Tot 8 000 kan huis verloor

Altesame 55 000 Suid-Afrikaanse huiseienaars ly aan verbandstres nadat die prima koers die afgelope twee jaar van 10,5% tot 15,5% geklim het.

Dié syfers blyk uit nuwe navorsing deur die Alliance Group.

Volgens mnr. Rael Levitt, uitvoerende hoof, beteken dit hulle is meer as een maand agterstallig met hul maandelikse verbandpaaiemente.

Hy sê 8 000 van die huiseienaars is drie maande agterstallig en loop die gevaar dat hulle hul huise gaan verloor.

Mnr. Gavin Opperman, Absa se uitvoerende groephoof vir gesekureerde lenings in die kleinhandelafdeling, het bevestig dat talle huiseienaars onder druk is nadat die rentekoersverhogings hulle onkant betrap het.

Hy sê veral diegene aan wie verbandlenings die afgelope 24 maande toegestaan is, sukkel.

Banke is egter nie ten gunste daarvan om beleggerswaarde te vernietig deur huise terug te neem nie en sal innoverend te werk gaan om die verbruiker eerder in sy huis te hou, sê hy.

Onder ’n verskeidenheid opsies is ’n vaste-koers-verband****rak vir ’n sekere tydperk of die verlenging van die termyn van die bestaande verbandlening. “Absa is nie ’n voorstander van die opsie dat verbruikers net die rente-gedeelte van hul verbandpaaiement vir ’n tydperk betaal nie. Ons moedig hulle aan om soveel moontlik van hul lening af te betaal, selfs al betaal hulle ’n kleiner paaiement,” sê hy.

Dit is hoekom dit so belangrik is dat verbruikers wat in ’n finansiële dilemma is, met hul finansieringsinstelling gaan praat. Verbruikers wat nie met hul bank praat nie en agterstallig raak, laat banke met geen ander keuse as om regstappe te doen nie, sê hy.

Wanneer dit by ernstige besluitneming kom, word elke verbruiker wat in die knyp is, op meriete beoordeel. Hy sê drie belangrike faktore wat in ag geneem word, is die verbruiker se inkomste en sy inkomste-vooruitsigte, sy lening-tot-waarde-verhouding en sy kredietrekord, wat alle ander skuld insluit.

Só sal ’n verbruiker wat agterstallig raak met sy maandelikse verbandpaaiement, maar net ’n 50%-verbandlening teenoor die waarde van die eiendom het, anders gehanteer word as een met ’n 100%-verbandlening wat agterstallig raak. Hy sê om te verseker dat voornemende huiskopers dit kan bekostig, staan Absa in dié stadium net ’n 80%-verbandlening toe vir ’n lening van meer as R4 miljoen en 90% vir minder as R4 miljoen.

Die voornemende koper moet dus ’n deposito hê. Dit help om die lening-tot-waarde-verhouding te verlaag, wat beteken daar is onmiddellik ekwiteit beskikbaar.

As daar geen ander uitweg is as om die huis terug te neem nie, sal Absa ’n ooreenkoms met die kliënt aangaan om dit te verkoop.

Indien die eiendom verkoop teen minder as wat die kliënt skuld, kan die uitstaande bedrag afbetaal word oor ’n tydperk, sê hy.

Absa se telefoonnommer vir kliënte wat in ’n skuldweb vasgevang is, is 0 0860 356 356.

Span die gordels styf! Ja, span! Nog meer! Hul verdiende loon om paleise te koop om die bure (Jones') te beindruk, en nie gedink het om hul begroting na te speur nie! :D
 
Your posts are becoming extremely annoying, repeating the same carp about the Jones'. Not everybody is able to buy everything in cash and therefore have to take on some debt to get a place to stay or a car to drive to work etc.
I agree with you about people buying a BMW when they can only afford a Citigolf, but what is the point of going on and on about that on a internet forum?
 
you know what... it pisses me off...

Why?

