LINDAVANNES INRE/MAX SOUTHERNAFRICASHALLOF FAME

LocalRE/MAXestateagents in top10

RE/MAX released their spectac-

ular 2013 YTD results in May.

Included in the latest results are

three RE/MAXHelderberg sales as-

sociates Linda van Nes, Elmar

Doran and Maarten Laubscher

who received quarterly achieve-

ment awards for their rankings

within the top 10RE/MAXagents in

the Western and Northern Cape.

Having three of the top 10 RE/

MAX Individual SalesAssociates in

the Northern and Western Cape re-

gionsonour teamisamassivevicto-

ry for us, says RE/MAX Helder-

berg broker/ owner, Lee Siebert,

proudly. There are literally sever-

al hundred highly successful RE/

MAX sales associates within these

two regions and the cream on the

top is in our Somerset West office

in Waterstone Village!

RE/MAX Helderberg was again

recognised as the top single office in

the Western and Northern Cape in

RE/MAX SAs 2013 results and is in

second position nationally.

RE/MAX Southern Africa an-

nounced last week that Linda Van

Nes had attained RE/MAX Hall of

Fame for the Southern African re-

gion, one of themost prestigious ca-

reer achievement awards within

the international RE/MAX Group.

Carefully listening to my sellers

and buyers andmaking an invento-

ry of my clients requirements and

desires, is elementary in brokering

asuccessful deal,washer reaction.

Good communication and feed-

back to my clients is an absolute

must too. In that respect, speaking

several languages isabigadvantage

I amskilled inconversations inAf-

rikaans, Dutch, English, German

andevenasmatteringofFrench.My

knowledge of the property market

in SomersetWest in general, aswell

as the actual offer of properties for

sale,makes it easier forme tomatch

buyerswith their future home. And

this is the most rewarding part of

my profession.

Over the past 13 years she has

been involved in more than 500

property transactions. Every year

she has consistently achieved

awards based on her sales volumes.

Thisyearhasbeenanexceptional

year thus far for this enthusiastic

real estate professional. Recently,

the spotlight shone on Van Nes as

the top RE/MAX agent in the West-

ern and Northern Cape YTD.

Van Nes believes that RE/MAX

South Africa and RE/MAX Interna-

tional select and invest in property

professionals, constantly educating

and training their estate agents.

This iswhyour standards are high

andwhyweare number one locally,

nationally and internationally.

Websites, marketing tools such

as TV adverts and all developments

within social media are becoming

more important inour industryeve-

ry day. We, as property profession-

als at RE/MAX, have all these tools

at our disposal and consequently

are equipped to sell a propertywith-

in thesolemandateperiod,at thede-

sired price level and with the least

hassle, explains Van Nes.

RE/MAX Helderberg offers me

the ideal office location at Water-

stone Village shopping precinct

with the perfect showcase scoop of

our mandates on a 365/24/7 basis.

Together with my fellow estate

agents, admin colleagues and our

broker/owner, Lee Siebert, we

make sales happen, she says.

Elmar Dorans career in real es-

tate began in 1989 and by 1995 she

managedherownrealestatecompa-

ny. She joined RE/MAX in 2009 and

achieved Platinum Club Status

within three years.

Whenaskedwhatherexperiences

in her real estate have taught her,

Doran says: Forming lifelong rela-

tionships which lead to a referral

based success system has worked

for me. I have always been a top

achiever and have been richly re-

warded for my efforts by the recur-

ring business that I conclude with

my clients. In fact, the majority of

my business derives from personal

referrals frompast satisfied clients.

I have attained great heights

within the RE/MAX system, and

have continuously won numerous

sales and service awards. I am

proudly among the top three RE/

MAX agents in the Western and

Northern Cape YTD in 2013.

My success is based onmy refer-

ral network, my knowledge and ex-

perience of the market and the in-

credible assistance and networking

opportunities that I receive from

RE/MAX. I am looking forward to

the rest of 2013 and to assisting new

and existing clients.

Maarten Laubscher is well-

knownfordeliveringresultsand for

excellent after-sales customer serv-

ice.

I have been in the property in-

dustry since 2003. In my real estate

career, spanning a decade, I have

sold to hundreds of satisfied cli-

ents, explains Laubscher.

