PROPERTY:ONLY 3%GROWTH EXPECTED INNEXT FIVE YEARS
Rentingabetter short term investment
DALEEN FOUCH
The profitability of property as a
short term investment has de-
clined according to property
economist, Erwin Rhode.
Rhode says his most recent find-
ings suggest that short term invest-
ment in property will not produce
spectacular capital growth, adding
that renting a property may, in the
short term, save the consumermon-
ey.
Rhodeestimates thatover thenext
fiveyears, only 3%growthcanbeex-
pected for property investment. He
says this, coupled with inflation at
6%, will produce stunted short term
growth.
In a case study, Rhode looked at
threescenariosto findoutwhichsce-
nario would be the most profitable
in the short term. In the first scenar-
io a property is bought with cash, in
the second, the property is being
rented and in the third scenario the
propertyisboughtwitha100%bond.
He says the first two scenarios had
the best results. He concludes that
the only way a short term invest-
ment in property is profitable, is if
it is bought in cash.
The reasons for the stunted short
termgrowth, according toRhode, in-
cludes the fact that bankshave strict
lendingcriteriaanddonotgive100%
loans for property worth more than
R600 000. A second reason is the ex-
treme financial pressure under
which consumers find themselves.
But local estate agent and princi-
pal of Helderberg RE/MAX, Lee Sie-
bert, argues that for the majority of
potential home owners, property is
a long term investment. She agrees
that for the short term investor, buy-
ing property in cash is the best op-
tion, but adds that theaveragebuyer
is looking for a long term invest-
ment. Siebert says before the imple-
mentationof theNationalCreditAct
in 2007, it was easier for the consum-
er to get their bond approved. She
says now, people, especially first
time buyers, seem to move away
from borrowing money from the
bank and instead approach family
members for financing
Carl Nagel, residential teamman-
ager at RoseMcFall Properties, says
because the supply of property is
very limited in Somerset West, he
would recommend that consumers
rather look at buying a property in-
stead of renting. Property has al-
ways been a good investment.
He says renting a property in Hel-
derberg especially, has become very
expensive.

Solemandatehelpsyou
to sell at abetterprice
So why would you, as a seller, entrust
the selling of your property to one es-
tate agency on solemandate?Would it
notmake sense to list on an openman-
date,wheremanycompaniescanbring
buyers to your listing?
A seller may be thinking
that, inorder toget themax-
imum exposure to themost
buyers, it is best to list with
as many companies as pos-
sible. It might sound like a
logical conclusion but the
reasoning is faulty, and the
conclusion is wrong. Allow
me to explain.
There is only one condi-
tion under which a buyer
will pay theirmaximumfor
a property and this is
when theyhave to compete
for it against other buyers.
Inordertoachievethisbuy-
er competition it is important for a seller
to ensure that themarketingof their prop-
erty attracts the right buyers to their list-
ing.
Therightbuyerisabuyerwhois look-
ing in the correct price range, has require-
ments that are met by the listing, and has
the financial ability to purchase the prop-
erty.
So where do we find such buyers? Buy-
ers do not belong to estate agencies. There
is only one pool of buyers out there and
they search for property in a number of
ways: print marketing, Internet and web-
site marketing, video, showhouses, and
boards, to name but a few. None of these
methods can be ignored. The better the
marketing, the more of the right buyers
will be attracted.
Thereality is that thismarketingcomes
at a significant cost to the estate agent. It
is simply impossible for an agent to com-
mit the resources required toattract these
buyers to a listing if they do not have the
security of a sole mandate.
On an open mandate the best that an
agent could do would be
somebasicwebsitemarket-
ing, the odd print advert, a
board, and showhouses.
This marketing is weak. Is
it not part of a specially de-
signed marketing plan tai-
lored to attract the right
buyers. And whilst it may
attract some buyers, it will
certainly not attract
enough to create strong
buyer competition.
The other problem with
open or joint mandates is
that the agents involved
will compete to get your
propertysoldforanyprice,
not the best price. If they
get an offer they will urge you to accept
it, not because its the best offer out there,
but because if you accept another offer
fromanotheragenttheywillearnnothing.
Does it reallymake sense to select a sell-
ing strategy that doesnt allow the estate
agent to commit the resources required to
attract the right buyers and create buyer
competition? It makes even less sense to
put agents in a position where their moti-
vation is to sell your home at any price so
that they earn a fee, rather than the best
price.
On the other hand a sole mandate with
an estate agency that commits, inwriting,
to a professional marketing plan and in-
vests their resources inattracting thebest
buyers makes perfect sense. It costs you
no more. All thats required is commit-
ment.Committoasolemandatewithapro-
fessional estate agency and sell for more.

