and marketing manager of Somer-setLakes, thenewproducthasbeenspecifically designed to help meetthe growing demand for affordable,quality housing in the popularSomerset West area.“We’ve been inundated with re-

quests from buyers looking forhouses,” Harris said. “People wantfreestanding homes with gardens,views and security, in close prox-imity to the centre of SomersetWest, and that’s exactly what ourlatest product at Somerset Lakeshas to offer.”Designed by Schabort Associates

Architects, the new developmentphase is located alongside the six-hectare lake that gives the estate itsname. “This unique feature is ahuge attraction,” Harris comment-ed. “It’s ideal for swimming, canoe-ing, sailing, windsurfing and fish-

ing, and home to a rich variety ofwaterbirds.Amagnificent commu-nity clubhouse on the shores of thelake, The SummerClub (whichwasoriginally the name of thewhole es-tate) will enhance the appeal of thisfantastic recreational asset, pro-viding residents with play areas,boat sheds, a sandy white beach,and a swimmingpool anddeck areawith stunning views of False Bayand the Hottentots Holland moun-tains.”The developers, Omwieco (Pty)

Ltd, a consortium of highly experi-enced development professionalsbacked by financial giant Investec,havedevotedno less than40%of theestate’s total area to green, openspace for the recreation of resi-dents. This includes the lakes andother water features, a mature for-est of stone pine trees, landscapedparks and gardens, and kilometresofwalking trails andmountain bik-ing tracks.An indigenous fynbos nursery

has been established on the estate,which was recently awarded the

prized 2014 SALI Gold Award forlandscape design by the SouthAfri-can Landscapers Institute.“No expense has been spared to

implement themost technically ad-vanced security system at Somer-set Lakes,” said Harris. These in-cluded electrified perimeter fenc-ing with 70 high-definitionsurveillance cameras, which aremonitored around the clock fromthe hi-tech guardhouse, 24-hourguarding and patrols, and an on-site rapid response team. Other ad-vanced features include biometricfingerprint access control.All homes in the estate will be

hardwired with fibre-optic cablingfor superfast internet access, DStvand VOIP telephone connectivity,

which will allow free telephonecalls within the estate.A Curro Castle School is being

constructed on the estate and is dueto open its doors in 2015.Convenient access to the Somer-

set West village has been providedby the developers through theR16 million construction of Reun-ionDrive, which links themain en-trance of Somerset Lakes to SirLowry’s Pass Village Road under aspecially constructed railwaybridge.Just a few hundred metres from

this entrance, an upmarket newshopping centre is now under con-struction, where Checkers, Wool-worths Foods andClickswill be theanchor tenants.

How to ensure that you never sell belowmarket valueThe biggest concern a propertyseller has is that they sell for lessthan they should.

And so, in order to prevent this,manysellerspricetoohigh.Wedis-cussedthenegative impactofover-pricing last week – but it generallymeans that the wrong buyers areattracted to the property – buyersthat expect more for their money.They see it’s overpriced and theyvote with their feet by moving onand buying elsewhere.

Sohowdoyouavoidoverpricingand at the same time ensure youdon’t sell for less than you should?

It’s simple: you remove pricefrom the equation. It’s called mar-keting without a price.

When you market “with a price”you attract buyers to your proper-ty based on the price.

When you market “without aprice” you attract buyers to thepropertybasedonwhattheproper-ty offers.

So how will a buyer know whatto offer?

Buyers shop around and theyknow what properties are worth.They will weigh up the benefits ofthe property and, in comparison toother properties that are on themarket or that have sold, they willdetermine what it’s worth.

The benefit of marketing with-out a price is that the buyer willdecidewhattooffer.Whentheyare

in competition with other buyersfor a property they will be motivat-ed to make their best offer – whichmay even be more than you expectto get.

Typical examples of marketing“without a price” are the auctionand For Sale by Tender methods.In both cases buyers are attractedto the property for what it offers.When buyers compete with otherbuyerstheywillmaketheirbestof-fer, not their lowest offer.