Because I give my clients excel-

lent service, they talk to their

friends and family about me, and

then refer them tome! Thats where

85% of my business comes from. I

joined RE/MAX Helderberg seven

years ago and have achieved RE/

MAXsales awards for seven consec-

utive years. I find our location at

Waterstone Village incredible. As a

teamweare concluding aminimum

of one sale everyday!

Linda van Nes: Having a positive

attitude to life and a healthy sense

of humour has been my recipe for

success!

Elmar Doran: With my 24 years

of real estate experience, I am li

ving the RE/MAX dream with pas

sion.

Maarten Laubscher: 85% of my

clients are sourced through referred

Howdo I ensuremyproperty

sells formaximum?

Its the question every seller wants an-

swered:HowdoIsell forthemostthemar-

ket will pay?

In answering the question there are a

numberof issues toconsider.For thepurpose

of this article we will focus on some of them,

andfuturearticleswilldealwithotherimpor-

tant influencing factors.

The first truth to appreciate is that your

property will sell for the most

money if it sells early on in the

listing process.

The longeraproperty stayson

the market, the less it will sell

for. Why? Because at any point

in time there is a pool of buyers

in the marketplace.

When your property is listed

these buyers will respond to the

marketing and view it. If your

property is overpriced they will

votewith their feet andmoveon.

Even if you drop your price lat-

er, its very difficult to get these

buyers back.

A property that is listed for an extended

period of time becomes known as a stale list-

ing. Buyers will think there is something

wrong with the listing and will almost never

offer full price making very low offers, if

any.

Contrast that scenario with the seller who

lists his property at the correctmarket value

right at the very start of the marketing proc-

ess. Buyers will see the property and show

interest as it represents fair market value.

They will compete for the property and put

their very best offer in and you will sell

quickly for the maximum the market will

pay.

So, in order to achieve the highest price

possible, its critical to listat thecorrectprice

right at the beginning. Overpricing will cost

you in the long run.And dont be tricked into

listing with the agent who overvalues your

listing just to get the mandate. An agent has

no control over market value so base your

decision solely on an accurate comparative

market analysis.

Whatelsewillassistyouingettingthemost

themarket will pay?Make sure your proper-

tystandsout in thecrowd.Whenyoulistyour

property for sale you are marketing your

propertyincompetitiontooth-

erpropertiesnotin isolation.

Make sure your property is easi-

ly visible to buyers. Take your

property to the buyers, rather

than wait for them to stumble

across you.

How can you do this? Massive

marketing. Period. Yes, website

marketingisveryimportant,and

its not something you can do

without. But print marketing re-

allymakesyour listingstandout.

You are visible to passive buyers

aswellasactivebuyerswhenyou

have printmarketing and youneedmassive

buyer activity to achieve the best price. So en-

sureyougetthebestprintmarketingpossible.

Next you will need to consider how your

property presents itself. Try and view it

through the eyes of apotential buyer. Is there

anything you can do to show off the most de-

sirableattributesofyourproperty?Are there

any maintenance issues that would detract

from the value?

In future articles we will explore this as-

pect in more detail.

However, presentation is a critical aspect

that needs to be addressed if you want to sell

for the money you deserve.

saksie te beklink dat hulle nie seker maak

Volgens Braam de Jager, nasionale be-

dryfsbestuurder van die eiendomsagent-

skapgroep Aida, kan probleme in die eien-

domsektor ontstaan indien die persoonwat

die koopaanbod onderteken, nie die regma-

tige eienaar van die eiendom is nie. Dit ge-

beur byvoorbeeld heel dikwels dat bejaarde

ouers wat na n ouetehuis verhuis die ver-

koop van hul huis aan n kind oorlaat. En

dit kan tot onverwagte en duur vertragings

in die oordrag van die eiendom of selfs tot

n kansellasie van die transaksie lei.

Volgens De Jager voorskryf die wet nie

dat die verkoper van n vaste eiendom die

eienaar hoef te wees nie. Die wet stipuleer

egter dat die persoon wat by die Aktekan-

toor as die eienaar geregistreer is, die enig-

ste persoon is wat goedkeuring vir oordrag

van die eiendom na die nuwe eienaar mag

gee. Kopers kan sulke slaggate vermy deur

sake tedoenmetgekwalifiseerdeeiendoms-

behoort voordat hulle n koop-ooreenkoms

When the Flemish botanist Clusi-

us travelled through Spain in

1564, hewas so fixatedby theblue

Iris xiphium that he sent bulbs

back to Belgium, introducing

what is known as the Spanish iris

to the country.

