Tomorrow morning on YOU Before Noon 🎙️

We’re talking all things property — from signing an Offer to Purchase and rent-to-buy, to buying a tenanted property and the legal red flags every buyer should know before signing.

🏡 What really affects the value of your property?

Tomorrow morning I’m joining Bongani & Sli on Vuma 103 FM to chat about why properties lose value, what homeowners can do to protect their investment, and whether there’s legal recourse when problems in the surrounding area affect property values.

📻 Tune In Tomorrow on YOUFM

I’ll be joining YouFM tomorrow morning at 10:40am to discuss an important topic that affects many South Africans: RDP housing and the legal issues surrounding the buying and selling of RDP properties.

There is often confusion about what is legally permissible, the rights of homeowners, and the risks that can arise when property transactions are not handled correctly. We’ll be unpacking some of the key legal considerations and practical issues that every homeowner and prospective buyer should understand.

Whether you own an RDP house, are considering purchasing one, or simply want to better understand the law, I encourage you to tune in.

I look forward to sharing this conversation with you.

There are few things more inspiring than seeing someone turn their journey of faith, resilience and perseverance into a testimony that can empower others.

I am looking forward to supporting my dear friend, Nompilo Gumede, at the Johannesburg launch of her book, Building Business Resilience. I am also honoured to be one of the speakers at this special event.

If you are an entrepreneur, business owner, professional, or simply someone who enjoys hearing stories of courage and determination, I encourage you to join us.

Let’s come together to celebrate a remarkable achievement and be inspired by a story of overcoming challenges and building a thriving business against the odds.

🏡 Catch me on Vuma FM this morning at 8:20 AM as I discuss the legal realities of purchasing property from a deceased estate.

While these properties can present great opportunities for buyers, they also come with unique legal processes, potential delays, and important risks that every purchaser should understand before signing an agreement.

Join me for a practical conversation on how to navigate the process and protect yourself when buying property from a deceased estate.

Catch me this morning at 10:40am on YouFM’s You Before Noon as we unpack the proposed PIE Amendment Bill and what it could mean for landlords, tenants, unlawful occupation, eviction proceedings, and property rights in South Africa.

🎙️ I’ll be joining YouFM tomorrow at 10:40 AM to unpack a topic that affects both landlords and tenants:

What actually happens when rent is not paid — and what the law allows (and does not allow).

21/04/2026

Most landlords don’t know this…

When a tenant dies, the lease doesn’t automatically terminate.

If your contract is silent, you could be stuck dealing with the deceased estate—and making the wrong move can cost you legally.

The real question is:
👉 Does your lease protect you?

17/04/2026

Selling privately is not the problem.
Doing it without intention is.

Yes, you can sell your property without an estate agent.
But that decision requires clarity, structure, and the right legal guidance.

From vetting purchasers…
to securing your deal…
to protecting your interests…

Every step matters.

If you’re considering a private sale, don’t just do it to save commission—
do it properly.

Here’s some free advice on a chilly Monday 😊

I don’t normally get RDP property enquiries, but I’ve had a few come through recently and I need to say this plainly.

Too many people are “selling” RDP houses they don’t legally own.

I sat in a consultation with a seller and a cash buyer who were ready to sign immediately. Money was not the issue.

When I asked for the documents-title deed, proof of allocation, confirmation from the municipality — there was nothing.

And yet, the deal was already moving.

What concerns me is how normal this has become. It’s the same pattern I see with tribal land transactions — agreement first, legal position later (if at all).

If you can’t prove ownership, you don’t have anything to sell. If the property is still in the municipality’s name, there is nothing to transfer.

So what is being sold?

A promise. A story. An expectation that things will somehow work out.

Sometimes they don’t.

I’ve seen how this ends. Money will change hands, disputes will follow, and the cost of fixing will be far greater than doing it properly from the beginning.

Start with ownership. Everything else comes after that.
