 And a very warm welcome back to your Feel Good Breakfast show expresso on S.A.B.C.3. Thank you once again for joining us. Now this week is all about viewing properties that could end up being the property that you choose to buy. Now many first time buyers are either single individuals or couples who want to live close to work in the city centre. So today we're looking at a beautiful apartment in Santon, Johannesburg. With so much to consider when buying your first home, we've decided to take a closer look at different types of properties and check to professionals to find out what makes a property a good purchase. Many first time buyers are single individuals or couples who want to live close to work in the city centre. An apartment in Santon is a great example of a potential first property. Thank you. Oh this looks great. Ben is here while I'm on the hunt to buy my very first property and this penthouse looks great. I tend to agree with you, this is one of the better ones. Beautiful property right down your alley. I think it's quite modern, quite timeless. The property is situated in Santon as you know, heart of Santon CBD, the big shopping centres and obviously those nice restaurants that the area also gives you. What would you say are the key features of this penthouse that would best suit a first time buyer? One of the nice features of this property is that it's emigrating and selling the property fully furnished. So for you, it's literally I give you the key and you move in. We know you're quite busy and on the move all the time. So first big thing is it's luck up and go. The building offers high level-class security downstairs means that you know that you'll be safe when you're here and your belongings will be safe when you're not. The building's got Wi-Fi, fibre actually into the building, a beautiful clubhouse downstairs with a nice sparkling pool. A bit of advice that I always like to give first time buyers like yourself is go out and choose your neighbourhood. You can always pick a property later because you can redo a bathroom or relay a garden. But with a neighbourhood you can never redo another community, the restaurants, the whole feeling and the vibe of the property or the area that you want. So quite important pick your neighbourhood first. Can you take me through the layout of this penthouse? It's an open-plan layout as you can see which is quite nice. It maximises your living area, your living space. You've got open space or open area kitchen. So it's quite nice if you're entertaining your friends or your guests. They can sit in your dining room and you don't feel left out when you're busy cooking in the kitchen. Beautiful microwave, dishwasher, washing machine, already right there for you. You've got beautiful views out here. So as we walk through the property let me show you. And there's your beautiful view of Santon City Escape. You've got the JC over there, Santon City on your doorstep. The nice thing about the apartment is the proximity to Khowtrain. Also just a brief walk away. And then obviously if you look back your spiral staircase leading upstairs to your main bedroom, on-suite bathroom, walk-in closet. But let me go show you. Let's go. Yes Brett, so this is your upstairs. You can see your main bedroom. Lovely leading onto your deep-soaked bath. Beautiful for those evenings where that you open your curtains and look across that cityscape we were talking about. Air-conditioned upstairs along with your walk-in closet. Ben, why would you say that this is a good investment for me? Brett, for yourself as an executive the property will always remain or I feel should always remain as part of your portfolio. Not something that you want to get rid of, but rather rent out. Santon has got an amazing rental market at this point in time where you can rent out your property and afford to live in your second home as you upgrade and go through your portfolio in life. Lastly, what advice do you have for other first-time buyers? Go out, find yourself a good agent, a neighbouring expert that takes interest in your personal life. They need to know you, to know how to place you in a certain property. Also, if you've looked at the property during the course of the day, go back at night, ask your agent. Let me go have a look at it in the evening because obviously the area does change quite a bit when you see it at night.