Fast forward to the end of the 19th

century when this Spanish variety

had spread to the Netherlands and

was crossed with Iris tingitana from

north-west Africa The resulting

plant, because of its hybridisation

taking place in the Netherlands, was

immediatelyknownastheDutchiris,

its flower presenting as larger and

broader than its two parent plants.

The spectacular iris is a plant that

does not easily pass the eye without

eliciting a sigh. Even master artists

suchasVincentvanGoghhavepaint-

ed these blooms to last an eternity on

canvas. Luckily for non-painters, a

garden canvas is possible if we plant

our irises with care and water them

with the regularity they require.

One of 260 iris species, the Dutch

iris follows thesame formasall other

plantsinthisgenus,displayingsixex-

quisite petals (three central, upright

standards; three larger outer

falls that recurve outward).

This species, which falls into the

iris bulbous category, grows up to

80 cmhigh,a lovely length ina flower

bedthatallows it toshowoff itsblues,

whitesandyellows,dependingonthe

type coloursbefitting therootof the

word iris, which stems from the

Greek word for rainbow.

For natural planting, choose to

plant your bulbs at the beginning of

May,whenautumntemperaturesare

cooler, as this is not a heat-loving

plant at all. Thiswill result inblooms

during late September and early Oc-

tober.

However, youre easily able to ma-

nipulate this adaptable plant and

make it flower in early September if

youdlikespringtomakeitselfvisible

in your garden earlier. Place the

bulbs in the fridge for sixweeks from

mid-March until the end of April be-

fore planting them, and the flowers

will appear sooner in your garden.

Createa separatedspace in the fridge

for these bulbs (one that allows them

to be stored without being in contact

with food, preferably in their own

drawer,astheymayhavebeenincon-

tact with certain poisons that you

dont want contaminating your edi-

bles).

The advantage of this fridging

method is that, because Dutch irises

love a cooler climate, theyll flower

for longer at this earlier time of year.

Have you noticed the affinity for

thewordcoolassociatedwiththese

plants? This iswhy,when it comes to

plantingthem,makesureitsinaspot

where the soil is cool too not any-

whereclose tohotpavingor touching

anorth-facingwall,anddefinitelynot

in a position that receives full sun.

Keep your spot somewhat shaded

overhanging branches work well

because they serve the dual purpose

of protecting the plants from frost.

As for the soil, ensure it has suffi-

cientcompostworkedinto it, andadd

more on top of the soil surface so that

you have a cooling mulch. Place

bulbs 5 cm below the ground, 7 cm

OUTBACKNOWAVAILABLEWITHDIESEL: FUEL ECONOMY IMPROVED

Diesel andCVTboost SubaruOutback

QUICKPIC

Subarus quintessential go-any-

where, do-anything crossover is

at the forefront of the companys

technological innovation the

world-renowned Outback is now

available with diesel power and

CVT automatic transmission.

For the first time ever, Subarus

Boxer diesel and Lineartronic

CVT technologies are meeting to

create the perfect combination of

engine and transmission in a car

which is still the darling of anyone

who wants a machine with no

boundaries. Confidence in Mo-

tion is the Subaru brand slogan

and the new Outback diesel CVT is

the personification of this powerful

maxim.

Joining the existing Subaru Out-

back 2.5i Premium Lineartronic,

thenewOutback2.0DPremiumLin-

eartronic brings with it the same

high levels of quality, equipment,

safety and refinement that Outback

customersandfansarealreadyused

to, but with a host of added benefits

brought along by the introduction

of diesel power.

Famed for being the only Boxer

diesel engine in the world, the Sub-

aruBoxerdiesel engine,whichus-

es turbocharging and a horizontal-

ly-opposed punching or boxing

piston action around a central

crank shaft two technologies with

which Subaru is exceptionallywell-

acquainted is the pinnacle of Sub-

aru engine development and tech-

nology. The 2.0F force-fed DOHC

four-cylinder Boxer diesel engine

carries inherent benefits, besides

those of good fuel economy usually

associated with diesel motors.

