PAARL EASTDEVELOPMENT

Phase2 to start at StoneRiverValley

The construction of Phase 2 of the Stone

River Valley development in Paarl East is

due to start on 4 March and is scheduled

for completion in December 2013.

According to Imvusa Homes, developers of

the Stone River Valley development, Phase 1

of the development has already been sold out.

Sales in phase 2 are also progressing well.

Anewfeatureof thedevelopmentwill be the

creation of visitor parking facilities to allevi-

ate traffic congestionwithin thedevelopment.

Access to the development is controlled by

booms which are operated by residents cell-

phones as well as security guards stationed

at the guard house for non-residents. The

front entrance will be completed by the end

of April 2013 and the perimeter wall and elec-

trical fence have been installed.

A wireless intercom system has been in-

stalled and is operated using the residents ex-

isting Telkom landlines or cellular phones.

Although the developer is still in the proc-

ess of finalising all the security features, the

crime ratewithin in thedevelopment is virtu-

ally zero.

Acommitteerepresentingthehomeowners

hasbeenelectedbycurrentresidentsandthey

areresponsible for theday-to-dayaffairswith-

in the development. At present Phase 1 of the

development has 94% occupation, with the fi-

nal few residents due tomove in by the begin-

ning of April 2013. A number of existing resi-

dentshavealreadymadehomeimprovements

and most of the homeowners are improving

and maintaining their gardens well.

There are three types of houses to choose

from at present, each catering for different

needs. Selling prices range from R549 000

(three bedrooms and a garage) to R659 900,

which include all transfer and bond registra-

tion costs. The units are brick-built, have

laminated flooring, ceramic tiles as well as

aluminium windows and gutters.

The developer envisages a further price in-

crease later in the year and units at the cur-

rent prices are becoming very limited.

The developer has thus far built up a good

track record with all the major banks, the lo-

cal municipality as well as the National

Homebuilders Registration Council (NH-

BRC)whicharethemaininstitutionsthatreg-

ulateandmonitor theentirebuildingprocess.

The concept of security, lifestyle and great

value formoney that the developer has incor-

porated into the Stone River Valley develop-

ment, has successfully been achieved. Land-

scaping of common areas which include two

playparksandawalkingpathwillbecomplet-

ed during the course of this year.

The developer believes it will be very diffi-

cult for prospective home buyers to find any

comparison in the current market place. Pre-

vious projects completed by Imvusa Homes

of a similar nature to this development have

already shown phenomenal growth in the re-

sale value of those properties.

Welgevonden bucks trend, shows upward sales and price growth

Sales volumes and the average price of homes

inWelgevondenEstate, situated on thenorth-

ern fringes of Stellenbosch, continues to im-

proveyear-on-yearas theestatematures, says

agent Droeks Malan.

Last year about 81 homes sold here to the

total value of almost R130million 42%more

than the 57 units sold in 2011. The average

price is also up by about 4,8% to R1,6 million

fromR1,53million in 2011. This is also higher

than the national average nominal house

pricegrowthof3,9%asreportedbybondorigi-

nator, ooba, says the agent. The average gap

between the asking and selling price has also

narrowed to 3,7%.

Youngerbuyers, especially first timers con-

tinue to flock to the estate that offers a mix

of homes in amodernCape vernacular design

with trendy interiors, says the agent. Regard-

ed as one of the most secure neighbourhoods

in the country, residents enjoy stunning

viewsofthesurroundingmountainsandvine-

yards.Communal facilities includeparksand

play areas, walking trails and dams and new

shopping facilities within walking distance.

An affordable and secure lifestyle has been

the key driver of demand, says the agent.

Within Stellenbosch itself there is little on of-

fer at theR1million toR3millionmark.With-

in the estate, however, buyers have found ex-

cellent valueover thepast year.The strongest

demand remains at the entry level belowR1,5

million with the buyer profile comprising a

mix of first time home buyers and parents in-

vesting in accommodation for their student

children.Therehavealsobeenafewbuy-to-let

investors says Malan.

A mild improvement in mortgage finance

approval rates has also helped sales in the es-

tate according to the agent, but securing fi-

nance remainsachallenge formanywould-be

buyers. While a few full bonds have been

granted, the agent says that a deposit of at

least 10% is a prerequisite. Working with a

bondoriginator such as ooba, has also greatly

benefitedtheirbuyersthisyearastheirmulti-

bank application approach has improved ac-

cess to finance and has often secured a better

interest rate, especially for first time buyers.

