Edition 11 of 2004, Friday 26 March 2004 Dear Reader, This week we place the focus on "trend spotting" at the 30th Nederburg Auction that is coming up next week and indeed not be missed. "The 30th Nederburg Auction of Fine South African Wines will prove a litmus test for market interest in the Cape's big red blends. Making up almost 25% of all wines going under the hammer on 2/3 April 2004, the prices fetched by flagship red blends will be in the spotlight at this year's landmark event. The selling of vintages from the 1990's by inter alia Veenwouden, Vergelegen, Rust en Vrede and Stellenzicht are likely to set record prices. Or could deflationary trends in current wine prices impact on rare vintages too?" says Graham Howe We stay with the "wines" and take a look at architecture in
the Cape Winelands and. We also take a stop in STELLENBOCH, a town
for all seasons. You can continue your journey by clicking on the link
at the bottom of the article. Enjoy! "Home is where the heart is." I just love this statement and had to share it with you the reader and under Have Fun this week. We invite you the reader to take part in our CyberProp.com newsletter. Should have any interesting article, a town you would like us to focus on or even a viewpoint that you would like to share with us, contact us at news@cyberprop.com Cyberprop greetings!

| >> Check your sectional title rule! |
|
There are many owners or tenants of sectional title units that are not
aware of the rules of their particular complex. Says Anthony van

Thinking place - What makes a home a home? What defines a home?

But for all of us, the home is sacred space and a major influence in our lives. We create our home as a reflection of who we are and what we dream, and as a place for nurturing and rejuvenation. Your home reflects both the life you have lived and the one you want to live... |
