THE BRIDGE - AFFORDABILITY, LIFESTYLE AND LOCATION
Category Development News
All blocks of The Bridge apartments in Kwamashu are complete - every apartment is ready! Friends and neighbours are connecting, and as new owner Andiswa Dlamini says, "It's amazing, amazing - neat, clean, safe." She laughs, "It's giving Umhlanga vibes!" And of course, the shopping...
Next door, the refurbished Bridge City Mall is looking spic & span, and is fully operational. Life at The Bridge is good!
Wakefields Real Estate property practitioner Sibusisiwe Thabede speaks regularly to her clients who've moved in: "They're very, very happy. The Bridge is the perfect location for them, because it's close to the Mall, a state-of-the-art hospital, the police station, schools and public transport - a number of them have primarily chosen to live here because they're employed in those sectors. Work is on their doorstep."
Thabede's colleague from Wakefields Westville, Ndumiso Memela concurs about the convenient location, but equally: "It's very appealing for a first-time homeowner to move into a brand-new unit in mint condition. Nothing to be done." Each modern apartment has a solar-powered geyser, built-in stove with extractor fan, and space for your washing machine. It has tiled flooring and granite tops - it's stylish and compact, plus has the convenience of prepaid electricity. Ndumiso adds, "Of course, one of the stand-out features which have appealed to my buyers is the great security. It's something which every owner today really values."
The Bridge has prioritised security - from ClearVu fencing and electric fencing to biometric fingerprinting, controlled access, and your own apartment security gate - and for prospective buyers, it certainly ticks an important box.
Affordability of course, is another drawcard, and The Bridge has an innovative finance option, not found elsewhere. Affordability comes in two different ways: a good selling price, and a different pricing model - prospective buyers are given more opportunities to qualify for a home loan than normal. Appointed as the real estate agency of The Bridge, Wakefields has equipped their property practitioners with all the know-how on financing and every other aspect of the transaction, so you, as a buyer, can relax and let the consultants walk and talk you through it...just as easily as they'll take you through the Show Unit. They're right there on site, so it couldn't be simpler. A steady stream of singles and couples - most under 40 - are visiting the unit to get the feel of these airy two-bedroomed, one bathroom, one parking sectional title apartments.
Senzo Msomi is a Wakefields property practitioner based in Phoenix, and he's currently assisting prospective buyers at The Bridge through the application and purchase process. His sales there have been largely to teachers and others who work in the public sector, he says: "My clients have all been drawn to the fresh, new look and feel of The Bridge. There's something so appealing about moving into a brand-new home with well-kept grounds and surrounds, plus the comforting 24-hour security."
Two thirds of The Bridge apartments are sold...sale agreements are being signed daily. The opportunity to own your first home in Kwamashu, is right now. Wakefields property practitioners are on hand to explain it all to you - pay them a visit, and fall in love with an apartment, the lifestyle and the community.