Boxer construction allows for

the engine to be long and flat with

a low centre of gravity, as opposed

to a conventional in-line engine

which is much taller with a high

centre of gravity.

The default advantage is that the

engine can bemounted low down in

the enginebaywhich in turn lowers

the vehicles centre of gravity, con-

tributing tonoticeablehandling im-

provements overall. Thanks to the

assistance of the turbocharger, the

Boxer diesel engine produces 110

kW of power at 3 600 rpm and

350 Nm of torque between 1 800 and

2 400 rpm.

The generous helping of torque

notonlycontributes toasignificant-

ly relaxing drive, where the accom-

panying Boxer thrum also allows

for pleasant acoustics as opposed to

other four-cylinder diesel engines

which tend to produce rather unin-

spiring sounds, but fuel economy is

similarly enjoyable the new Out-

back diesel CVT drinks an average

of just 6.5 F per 100 km on the com-

bined cycle, and carbon emissions

are low at 172 g/km. Fuel require-

ments are strictly low sulphur or

50 ppm diesel.

Of course, thenewOutbackdiesel

CVT also features Subarus famous

SymmetricalAll-WheelDrivesys-

tem splitting the power symmetri-

cally between both the front and

rear axles as well as the left and

right sides of the carmeans the new

OutbackdieselCVToffersanentire-

ly confidence-inspiring driving ex-

perience, no matter what the road

conditions. Coupled to a linear

steering feel andminimal body roll,

the Outback diesel CVTs on-road

manners are exemplary.

Transmission (CVT) with Adap-

tive Transmission Control which

does duty in many other Subaru

models including the petrol-pow-

ered Outback, the all-new Forester

and the XV, has been mated to the

Boxer diesel engine for the very

first time in the newOutback diesel

CVT and with much significance,

too. Not only does the infinite flexi-

bility of CVT allow for optimal pow-

er delivery, tailored and on demand

for the exact requirements of the

driver and the driving conditions,

but its application to a diesel engine

meansanoverall stress-freedriving

experience. Thanks inno small part

to the Boxer diesels peak torque

of 350 Nm being available at such

low rpm (from 1 800), the Outback

diesel CVT presents a calm and re-

laxing driving experience like no

other.And,whenthemoodtakesthe

driver, twosteering-wheelmounted

gearshift paddles allow for fullman-

ual control of the transmission in a

seven-speed manual simulation

mode, which then mimics actual

gearchanges forasportydrivingex-

perience.

Matching the high levels of safety

is a comprehensive list of standard-

fitment equipment which not only

makes the new Outback diesel CVT

a joy to livewith, but alsohighlights

its value for money. Included as

standard are 17-inch alloy wheels

and a full-size spare, a powered sun-

roof, roof rails, HID xenon head-

lights, leather upholstery, an 8-way

electrically-adjustable drivers

seat, dual-zone automatic climate

control with rear ventilation, key-

less entry and push-button starting,

a multi-function, tilt- and reach-ad-

justable leather-bound steering

wheel, cruise control, an electronic

handbrake, split-folding rear seats

formation display screen, a premi-

um audio system with six speakers

and radio, CD, auxiliary, MP3 and

USB support, as well as Bluetooth

dio streaming .

The new Subaru Outback 2.0D

Premium Lineartronic is now

available in eight striking colours

and retails for R 459 000 including

Chevrolet Spark LS:

theamusing friend

HANJO STIER

Id like you tomeet a new friend

of mine. Hes fun, friendly, kin-

da new in town, wears a blue

coat and thanks to the random

collection of letters on his East-

ern Cape number plate, I nick-

named him Fayzel. His official

name is Spark LS and you can

find him in your nearest

Chevrolet dealership.

The Spark rangewas apparently

updated a few months ago and

holds five models. Campus is

student fodder for R106 100, a regu-

lar Spark starts at R113 600, the

more luxurious Fayzel Spark LS

costs R123 000, an even posher

SparkLTrequiresR136 500and the

panel-van Pronto is just

R101 500.

