Success in life greatly depends on successful
relationships
Propbond’s Bi-Weekly Repayment Strategy shows
you how much money you will save by splitting your monthly
repayment and paying that amount every 2 weeks. By making
additional payments are applied to your outstanding principal,
you can save thousands of Rands over the life of a loan.
Many homeowners are not aware how much money can
be actually saved in interest by shortening the life of a bond.
In many cases you are paying more than twice the amount of the
original loan, in interest alone – and you aren’t even aware
of it……take a look at the example…..
For example, let us take the case of a R370,000
loan at 14% interest with a life of 20 years. The monthly payment would
be R4,601-03.
-
The total repayment is R1,104,246-6.
After subtracting the R370,000
principal amount that the borrower received, there is a
total interest charge of R734,246.63
-
Read on….This is over three
quarters of a million rand in interest alone,
which the homeowner pays to the bank.

A 1% drop in
interest rates reduces the bond term by over 4½
years if the installment is maintained at the original
level. Even if you are already halfway through your bond
term when the rate decreases, by maintaining your payments
at the same level you will reduce your bond term by
approximately 1 year.
-
Do not allow the bank to add on costs: Most
of us would not be concerned about a monthly fee of R5
added to our bond. After all, it works out to a total of R1,200
over 20 years. However, because of the interest factor, this
small extra cost will add 2 months onto the bond term, that’s
over R8,600 that you will still
have to pay at a time when your bond should be settled. That
is why it is important to always pay a little extra on your
bond every month.

Buy well within your means – quick
calculation how to qualify:
-
Total joint
income X.3 ÷ 14.5 X 1000 = Amount of bond you qualify
for
-
Calculate the maximum house price you
can afford, then deduct 10% from this amount, this
ensures that you can cater for unexpected increases in
interest rates. Eg. If you can afford to buy a house
priced at R300,000, not buy for more than R270,000 –
pay installments based on the higher amount .by doing
this you are repaying extra capital from the first
payment
-
Use our methods and combinations, by
applying these methods you will also create some other
significant advantages for yourself.
-
You will build up a reserve of funds in the
bond account which you can access as an emergency
-
If interest rates increase, the fact that
you have paid in advance to your bond will mean the you can
ask the bank to reduce your installment
-
You can utilise the surplus funds to buy
things which you would otherwise need to buy using
installment sale or credit card debt, thereby gaining the
benefit of the lower interest rate on the bond.
-
We are showing you how to manage your money
in a more efficient manner, your bond can be settled years
before it is due, resulting in thousands of Rands saved.
