Balwin Properties introduces groundbreaking trade-in programmme for homeowners in Gauteng and KwaZulu-Natal, setting a new standard in sectional title homes.
The trade-in programme is known as Balwin Approved.
“We’re very excited about this concept, which enables homeowners to trade in their current Balwin apartment for a new Balwin apartment,” Balwin Chief Executive, Steve Brookes explained.
“Premium motor vehicle brands have been doing this for years, where you can trade in your good quality car for a later model or buy a vehicle with peace of mind because of the manufacturer’s multipoint inspection and backing.
“Balwin Approved works on a similar basis, backed by our trusted brand, in what I believe is a first-of-its-kind concept for sectional title homes.”
In terms of the process, Balwin will inspect, evaluate, and certify an apartment as Balwin Approved. It will then make an offer to purchase to the homeowner, subject to the apartment being on-sold within 90 days from the offer date. All costs such as transfer duties and fees, as well as refurbishment costs, are included in the offer, allowing for a hassle-free and seamless process.
