The Office of the Deputy Prime Minister said house price inflation slowed to an annual rate of 6.0 percent in May from 6.9 percent in April. This was the lowest since the fourth quarter of 2001, the ODPM said. |

Supplied by Dave Welmans www.thepropertygame.co.za Hot on the heels of my article last week about why it is still better to buy than rent, the Erwin Rode website and July newsletter said the following in their 5 July article: "If we weren't so emotional about our homes, the best financial decision for us to make at a time like now when real house prices are near or at the top of the property cycle, is to sell and rent, and to buy again when house prices are on the decline.

Janice Healing takes a peek into the world of the wealthy to see how they spend their spare cash. PEOPLE who have amassed great wealth are often in that envious position because they make sure their money works for them. Once they achieve a certain net asset value, they do not simply let their money sit in a bank and earn interest, they invest it wisely to make even more. So where are they putting their spare cash?

 Colour
Fantasizer has designed to be functional and intuitive to allow the user
to experiment with ideas, colours and techniques without the hassle, expense
and associated costs of applying them in reality before a decision is
made. Colour Fantasizer does not intend to effect a decision but provide
the user with all their colour options and effects made available to them.
The colours represented are intended to match as closely to the actual paint colour. The colours may vary due to printer, screen and other factors influencing the appearance and display. The onus lies on the user to check against the real colour and colour swatch. This software is intended to provide an indication of colour onto a surface so that the user may gain an idea to their colour, technique and other choices.

This
lovely little, rapidly growing town, forms the centre of the Whale Route.
A bustling cheerful Whale Festival, celebrating these trusting gentle
giants is held at the end of September each year. Once hunted almost to
extinction from this harbour, they now loll around within a stone’s
throw of the rocks where you can sit and commune with them for hours.
The most common species arriving here to calve and mate, are the Southern
Right Whales. They are amongst the biggest in the world, measuring 11-18
metres and weighing 30-80 tonnes. Don’t pass the quaint little museum
on the harbour’s edge - the whale song playing in the background
comes live from underwater microphones in the bay. Accommodation is plentiful
but gets quite booked up over public holidays and during festival time.
