low levels there has never been a better time to apply for the finance that could be the answer you require.

 

With a shortage of stock being reported and prices of property increasing the following comment by ooba CEO Mr Rhys Dyer at the end of November 2013 could be of interest to both buyers and sellers:-

 

“While the lending environment is improving, first time buyers and all buyers alike can benefit enormously from being pre-qualified for finance before putting in an offer on a property,” says Dyer. ooba’s expanded prequalification service, called oobaqualified provides buyers with a network of highly skilled pre-qualification experts located around the country who will assist buyers to access their credit report, assess their credit standing, them with a prequalified loan certificate. “Being prequalified allows buyers to shop in the right price bracket with the confidence that in all likelihood, their bond will be approved,” says Dyer. “It makes sense for any prospective home buyer to get oobaqualified before they start to look– and this is a free service.”
