Hi AllanWhy not get your friend to see if the owners of the block would sell it to him with vendor finance.

Hi ZacAs I mentioned my VF contacts in SA are pretty well non existent. However if you can contact a vendor financier in SA, give him/her a call and ask if they would be interested in receiving referrals from you.We have a couple of people who are great net-workers and they refer frustrated landlords to us who are looking to try to turn their…[Read more]
