MORTGAGE BONDS from Mortgage Plus     (011)327-4489

There are so many types of mortgage bonds which are currently available that it can be an often confusing and intimidating task when wanting to take out a mortgage bond which will be most ideal for you. This is where Mortgage Plus can help. With their in-depth knowledge in the mortgage bonds available and what each option entails, this mortgage bond originator is able to guide the prospective of a mortgage bond to eventually decide upon the best option which will match their needs and requirements.

These numerous types of mortgage bonds which are available from the major banks in South Africa such as ABSA, Nedbank, FNB, and Standard Bank, include a few of the options as listed below:

First time buyers Home Loan: This is a special mortgage bond option in that it is ideal for those who have never owned a property or taken out a home loan. With this mortgage bond, the banks will lend you more than 100% of the property value, enabling you to include the transfer and registration costs into the mortgage bond; and hereby making it easier for you to enter into the property market. No deposit is required with this option.
(for the right purchaser) 

A Variable Home Loan: Given at the negotiated interest rate, this mortgage bond option is the traditional home loan optional. Home Loan rates are always negotiable, and are generally affected by the amount of the loan taken out. The smaller the loan, the less chance you have of getting below the prime lending rate. With this type of home loan, if the interest rates increases by 1 percent, your home loan rate will increase accordingly. If the interest rate drops, so will your home loan rate.

Fixed Home Loan Rate: With this type of home loan, your interest rate is fixed for a period of time; for one or two years on average. When considering this mortgage bond option do keep in mind that the interest will be slightly higher than the current loan rate. The beneficial advantage of this option is that it offers you protection from rising interest rates, so for that period of time you know what your bond repayments are. The only downside is that if the interest rates drop, your home loan rate will stay unchanged, resulting in you having to fork out more money at the end of the day.

Capped Home Loan Rate: With this type of Home Loan, you will never pay more than the capped rate, as your interest rate is capped at a maximum rate of interest for a period of time. And if the interest rates increase, you will never pay more than the capped rate you have negotiated. The outstanding pleasure which comes along with picking this option is that you will reap the benefits in the case that rates decrease.

Please do take note that this type of mortgage bond is not so readily available, and there is certain criteria required before your designated bank will approve your application.

Looking for the Best Mortgage

Shopping around for a home loan or mortgage will help you to get the best financing deal. A mortgage–whether it’s a home purchase, a refinancing, or a home equity loan–is a product, just like a car, so the price and terms may be negotiable.

You’ll want to compare all the costs involved in obtaining a mortgage. Shopping, comparing, and negotiating may save you thousands of rands.

Obtain Information From Several Lenders

Home loans are available from several commercial banks and mortgage companies. Different lenders may quote you different prices, so you should contact several lenders to make sure you’re getting the best price. You can also get a home loan through a mortgage broker.

Brokers arrange transactions rather than lending money directly; in other words, they find a lender for you. A broker’s access to several lenders can mean a wider selection of loan products and terms from which you can choose. Brokers will generally contact several lenders regarding your application.

 

Be sure to get information about mortgages from several lenders or your mortgage broker. Know how much deposit you can afford, and find out all the costs involved in the loan. Knowing just the amount of the monthly payment or the interest rate is not enough.


Ask for information about the same loan amount, loan term, and type of loan so that you can compare the information. The following information is important to get from each lender and broker:

Rates

  • Ask your mortgage broker for a list of its current mortgage interest rates and whether the rates being quoted are the lowest for that day or week.
  • Ask whether the rate is fixed or variable. Keep in mind that when interest rates for variable-rate loans go up, generally so does the monthly payment.

Fees

A home loan often involves many fees, such as initiation fees, registration fees, cancellation fees etc

Every broker should be able to give you an estimate of fees. Many of these fees are negotiable. Some fees are paid when you apply for a loan (such as initiation fees), and others are paid at closing.

In some cases, you can borrow the money needed to pay these fees, but doing so will increase your loan amount and total costs. “No cost” loans are sometimes available, but they usually involve higher rates.

  • Ask what each fee includes. Several items may be lumped into one fee.
  • Ask for an explanation of any fee you do not understand. Some common fees associated with a home loan closing are listed on the invoice.

Deposit and Mortgage Insurance

Some lenders require up to 20 percent of the home’s purchase price as a deposit. However, many lenders now offer loans that require less than 20 percent down–sometimes as little as 10 percent on conventional loans.

  • Ask about the lender’s requirements for a down payment, including what you need to do to verify that funds for your down payment are available.
  • Ask your lender about special programs it may offer

If Mortgage Insurance is required for your loan,

  • Ask what the total cost of the insurance will be.
  • Ask how much your monthly payment will be.
  • Ask how long you will be required to continue with the insurance