Pronto is poverty spec, but Cam-

pus comes with power steering,

air-con, radio preparation, two

airbags, central locking and ABS/

EBD brakes. The regular Spark

tops that with 60/40 folding rear

seats, ISOFIX anchors, odometer,

radio, two speakers, remote cen-

tral locking, alarm, immobiliser

and optional alloys.

Our LS model uses the extra

R9 400 to give you front powerwin-

dows, height-adjustable multi-

function steering wheel, powered

and heated exterior mirrors, front

fog lights, some exterior colour

coding and shiny trim, 14-inch al-

loywheels, auto-locking doors and

two more speakers.

The audio systems quality is de-

cent and we enjoyed the multiple

input options. Next to radio and

CD, a Spark (except Campus and

Pronto) can reproduce noise from

Aux or USB sockets with mp3 and

ipod capabilities. The button lay-

out and basic steering controls

take some getting used to though.

My six foot plus frame had no

major problems piloting Fayzel.

Occasionally my left knee would

touch the dashboard and I

wouldve liked the steering wheel

to be reach-adjustable as well.

Rear space is a little less but the

170 dm boot easily swallowed the

six bags of a big weekly shopping

spree.

Although weight, altitude and

heat will unravel the Sparks per-

formance, I was impressed by the

vocal antics of the 1,206 cc 16-valve

petrol four-cylinder. It stems

60 kW (82 hp) or 108 Nm against a

kerb weight of 1 355 kg to reach

100km/h in 13,3 seconds (we hit

12.5) and a top speed of 164 km/h.

Claimed average fuel consump-

tion is 5,4 F/100 kmwith 129g CO2/

kmandwe can confirm that Fayzel

wasquite economicalwith the con-

tents of his 35 F tank. Thanks to

lightweighting of pedals and steer-

ing, hewas adelight to dart around

town with except at crawling

speeds throttle take-up is a bit

sharp.

High speeds, cross winds and

vigorous cornering are not his

forte, confirming city car creden-

tials. The rear suspension can get

choppy, but follows safe, progres-

sive under-steer beyond the im-

pressive grip limits. Sparks dont

have traction or stability control;

they wouldnt be used very often.

Rushing to the far reaches of the

Boland for a meeting, Fayzel put

up with quite a bit of abuse in the

middle of a nasty cold front. On

this trip I grew to lovehis combina-

tion of basic technology, peppy en-

gine and lively handling. Theres

something refreshing and amus-

ing about a simple, energetic little

car. Other things our new friend

acedwere a bit of gravel road, Cape

Towns afternoon traffic and tight

parking spots.

The instruments are slightly

weird, the headlights high beam

is acceptable and the Spark comes

with a 5-year/120 000 kmwarranty

and roadside assistance; the 3-

year/60 000 km service plan is op-

tional.

Your final purchasing decision

will boil down to many things and

I believe the funky and chunky

Chevy Spark offers good value

with its various models.

If you, too, would like to have a

friend like Fayzel, order a Spark

LS in Vector Blue. Eastern Cape

plates are not included.

Lexus IS: 1,6millionkilometresof testing

QUICKPIC

Before the all-new Lexus IS ar-

rives in South Africa in July, it

has already accumulated over

1,6 millionkilometresof testing

and development enough kilo-

metres for two return trips to

the moon.

At the heart of the IS develop-

ment process was the desire to en-

sure that all IS models maintained

their outstanding dynamic capa-

bilities while increasing overall

space and comfort.

Testing of the all-new IS took

placeon the road, trackand labora-

tory with the IS tested to breaking

point in the ice and snow of the

northern hemisphere, the heat of

the southern hemisphere, along

with the gruelling test bed of cir-

cuits such as the Nrburgring in

Germany andFuji Speedway in Ja-

pan.

Key to attaining the fun to

drive characteristics of the new

IS was a new development process

that saw driving dynamics priori-

tised over all other functions, ex-

plained ISChief Engineer, Junichi

Furuyama.

The conventional approach to

development would involve devel-

oping each of the individual as-

pects with fun to drive as the out-

come, much like a pyramid would

be built by first constructing the

foundation and then proceeding to

build up from there, he said.

The problem with this ap-

proach is that there is no knowing

whether it will result in achieving

a fun to drive experience.

In contrast, development of the

new IS flipped this process on its

head.