Modern marketing strategiesensureapropertysellerenjoysout-standing buyer enquiry and sellsfor the most the market will pay.

These “no price” marketingstrategies have been perfected in

other parts ofthe world, suchas Australiaand New Zea-land – the homeof HarcourtsReal Estate.

In both thesemarkets it isvery common,especially in astrengthening market such as theone we’re in, for a property to sellfor much more than the sellersthought it would.

It makes a refreshing change fora seller to be surprised by howmuch their property sells for in-stead of how little it sells for.

AlfaRomeo4C ishereQUICKPIC

Extraordinary performance,uniquehandling, extremeaerody-namics and design that takes upthe stylistic features of the AlfaRomeo tradition. This in brief isthe newAlfa Romeo 4C, a drivingmachine without compromisethatbeckonsdrivers to take to theroad or track to experience thethrill of driving it.

TheAlfaRomeo4C is a lightweightcar where everything has been de-signed to provide total driving pleas-ure.Thatsameessentialityshapeditsdesign. The car expresses a “naturalbeauty” that results from a perfectblendof function and form. Its layoutand size immediately brings one ofthe most beautiful coupés of all timeto mind, the Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale.Like the legendary 33 Stradale, the

4C is designed to meet extreme me-chanical and functional require-ments. Its body aerodynamically“covers” the engine and chassiswithclean and essential surfaces.DesignedbyAlfaRomeoengineers

and built at the Maserati plant inModena, this captivating coupé withtwo racing bucket seats uses materi-als and design solutions like carbon,aluminium, and rear-wheel drive de-rivedfromthe8CCompetizionealongwith technologies fromAlfaRomeo’s

latest models, all thoroughly revisedto maximise the new car’s sportingappeal. Proof of that lies in the new1750 Turbo Petrol engine with directinjection and aluminium block, thesophisticated latest-generation “AlfaTCT” dry twin-clutch automatictransmission and theAlfaDNAdriv-ingmodeselectorwiththebrand-newRace mode.A length of approximately 4m and

Alfa. Its sports car soul createsunique driving sensations, both onthe road and when racing, where ve-locity and transverse accelerationsoffer even themost expert driver un-rivalled driving thrills: from 0 to 100km/hinjust4,5secondsflat,258km/htop speed, deceleration peaks in therange of 1,2 g and lateral accelerationpeaks over 1,1 g. All this is alsoachievedwith a balancedweight dis-tribution, with 40% on the front axleand 60% on the rear.If these figures attest to the out-

standing performance and dynamicqualities of the 4C, there is one char-acteristic enduringly connected to

every Alfa Romeo: ease in recognis-ingoneofthebrand’smodelsthroughother senses.Not only is it eye-catch-ing, but the sound of the engine hasalso been emphasised with low fre-quencies and the classic roar of theexhaust.Inthesamewayithasbeenstudied

with particular attention paid to anenveloping seat design so the car canbe “felt”. “Body” perceptions are feltinside and even more so – with anaddedthrill –at thewheel.Thebrake,for example, can bemodulated whenloaded to get the necessary feedbackeven in themost demanding brakingsituations. Steering, which has toconvey as much “feel” as possible, isunassisted, progressive and direct,andtheaccelerator isreadytohandleexits fromcurveswithasmuchaccel-eration as possible.The 4C marks the launch of Alfa

Romeo’s global growth plan that,along with future models, is offeredasaglobalbrandthatcompetes in theheart of the Premium market. Thereason for developing synergieswiththe Premium brands of the Fiat-ChryslerGroup,andMaserati inpar-ticular,whichadds the strengthof itshistory, its ability to innovate and itsfame the world over. So in this sensetheAlfaRomeo 4C supercar is a sym-bolic productwithanextremelyhighlevel of quality and technological re-finement that embodies the deepest

values of the Alfa Romeo brand.Theannualproductionofthe4CAl-

faRomeoonthemajorworldmarketsis limited to only 3 500 units.The new “4 cylinder” 1750 Turbo
