DESIGN SMALLER GARDENS

4. interest rate has fallen a whopping six percentage points
from 15,5% to 9,5% as a result, many people have been
too busy coping with the recession and its aftermath to
fully grasp the real estate opportunities inherent in this
situation.
However, it’s time to do so now.
To start with, the interest rate decline translates into a
saving, for existing homeowners, of more than R400 a
month per R100 000 borrowed. And if you put this
saving, or even some of it, straight back into your bond
account, you will cut several years off your home loan
term and save yourself many thousands of rand in
interest.

Many South Africans today have moved from the
traditional suburban home with large gardens, into much
smaller properties such as townhouse or cluster-type
complexes for safety and security reasons. As a result
many residential gardens are a lot smaller and as such,
much easier to design and maintain. Which is probably
just as well, as in the fast paced lifestyle of today, most
of us do not have the time, inclination or finances to
undertake the maintenance that the traditional large
gardens would need.
