Interesting fact for the month of May: The month May was named for Maia, the Greek goddess of fertility.
Generally it has been warm and dry with the days getting shorter and temperature cooling as we move closer to winter. It is almost time to bring out the warm clothing and to pull chairs closer to the fire!
One again this month’s newsletter is packed with great articles, competition prizes, and specials, all of which are thanks to our regular contributors.

EARLY SETTLEMENT OF THE MORTGAGE LOAN
Are homeowners penalised for early settlement of the mortgage loan?
When a bonded property is sold, transfer to the new owner may only proceed once the seller has settled the mortgage loan with the bank and the bond itself is cancelled in the deeds office. Read more here
