Property investment has always been popular in South Africa, with many people choosing to invest in rental property. The appeal of this type of investment is largely due to the potential for capital growth and rental income. By carefully selecting the right property and managing it effectively, investors can enjoy significant returns on their investment.

There are a lot of South Africans who would like to buy an investment property, but the qualifying criteria for getting a bond is keeping many of them out of the market. Even those who do meet the income requirements face risks, as their entire investment will be exposed to one property in one location. This can be a big risk, as anything could happen to that one property and they would lose everything.

With EasyProperties, you can invest in property on your terms — all the benefits of a diversified portfolio, with none of the hassle of paperwork or admin. All you have to do is visit the EasyProperties website and pick an investment that suits your needs.

EasyProperties is a juristic representative of First World Trader (Pty) Ltd t/a EasyEquities which is an authorized Financial Services Provider (FSP number 22588). All trades on the EasyProperties platform are subject to the legal terms and conditions to which you agree to be bound. The EasyProperties platform enables users to invest in securities which includes whole shares and fractional share rights (FSRs). EasyProperties acts an agent for the issue of whole shares, where the investor is the registered owner of those shares, entitled to dividends, participation in corporate actions and all the economic benefits and risks associated with share ownership.

In respect of FSRs, EasyEquities acts as principal to a contract for difference issued to the investor, where the investor will have a contractual claim against EasyEquities to the economic benefits and risks associated with share ownership (price movements and dividends) without having ownership rights in the underlying share. Fractional share rights (FSRs) which are issued through a contract for difference, are an over the counter derivative. Unlike whole shares, FSRs do not carry any voting rights. As the investor makes further investments in FSRs and ultimately ends up with a whole share, the contract for difference is closed out and ownership whole share is delivered to the investor.
