The first 25 buyers to register and successfully purchase a home will receive an exclusive R 50,000 discount. Registered buyers will get login access to reserve their homes before the open launch, ensuring priority. This discount can reduce your purchase price or provide cash back upon occupation. Terms apply.

The “Select Your Home” (Configurator) app, launching with sales in early 2025, allows registered buyers to explore available homes. Final home prices will be disclosed at launch and updated with each development phase, ensuring you have the latest information to make an informed decision. 

All reservations will be conducted online. Follow these steps to secure your desired unit:

• Register Your Interest: Sign up on our website before the reservation date.
• Go Live: When reservations open, use the “Select Your Home” (Configurator) to reserve your unit.
• Select and Reserve: Choose your home and optional extras, click RESERVE, complete the form, accept the terms, and click CONTINUE.
• Payment: Your reservation will be pending for 10 minutes. Pay a nonrefundable R 7,500 deposit via EFT and email proof. Once confirmed, your status will change to RESERVED, and you’ll receive a confirmation email.
• Sign Agreements: Agreements of Sale will be emailed to you. Please print, sign, and return them within 48 hours. A refundable deposit is also required within 7 days – R7,500 for financed deals or 30% of the total purchase price for cash deals.
• Final Steps: Secure the remaining balance within 21 days through bond approval, bank guarantee, or cash. For cash payments, a non-refundable 30% deposit is an option, with the balance due two months before transfer.

Stay alert and act quickly to secure your dream home!

Reservations are made online through the “Select Your Home” (Configurator) application. Register your interest before the launch. Once the countdown ends, a green reserve button will appear, allowing you to secure your preferred home by pressing it and paying the deposit. You’ll receive an email with the Agreements of Sale to sign within 48 hours.

The deposit will be paid into the transferring attorney’s interest-bearing account, ensuring that your funds are secure while also earning interest on your behalf. This means that not only is your deposit protected during the transaction process, but you will also benefit from accrued interest until the transfer is completed.

Take advantage of a R 50,000 launch day discount! Select from the finest available units and expect approximately 15% capital appreciation over 20 months as the developer installs estate infrastructure, engineering services, and builds your home. Don’t miss this opportunity for significant growth and savings!

In Paarl, comparable developments average over 10% annual capital growth, potentially increasing your property value significantly in five years. As rental income rises and bond repayments remain steady, costs become more manageable. Strong demand for secure high-end properties makes now an ideal time to invest for long-term wealth and income.

You can easily estimate your potential bond amount online using the Betterbond Indicator. This quick and user-friendly tool provides an approximate figure based on your financial details. However, please note that this is not a formal bond approval, but rather a helpful starting point for your mortgage planning.

If your bond application is declined, your deposit will be refunded with interest. The purchase agreement depends on bond approval. To avoid losing the R 7,500 non-refundable reservation deposit, consider getting pre-qualified to ensure you can comfortably afford the bond before the launch.

Once your bond is approved, repayments start after the estate infrastructure is installed and the stand is transferred to your name, following the bank’s first payment to the developer. Be prepared for this timeline, as you won’t need to make payments until the transfer is complete.

In this transaction, buyers benefit from no transfer duty, enhancing affordability. While transfer fees—often referred to as attorney costs—are typically incurred, these expenses will be covered by the developer. This arrangement simplifies the purchasing process, allowing buyers to focus on securing their new property without additional financial burdens.

Levies are essential fees that support the maintenance and management of the estate, covering vital services such as security, cleaning, and landscaping of common areas. They also encompass maintenance costs, building insurance, and operational expenses for property management.

Municipal rates and taxes, set by the Drakenstein municipality, are based on property value and service availability. Once the stand is officially transferred from the developer, you’ll need to budget for both levies and municipal rates.

For further details, please refer to the estimated levies schedule provided by the developer.

The contract price reflects the total amount for the property. Additional costs include monthly rates and levies. However, these costs are often offset by the interest accrued on your deposit during the construction period, making them more manageable.

Once the infrastructure, including roads and services, is complete, construction of your home will begin. After your home has been finished, you’ll receive an occupation certificate, permitting you to occupy or rent out your property. This certificate ensures compliance with safety and building regulations, providing a secure environment for you and your tenants.

Investors can take advantage of significant tax incentives under Section 13 sex of the Income Tax Act No 58 of 1962. This provision allows taxpayers owning five or more new residential rental units to claim up to 55% of the purchase price as a tax deduction. For instance, purchasing five units at a total price of R 15,000,000 (R 3,000,000 each) minus a launch discount of R 250,000 results in a final purchase price of R 14,750,000. The deemed purchase price would then be R 8,112,500. Investors can deduct 5% of this amount annually, leading to a total tax write-off of R 8,112,500 over 20 years, equating to R 405,625 per year.

To qualify for Section 13 Sex, taxpayers must own at least five residential units, with eligibility starting when they acquire their fifth new unit. Residential units refer to buildings or self-contained apartments intended solely for residential use, excluding business properties like hotels. All units must be located in South Africa and must be newly purchased—previously occupied flats do not qualify. Additionally, the units must be utilised exclusively for residential letting to qualify. For more details, please consult your tax advisor.

Huguenot is a pet-friendly estate, welcoming residents and their furry companions. However, to maintain harmony and ensure safety, the estate enforces strict guidelines outlined in the constitution and rules.

SmartMatter is a FinTech company with a mission to empower the property industry with a scalable end-to-end payment solution

SmartMatters’ solution optimises all payment processes at Huguenot Estate, employing innovative FinTech solutions to optimise billing, collection and reporting.

The payment process is structured in stages:

• R7,500 Reservation Deposit: Payable immediately to secure your unit.
• R7,500 Contract Deposit: Due once contracts are signed, prior to submission for bond application.
• Balance of Deposit: Based on bond approval outcome (e.g., a 90% bond approval would require a 10% deposit). In case of Cash-buyers – 30% of total Contract Value.
• Erf Transfer Payment: Payable once services are installed and approved by the municipality and your stand transfer to you, the purchaser. If bonded, this will be paid from your deposit + remaining portion by the bank.
• Construction Payments: These are paid monthly based on completed work (drawings from the builder).

Note: Depending on how your bond is structured, interim interest may be payable during construction. Some banks may offer up to 105% bonds to assist with this. Speak to our Bond Originator for guidance.

While you are not obliged to use BetterBond, we strongly recommend working with our Bond Originator Anelda Smith of BetterBond. She applies to multiple banks on your behalf, negotiates the best possible deal, and is highly familiar with Huguenot Estate’s process.

If you have an existing relationship with Investec, simply inform Anelda – she will include them in the application process. Her experience with this specific development greatly increases your chances of success and simplifies the process for you.

Once your erf is transferred into your name, municipal rates will be payable directly to the municipality. Based on similar nearby developments, you can expect municipal rates of approximately R1,600 per month.

Estate levies will be around R1,300 per month for the first year, with a planned increase in year two according to the estate’s approved budget.

For a detailed breakdown of all costs and a 3-year financial forecast, visit our “documents” section on this website.

Stand transfer will take place once services (roads, electricity, water) are installed and approved.

Construction begins immediately after transfer and should be completed within 9 months. Occupation only takes place after final payment to the builder has been made.

As a result, occupational rent does not apply – you’ll take possession of the home once it’s fully built and paid for.
