Why use a Bond Originator?

Bond Originators

The home loan / Bond Finance market in South Africa has, over the past few years, become very competitive. Not only are the number of mortgage providers in South Africa increasing, but competition among the four major bond providers has really started to heat up.

One reason for this is because bond originators have finally arrived in South Africa. Bond origination has existed for many years overseas and it’s partly because of bond originators that competing banks have been forced to offer better service and better mortgage products.

Through its unique relationship with banks a SA Mortgage Originator is able to apply to multiple banks and get your application approved faster.

Benefits of using a Bond Originator:
1. You don’t need to go through the application process with every bank. The originator will collect all the necessary documentation and setup your application to ensure the process is a smooth one.

2. You only need to complete one application, which will be submitted to different banks. After your approvals are received from the different banks its up to you to decide which bank your wish to go with.

3. Better rates: Because we have a strong relationship with all the major banks we are able to negotiate a lower rate on your bond – which will save you thousands over the term of the home loan.

4. Free Service: Probably the best feature of the bond origination industry is that the service offered is totally free. The bank pays the originator and these costs are not passed on to the client.

Property Loans is one of the top mortgage originators in South Africa. They are also able to offer you some very nice bonuses and discounts, such as:

  • Discounted bond fees
  • Really Fast Approvals
  • and best of all, this service is completely free of charge.

I signed a offer to purchase and one of the conditions stated that it is valid on condition that the seller get another house to buy and a loan from the bank.Since there is no tme limit can we ask them to ammend the agreement or can i cancel it because say for example she gets a house in 1 year does it means i have to wait a whole year.

  4. Hi BOSA

    I just read that one can negotiate with the bank to give them a bond at a prime minus rate. As a first time buyer having a very good credit record (car, etc) is it possible to negotiate for such a rate?

    • Hi Chetan,
      We usually begin the process of securing homeloans for our clients by requesting an Interest Rate Quotation from the various banks.
      After your application is submitted and we have received favourable responses, we are able to negotiate the rates between the participating lenders.

  10. Bond originators can be a great “tool” when you are buying property, but beware of the dishonest ones – always phone the banks a few days after you’ve given your application to a bond originator to make sure they have shopped around. I used a bond originator with the last property I bought, and was told that only one bank “approved” my application – when I phoned my own bank to find out why they “declined” it, they never received it – nor did other banks.

  11. People have told me that ABSA are requiring up to date building plans to be shown when applying for a bond. Can you tell me any more about this? Are other banks doing this, or perhaps planning to do this.

  12. Hi there, I’m already a registered bond owner. i’m already on a 30 year payback period with ABSA. i would like to find out if there is any other way i can reduce my bond payments. i bought the house for R640 000 and (don’t remember what my lending rate/percentage was). with the latest rate hike, i’m now paying close to R7000 for my bond and i feel it’s a bit much. please help!

    Hi Tsholofelo,

    As you are currently on a 30year term your best option would be to renegotiate your interest rate. The smallest difference will save you thousands over the term of your home loan.

  13. I am currently in the process of applying for business finance. My business advisor gave a number of options which included me seeing a bond originator.

    How do I go about completing an application through a bond originator?
