MBAT BUILD GUARD TRUST

The homeowner is scared to pay. The builder is scared he won't get paid.

MBAT Build Guard Trust helps create structure around the financial side of the project. Funds are administered according to the agreed contractual framework, helping protect the client against paying where agreed payment requirements have not been met, while giving the builder greater confidence that funds are available when contractual requirements are satisfied.

MBAT can also assist with the construction contract.

Important: Build Guard does not project manage or supervise the construction. Its role is contractual structure and financial administration.

Planning a build? Put the financial framework in place before the first brick.

COMMERCIAL LAW

A verbal agreement can feel perfectly clear when everyone is getting along. The problem usually arrives when memories differ, deadlines move or money is still outstanding.

A well-drafted written agreement gives both parties a reference point: what must be delivered, when payment is due, what happens if something changes and how disputes will be handled.

For small businesses, good contracts are not unnecessary paperwork. They are part of protecting cash flow, relationships and the business itself.

Before you shake on the next big deal, put the important terms in writing.

Business owners, what clause do you wish you had included in a past agreement?

Meet Stella: Making Property Transfers Feel Personal

Clients remember efficiency, but they also remember how you made them feel during the process.

Property transfers involve documents, deadlines, banks, agents and plenty of moving parts.

Behind those moving parts are people like Stella, who understands that clients want more than progress. They want communication, respect and reassurance.
Rendani’s recent message praised Stella’s professionalism and regular updates throughout a successful transfer completed within two months.

That is the MBAT standard in action.

WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF… A Tenant Stopped Paying?

Your tenant has missed another payment, but changing the locks could create an even bigger problem.

Imagine your tenant has stopped paying rent and is no longer answering calls.
Do you:
A: Change the locks
B: Remove their belongings
C: Follow the correct legal process
D: Ask your cousin who β€œknows these things”

Property disputes are frustrating, but acting outside the law can make the situation worse. Calm advice beats angry decisions.

Choose A, B, C or D in the comments before checking what everyone else picked.

From Signed Offer to Registration in Two Months

Some client messages deserve more than a quick reply. They deserve to be celebrated.

Hi Chantal My husband and I signed an offer to purchase a property in March 2026. The otp was signed on 18 March and the property has been registered with the deeds office within a period of 2 months. The service from MBAT was amazing. They are professional and respect clients. Time is of essence with MBAT and we received weekly updates on the status of the transfer process. Thank you Stella, you are amazing.

Business partnerships often begin with trust, energy and a good idea.

The trouble starts when nobody discussed what happens if one partner leaves, stops contributing or wants to compete.

Sort it out before it becomes a braai story.
