Buyer & Seller FAQ: Navigating the Future of Property
Is it safe to negotiate directly with a seller or buyer?
Yes. Every user on our platform undergoes a rigorous vetting process. Our AI agents verify multiple data points (such as ID documents, credit checks and matching criteria) before any appointment is confirmed with the Seller. For the Buyer, we confirm ownership through COJ documents and the Deeds office. Because you are dealing with the property owner directly, there is no "middleman" filter, leading to higher transparency and honest communication. Any negotiations that take place form a relationship deal between the two parties, which makes the process a lot quicker.
Who handles the legal paperwork if there is no agent?
The legal process remains the same as a traditional sale. Once you agree on a price, our accredited conveyancing partners take over the legal transfer. These are professional, independent law firms that ensure all South African property laws are strictly followed.
How do I qualify for the 25% transfer fee subsidy?
The subsidy is automatically applied when you choose to use our preferred, accredited conveyancing firms. These partners are integrated into our AI workflow to ensure a seamless and faster transfer process. All the benefits are transparent and detailed above.
What happens if we cannot agree on a price during the meeting?
There is no pressure. You can use our platform to continue the negotiation or look for other AI-matched properties. Our goal is a productive connection, not a forced sale.
Landlord’s Quick-Start Guide: The 50% Placement Model
Our rental division is designed specifically for property owners who want high-quality tenants without the high overhead of a traditional rental agent.
1. Algorithm-Driven Vetting
We don't just "find" tenants; we match them. Our proprietary algorithms analyze credit scores, rental histories, and financial stability to present you with only the most qualified candidates. This reduces the risk of defaults and ensures a better long-term fit for your property.
The 50% Fee Advantage
Because our process is automated and efficient, we do not need to charge you a full month's rent. Our fee is a flat 50% of the first month's rental. You get the same (or better) vetting quality for half the price.
3. Direct Management
We believe landlords are best equipped to manage their own properties. Once our AI has concluded the placement and the lease is signed, the relationship moves directly to you. We provide a clean handoff with no ongoing management fees or interference.
4. High-Speed Placement
Our platform is active 24/7. While traditional agents are restricted by office hours, our AI agents are constantly matching your property with prospective tenants, significantly reducing your vacancy periods