The diverse range of property options on of-

fermeansthat there issomethingtosuitevery

buyer need and budget, says Malan.

Mid-market buyers can expect to pay

around R1,45 million for a three bedroomed

lock-up-and go, sold by the agent recently. At

the top end, a three bedroomed home with

modern finishesandextras suchasawinecel-

lar and storeroom, an outdoor entertainment

terrace with braai facilities and a garage, is

onoffer forR1,87million.Thehomeissituated

on a corner plot next to a green area.

CHRIS DE WIT

Ontmoet mens die dinamiese en charis-

matiese hoofuitvoerende beampte van

die Toyota maatskappy, Akio Toyoda, is

dit byna vanselfsprekend dat die familie-

naamrensnaansluitingmoethmetdie

produk self. En dit is dan ook inderdaad

s.

Met die registrasie van die Toyota motor-

maatskappy in 1937 was dit die einste Akio

se oupa, Kiichiro,wat die leiding geneemhet

met die vervaardiging van die eerste passa-

siermotors uit die Toyota-stal. Die afdeling

virmotorvervaardiginghet in1936as napar-

te maatskappy van die Toyota Automatic

LoomWorks wat deur Kiichiro se pa in 1924

gestig is, begin. Die familienaamhet dan ook

daartoe gelei dat die eerstemodelle die naam

Toyoda gedra het, maar met die stigting van

die maatskappy na Toyota verander is. In

1936 is die eerste model, die Toyota AA, be-

kendgestel en in 2008 beklee die maatskappy

die eerste plek as diewreld se grootste voer-

tuigvervaardiger.

AkioToyoda, n ingenieur en renjaer in eie

reg, is daarop uit om motors te bou wat n

meer lonende ry-ervaring gee, maar tog hul

legendariese gehalte en betroubaarheid be-

hou.Hierdievasberadenheidhetreedstotdie

briljante nuwe 86 gelei, waarna die inge-

nieurs die oog op Toyota se middelgrootte

luikrug in die C-segment gefokus het. Die ge-

volg? Die indrukwekkende splinternuwe

2013-Auris, n motor wat jy ewe oortuigend

met jou hart as met jou verstand kan aan-

skaf.

Die Auris, wat van meet af aan ontwerp is

om die voordele van syminder gewig en laer

swaartekragmiddelpunt te benut, het n

splinternuwe buitekant met n sterker pro-

fiel wat van groter selfvertroue getuig. Die

motor pronk aan die voorkant met die nuwe

familie-gesig met karakterlyne en fyn de-

tail, soos die nuwe kopligte wat die motor se

breedteenhurkendehouding laagbokantdie

Die beter toegeruste 1.6 XS-weergawe het allerlei bykomstighede soos die klankstelsel-ver-

toonskerm met truratkamera, ses luidsprekers, sportsitplekke voor, misligte en bluetooth.

Roadhaulage, the

ultimate transportation

Road freight is often the most effective

mode of transport for Southern African

countries, particularly when exporting

to the land-locked countries of Zambia,

Zimbabwe, Malawi.

Road haulage also operates between South

Africa and Swaziland, Lesotho, Botswana

and certain parts of Mozambique, Angola,

and the Democratic Republic of Congo, Tan-

zania and Namibia.

Not only is road freight a consideration for

exports into Africa, but also a large portion

of exports from land-locked cities such as Jo-

hannesburg, Kimberley and Pretoria are

moved down to the port areas of Durban,

Cape Town and Port Elizabeth by road. Even

if you are based near a port, you are likely

to use road transportation to move your

goods from your factory to the quayside.

Thus road transportation may form part

of your transportation considerations, even

if you are shipping your goods by sea. Local

companiesusingair freight toget their goods

to foreignmarkets are similarly likely to use

road transportation to move their products

from the factory to the airport.

You should also not forget that road haul-

agemay formasignificant part of your trans-

portation in countries in Europe, the US,

Australia, etc., as the goods are moved from

the port of discharge to your final destina-

tion.

Thus road freight is likely to form an inte-

gral part of your transportation and logisti-

cal options.

Road freight is often the most effective mode of transport for Southern African countries.