It called for first establishing

the pleasurable driving experi-

ence users will sense as the peak

of the pyramid, and then develop-

ing the individual performance el-

ements to support it, Mr Furu-

yama said.

The process resulted in the adop-

tion of new body strengthening

techniques, including laser screw

weld and body bonding (25 metres

of which is contained in the new

IS), and a suspension system that

delivers a 20% increase in roll ri-

gidity.

The last word belongs to Calvyn

Hamman, SeniorVice President of

Sales andMarketing: Get up close

and personal with the third-gener-

ation IS and the bold new design

direction, especially the brands

signature spindle grille, is strik-

ingly evident.

The biggest surprise, though, is

just how rewarding the on-the-

road experience is. This is a driv-

ers car bar none!

FRANS LE ROUX

I intend writing something posi-

tive about the Italians. I wont

mention their Prime Minister

once, nor will I discuss the ongo-

ing unrest in their country.

After testing the Fiat 500 Abarth

Iwould like towrite something fun,

happy and exciting about the pas-

sionate Italians.

For those of you who are not fa-

miliar with Abarth (and my guess

is there aremany) it is Fiats hi-per-

formance models. You could, to a

certain extent, compare Abarth to

AMG of Mercedes and M- of BMW.

Its the sort of car that is sportier

anddemands thedrivers attention.

Currentlyonsale inSouthAfrica,

you can buy three Abarth models,

two ofwhich can be found in the 500

shape and one in the Punto.

I recently had the privilege of

driving the 500 Abarth for a week-

end, andboy, did I enjoy it! Visually

onewouldnever think that this tiny

city car is capable of leaving many

sportier (and more expensive cars)

behind. For the trained eye, the

changes from the standard 500 are

not subtle at all. But for the pe-

destrian or general public, this

may just look like a zooped-up

500.

That is until one has a closer

look that you realize there is

more to this car than meets the

eye. In the front a lowscoop,wid-

ened wheel arches and xenon

headlights catch the eye. The

wheels are splendid, all 17 inch-

es of them. The Abarth is low-

ered and with low profile tyres

you feel every stone, rock or

bump on the road. At the back,

things look even more serious

with a diffuser and twin chrome

exhausts.

Step inside and youre greeted

by more surprises. Sport seats,

a thick flat-bottomed steering

wheel, aluminium pedals and a

shift light on the dashboard. Fiat

goes a little furtherwith their at-

tention to detail and they colour

your dashboard the same as the ex-

terior of your car. Finished with a

gloss, the black inside my Abarth

looked awesome. Retro stainless-

steel door handles are a nice touch.

The speedo and rev counter is rath-

er confusing at the start, but then

you do get use to them. One switch

I need to mention is the red SPORT

button. Once pressed, maximum

fun is had. All the torque and rum-

bling exhaust notes are available.

Combine this with a large red shift-

light and you briefly feel like a For-

mula 1 driver.

Fromaperformancepointofview

the little Fiat does not disappoint.

A punchy 1.4 Turbo is fitted with

power rated at 99 kW and 206 Nm of

torque.

These figures are surenot to blow

you away, but keep inmind that 500

weighs a little over a ton. I was sur-

prised by theway the little Abar-

th pulled.With each gear, the 500

leapt forward, pushing me back

in my seat. Acceleration, as ex-

pected, is brilliant.

The Abarth gets from stand-

still to 100 km/h in 7,9 seconds

and runs out of puff at 207 km/h.

When it comes to handling,

think of the Abarth as a go-cart.

With a wheel placed on each of

the corners of the car, the way

the500goesaroundcorners is ex-

emplary.

The steering feedback is di-

rect. When approaching a cor-

ner, you simple select your gear

and choose a line while the car

takes care of the rest.

In the super-mini category

there are only two main rivals.

The 500 Abarth and the illustri-

ous Mini Cooper S fight it out in

a two-horse race.

At R247 990 the Fiat is almost

R50 000cheaper thantheequivalent

Mini. For the same amount of fun,

you could opt for the Abarth which

is also way more exclusive.

The Fiat has a 3- year/100 000 km

warranty, accompanied by a com-

prehensive maintenance plan.

The Fiat 500 Abarth was splendid. I enjoyed its brave little engine and the

lovely exhaust notes. PHOTO: FRANS LE ROUX
