Frequently asked questions

How much must I earn to buy a R1,239,000 house?

As a guideline at the current prime rate (10.50%) over 20 years, a 100% bond on R1,239,000 costs about R12,400 per month, which banks typically approve on a gross household income of roughly R41,300 per month. Joint applications combine both incomes.

Do I need a deposit to buy a house in South Africa?

Not always. Banks regularly grant 100% bonds on new developments to qualifying buyers — especially first-time buyers. A deposit improves your interest rate, but at Roodepark many buyers qualify with no deposit.

What is First Home Finance (FLISP) and do I qualify?

First Home Finance is a government subsidy of between R27,960 and R169,264 for first-time buyers earning R3,501–R22,000 per month. The lower your income, the higher the subsidy. It can reduce your bond or cover costs. You must be a SA citizen and a first-time property owner.

What does all-inclusive pricing mean at Roodepark Eco City 2?

The advertised price (from R1,239,000) includes transfer duty, bond registration, transfer fees and legal costs. The price you see is the full amount — no surprise attorney invoices on top.

Can I buy with a partner or family member?

Yes. Joint bond applications combine incomes, which can roughly double what you qualify for. Two incomes of R20,700 each can qualify for a R1,239,000 home at Roodepark.

Can I view the homes before buying?

Yes — book a viewing or take the 3D virtual walkthrough online first. The sales team also runs wildlife-experience viewings of the estate. Call 063 600 3905 or use the booking form to choose a time.