FIREBLADE SP: EXTRACTING THE VERY BEST FROMEVERY RIDER
Honda launchesCBR1000RRSP
QUICKPIC
For 21 years Honda has pursued
a concept of TotalControlwith
theFireblade,afterrewritingthe
rulebook in 1992 with the origi-
nal CBR900RR.
Over the last decade the
CBR1000RR has developed into per-
haps themost balancedSuperSport
machine available, combining ex-
ceptional performance and han-
dling with a satisfying ability to ex-
tract the verybest fromevery rider.
Victories in theWorldSuperBike
(WSBK) championship and all-con-
quering success at the Isle of Man
TT, with average lap speeds of
130 mph plus over 37,73 miles over
the mountain course, is testament
totheCBR1000RRsinnatecapacity.
The open-class CBR has built a
loyal armyof fans around theworld
over two decades especially with
over 200 000 sold, throughout Eu-
rope. And in response to demand
fromhard-core performance enthu-
siasts, Honda for the very first time
in 2014 is producing theCBR1000RR
Fireblade SP. A track-focused, yet
fully road legal, limited edition
Sport Production version of the
standard bike that not only looks
special it is special.
In Japanese to give something
edge is to add polish. And for the
dedicated track day goer thats ex-
actly what the CBR1000RR Fireb-
lade SP has been given: Total Con-
trol with an extra edge.
The chassis wears circuit-ready
front and rear hlins suspension
plus Brembo four-piston mono
blockcalipers,with framerevisions
and new top and bottom yokes to
suit. Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP
tyres are the finishing touch.
The 999.8cc inline four-cylinder
engine gets the same updated cylin-
der head as the standard 2014
CBR1000RR Fireblade, with im-
proved inlet/exhaust gas flow and
combustion efficiency, and an extra
2 kW peak power boost. However
theSPfeatures factory-matchedpis-
tons and con-rods, to ensure opti-
mum internal balance.
As a track-focused machine
theresnoprovisionforapillionand
a sleek single-seat unit saves
weight.FurthermarkingtheSPver-
sion out from standard is its own
unique Tricolour paint white and
two-tone blue, with a central red
stripe and trademark Honda gold
wheels.
At 35 mm (from 38 mm) the ex-
haust pipe diameters are smaller,
increasing torque and a new verti-
cal connecting pipe balances pres-
sure between cylinders two and
three. Peak power of 133 kW up
2 kW arrives at 12 250rpm; torque
is improved in the 4-6 000 rpm area,
peaking with 114 Nm delivered at
10 500 rpm.
The CBR1000RR SPs 999.8cc, 16-
valve inline four-cylinder engine
has the same cylinder head updates
as the standard machine. The inlet
and exhaust ports have been re-
shaped and polished with the com-
bustion chambers gas-flowed to
improve efficiency.
The CBR1000RR SP uses a new
wavedesign ignitionkey; it offers
improved security and its compact
size greatly reduces the chance of
breakage. Also new is the fuel tank
cap it uses an improved breather
design for better venting.
Instrumentation is a multi-func-
tion LCD with a cockpit display
dominated by the digital bar-type
linear tachometer that scrolls left to
right as engine speed increases.
Beneath this are themainnumer-
ical readouts: gear position, coolant
temperature, speedometer, clock/
lap time, trip/fuel efficiency/fuel
consumption and odometer/nu-
merical tachometer. At the bottom
of the display are lights for head-
light highbeam,neutral and indica-
tors.
Clear and easy to read in all light
conditions, the tachometer has four
display modes: Conventional,
which uses black LCD segments to
show current rpm; Reverse, which
employs black LCD segments to
show remaining rpm. PeakHold in-
dicatesrpmintheconventionalway
and also leaves a tell-tale segment
showing the peak rpm achieved
while Single Segment uses a single
block to show current engine speed.
In addition the odometer may be
switched to display engine rpm nu-
merically.
The lap timer features four
modes. The display can also show
fuel consumption, average fuel effi-
ciency, distance travelled and total
elapsed time.Toassistdebriefingaf-
ter a session, lap-time recall mode
shows the fastest lap time and the
lap on which it was set.
Toensuregearshiftingat theopti-
mum engine rpm, the 5-level shift
indicator display uses highly visi-
ble white LEDs, adjustable for
brightness. They illuminate se-
quentially as engine rpm rises, fi-
nally blinking at a chosen pre-set
rpm (default is 13 000 rpm but this
can be set between 4 000 rpm and
13 000 rpm). The interval between
sequential illumination can also be
set at 0,200 or 400 rpm.
