PURCHASE A STUDIO & BREAK EVEN FROM DAY ONE
77 Units are cash flow positive from day one
This means that with our estimated rental projections, from the first month you will receive rental income higher than your bond repayment, rates and levies.
Estimated returns from 8.6% – 12.7%
Studios at The Signal have an expected rental returns that range from 8.6% – 12.7%, with historical capital appreciation in the precinct also averaging around 10%. This suggests a total annualised return from 18.6% – 22.7% per annum.
This means you can own a studio and the rental generated will cover your costs
For illustration, consider a studio apartment priced at R750,000. With paying just a 10% deposit upfront, the balance is financed through a 90% home loan at the prime lending rate. Monthly ownership costs are then calculated after factoring in the bond repayments, building levies and municipal rates, giving investors a surplus from day one.
SMART INVESTING STARTS AT THE SIGNAL
Purchasing a new-build at The Signal can unlock significant tax benefits under Section 13sex of the South African Income Tax Act.
This scheme enables any taxpayer who owns five or more new, residential rental units (not necessarily all from the same development), to claim up to 55% of the purchase price as a tax deduction.
The Signal is particularly well-positioned for this incentive for several reasons:
- New-build units qualify from completion date
- Phased development supports portfolio building over time
- Strong rental demand driven by location and precinct design
- Off-plan pricing offers early entry advantages
Example Calculation
- Purchase five units at a total purchase price of R5 000 000
- Deemed purchase price = R2 750 000 (55% of final purchase price)
- 5% of the deemed price may be used as a tax deduction per year
- This works out to a tax deduction (tax write-off) of R137 500 per year for 20 years.
- Total tax write-off = R2 750 000 (over 20 years)
Taxpayer Criteria for 13Sex
- The taxpayer must own at least 5 residential units. The deal kicks in once the buyer takes ownership of their 5th new unit. A residential apartment refers to a building or self-contained apartment, mainly used for residential accommodation with the exclusion of structures used for business purposes, for example, hotels.
- All units must be situated in South Africa.
- Residential units must have been purchased new and unused. (For example, buyers of flats that had previously been occupied would not qualify for this incentive.)
- The units must be used solely for the purpose of trade (i.e. residential letting). This prevents housing claims for personal use.
- Please consult your tax advisor for further clarification and information.
