    I did get a bargain bank auction property recently in a high demand area in Cape Town. The property is currently worth R800k+ and the hammer price was R350k. I only paid for the transfer costs + the R350k.
    The previous owner was struggling financially and rented the property out to a couple who later also struggled to keep up, and that's how it became available via auction. I immediately looked for a cheaper place the occupants could rent and offered to pay their 3 months rent upfront if they vacate. Luckily they took the offer 😁
    All outstanding levies and rates were covered by the bank. And immediately did a few touch ups on the property and put it up for rent. It's currently renting at R7800 pm.
    So trick is, do your research properly and always think of the (smart) plan to evict the occupants ✌🏾😁

      Well done, that's a guge disscount. Thanks for taking the time to share in the comments. Appreciate your input. I think if you know how to identify a bargain, you will be more able to buy one. Great stuff 👏🏻

      Do you get these auctions from the bank's website?

  • @jennarose3088

    When making an offer to a bank on a property in their possession, you must state that your offer includes, "ALL OUTSTANDING DEBTS on the above mentioned property, or the bank can transfer ALL the debts on the property to you. That's what my attorney told me. Always best to wait until the bank buys it in on auction, or you wil end up paying the autioneers commission together with having all the outstanding debts being transfered over to you, unless you include it ALL in your bid. If nobody buys it, then naturally the bank buys it in and it becomes a PIP (Property in Possession)

    I bought a few properties via sheriff but I mostly look for Deceased and insolvent properties. Some I'll flip I even got a 18 unit for a bargain

    I recently wanted to buy a property for my family, which was literally a dream house taken back by the bank. I was happy knowing I’d be able to get a R5 million house for about R3 million. Nope the place sold for R5.4 million, put me off auctions completely

    • @louisreynhardt
      @louisreynhardt  Před 3 měsíci +5

      It's very seldom that ine can get a property at such a karge disscount on auction. You will be better off finding a distressed seller through an agent.

    Funny you posted this, our house is actual going the auction route at the moment. We have chosen to try out this method to see how this varies from a straight sale.

    • @louisreynhardt
      @louisreynhardt  Před 3 měsíci

      Interesting. I would love to hear how it goes. Feel free to let us know. Goodluck 🏠

      @@louisreynhardt will let you know how it goes. AUS primarily only use the auction route. Each house viewer has 15 minutes each to view and decide. More and more estate agents here in SA are pushing this auction sales concept.

    • @louisreynhardt
      @louisreynhardt  Před 3 měsíci

      @jeandesisnards5097 Quite interesting, it can be a great way to get a fair price for both the seller and the buyer. As long as there is reserve prices the seller wont lose.

    I'm an Industrial Property Broker in South Durban, around the Port. I've had great success selling Industrial Property for clients using the willing seller auctions. But only certain properties do well and surpass the Reserve. Properties that have a number of unique selling points and therefore appeal to wide range of end-users, e.g., has 400 Amps, and a Gantry Crane, good height, a wash-bay, etc. Properties that will be vacant on transfer. And where the investors will also bid. The investors push up the end-users, before pulling out, then the end-users are left to out bid each other. Every Property I've brought to Auction for a seller with this success recipe has outdone the Reserve Price.

    • @louisreynhardt
      @louisreynhardt  Před 3 měsíci

      Thank you so much for the insights. This is really good information and also adds to my argument of rarely finding bargain deals on Auctions . I like to think of it as selling at a fair price so that the buyer and seller both wins. Thanks for watching and for supporting the channel, also thank you for adding value to the comments.

    • @michaelmoss6590
      @michaelmoss6590 Před 3 měsíci

      @louisreynhardt depends really, like the FBI Negotiator says, there's no such thing as win-win, it's win-wimp. If you're the seller, you want the best price for your asset. If you're the buyer, you want the best deal, the most bang for your buck. So it's all about perspective.

    The was a video some time ago you gave us an example on how you make agreements with renters to move out if they not paying by offering them the deposit back to avoid the legal way. Would this work were you find houses going to auction and making them an offer to pay at original bond price and offering them 50k . To help them move .

    • @louisreynhardt
      @louisreynhardt  Před 3 měsíci +4

      Yes absolutely, this will be the route I will follow instead of the eviction process. Always try to resolve conflict with a clear and calm head instead of using force

    Good day. I recently stumbled upon your channel. Thank you. It is very informative.
    I am thinking of investing in commercial property. However I don't know the value per square meters. How do you calculate that or should you inquire it at the real estate companies.

    • @louisreynhardt
      @louisreynhardt  Před 3 měsíci +1

      Thank you very much for supporting the channel.
      To get to the price per square meter, you simply divide the listing price with the floor size.
      So let's say R5m ÷ 450sqm = +-R11000 per square meter.
      Then you can use comps to see whether it's cheap or expensive

    How do you duck agents as the seller would usually ask much less without using an agent?

    • @louisreynhardt
      @louisreynhardt  Před 3 měsíci +2

      There are private listed properties on property 24 or on FB marketplace. You can't really remove an agent from the process unless you purposely try to cut them out. There are possibilities of lawsuits if the agent was the effective cause of the sale and you bought the properry from the owner. So just be careful how you approach it . Hope it helps 💪🏻

    • @louisreynhardt
      @louisreynhardt  Před 3 měsíci +1

      You will have to find it the old-fashioned way. Networking with agents and building relationships. Or to just enquire about listed property's on property 24 .
