    • Dedicated bond originator/consultant throughout the process;
    • Coordinate meetings with each of the banks to present the development (if required);
    • Administer all the paperwork required by the banks;
    • Ensure your development is Approved for end user finance with the major financial institutions, namely:
    • ABSA, FNB, Standard Bank, Nedbank, RMB, Ithala and HIP (Old Mutual)
    • Provide you with Package letters detailing the bank’s approval and conditions (e.g. exposure);
    • Ensure your nominated attorney firm is stipulated on the Package letter; and

    Legal Compliance - NHBRC

    NHBRC National Homebuilders Registration Council:

    • Promotes ethical and technical standards;
    • Holds homebuilders accountable for the homes they build; and
    • Provides sanctions for non compliance.

    A financial institution cannot lend money to a person to purchase a new home from a development if:

    • The Developer AND Builder are not registered with the NHBRC
    • The home has not been enrolled with the NHBRC
    • The relevant fees have not been paid to the NHBRC

    The Housing Consumers Protection Measures Act 95 of 1998 requires Builders to be registered with the NHBRC. The Act was introduced into our law to protect housing consumers and establish the NHBRC as the regulatory body of the homebuilding industry.
