Will I get the same interest rates as if I applied through the bank directly ?

Yes, amongst other things, your credit profile, affordability, and loan to value ratio determine your interest rate on your home loan. All these details are captured into the lenders credit scoring models and your interest rate is calculated. Whether you apply through Mortgage Plus Bond Originators or through the bank directly, the same credit scoring model is used to determine the interest rate applicable to your home loan. However, our experienced home loan consultants are able to motivate further on your behalf.

Can I purchase a property in South Africa if I am a non-resident?

Non-residents may purchase property in South Africa but in terms of Exchange Control Regulation 3 1 (f) they may not be granted any financial assistance e.g. Bond. However, the South African Reserve bank will consider requests by Non-Residents for bond facilities not exceeding 100% of his/her borrowing base.

The ‘Borrowing Base” of a Non-Resident individual is the sum introduced into South Africa to fund the purchase of a property e.g
“A non-resident wishes to purchase a property in South Africa for R600,000.00. Provided R300 000.00 is introduced into South Africa to effect the purchase he / she would be able to apply to the South African Reserve bank for permission to avail himself of a bond of R300 000.00. In other words 50% mortgage loans are available to Non-Residents. However, it must also be borne in mind that the banks will only grant a bond of 50% of their valuation of the property, which may in some instances not equal 50% of the purchase price.

All requests of this nature must be routed through a commercial bank and not directly with the South African reserve bank.

Proof must be provided that the funds physically came into the country (which can be done by the Transferring / Conveyancing Attorney), so that when the property is sold, the Deposit plus profit can be released. The title deed will be endorsed “non-res”.

The Non-resident does not have to open a banking account in SA, although some banks insist, as he/she can transfer funds directly from his overseas account into his Mortgage Account. If an account is to be opened, especially if an access facility is required for the capital paid off, then the non-resident is required to obtain an original letter of credibility from his bankers.

As Exchange control is a complex subject, Non Residents are advised to consult with our Mortgage Plus Bond Originators property finance consultants on this issue.

If I am a South African Resident, working abroad, can I apply for bond finance to purchase a property in SA?

Yes, if you are a SA resident, working abroad, an 80% mortgage Bond can be obtained. Most banks will look at granting up to an 80% loan but each application will be looked at on individual merit. Some clients have been granted 100% finance but in exceptional circumstances.

You must only be living abroad temporarily and must have plans to return to South Africa. Moreover, an application to emigrate must not have been made, nor should you have surrendered your permanent residency status in South Africa. Please speak to one of our experienced Mortgage Plus Bond Originators property finance consultants to assist you in this regard.