Because I bought a house last year and it cost a forutune. Yes it did but I am better for it because I don't have some Lebanese assf*ck landlord trying to ass-rape me for my money and claiming "imaginary damages" when the property was so poorly built. Neither do I have barbarians who slaughter chickens in the townhouse living above me.

The interest rate on the bond is not killing me at all. What is hurting my wallet is the fscking PETROL PRICE... If that improves I will be OK and be able to ride the storm out, otherwise, no more visiting friends and driving around for pleasure.
 
to 8 000 can house lost



alltogether 55 000 south - afrikaans homeowners suffers from verbandstres after the prime rate the past two years of 10,5% to 15,5% climbed have .



this digits blyk out new research by the alliance group.



according to mr . rael levitt, uitvoerende head , does this mean they/them/their is more than one month overdue with their monthly verbandpaaiemente.



he says 8 000 of the homeowners is three months overdue and walk/run the danger that they their houses goes lost .



mr . gavin opperman, absa's uitvoerende groephoof for gesekureerde loans in the kleinhandelafdeling, corroborated that many homeowners under print is after the rentekoersverhogings they/them/their onkant betrap have .



he says especially those to whom verbandlenings the past 24 months conceded , struggle .



banks is however not in favour about it at/to beleggerswaarde to destroy by houses back to does'nt take and will innoverend to works goes at/to the consumer rather in its house to keep , he said .



under a variety options is a vaste- rate -verband****rak for an certain period or/if the verlenging of the term of the existing verbandlening. “absa is not a forestander of the option that consumers just the interest - part of their verbandpaaiement for an period pay not . our encourage/brave they/them/their to at/to so much possible of their loan down to pay , even if pay they/them/their a smaller instalment ,” he said .



it is why it so is important that consumers that/what in a financial dilemma, with their finansieringsinstelling goes speak . consumers that/what not with their bench are not talking and overdue get/touch , allow banks with no other choice as at/to regstappe to are not doing , he said .



when it at serious descision-making come , (get) every consumer that/what in the pinch ,

You seem to have something of an infatuation with the Jonese's and keeping up with them. Wait dont tell me, your ex was a Jones and her family rejected you due to you being from the other side of the tracks!

My point is that people still remain stupid and are not able to learn from their mistakes, and even with the interest rates in an upward cycle for many months now, they still go ahead and purchase expensive houses / cars they cannot afford.

Then they come and complain about the hikes in my face. THAT is what's annoying in the first place.

So my seemingly annoying posts are only responses to those that annoy me in the first place by complaining about rising rates & costs when they very well could have prevented it. They made their own bed; now sleep in it.

No, the stupid South Africans are the ones that are infatuated by them; they see it as their main goal in life to impress others. I was just using it as an example.

The main Monday-Friday goal of most South Africans is to have enough money for the coming weekend & how to spend the money buying things to impress others.

That's it.
 
No, its not, its to have enough money for the coming weekend and how much alcohol that can buy (and if you're a guy on how good looking a girl it can pull) :p

In other words it's not killing you because you were sensible enough to leave some 'margin' in your budget to allow for possible increases in the interest rate, even if it would mean cutting back on some luxuries. Many people were too friggin dumb to do something that basic, and decided to buy properties at the absolute limit of what they could afford based only on the interest rate at the time. If a grown man/woman - an adult - is too stupid to think "but hey, what if prime goes up on my prime-linked bond", then sorry but they deserve to lose their house. You need that 'budget margin' anyway - e.g. for emergencies/unexpecteds.

That is not really fair comment.
My bond has increased substantially (as has everyones'). Where do you draw the line between "stupidity" and "victim"?
Another 1%, 2% 3%??

And that is before we factor in everything else.
I worked out my gross salary would need to increase by between 6 and 7K a month to cover the expenses that have increased over the last 18 months.
At this point it is a case of hanging on by the skin of my teeth - another 3% rate hike and it will be bad.

My point exactly.
And if they then come and moan, I have the right to moan back i.e. rip them.

What car do you have?
Do you have a large house?
What luxuries do you still enjoy?
