Application of the National Credit Act to property instalment sale agreements
09 November 2016
A buyer is interested in buying my flat. Her bank is not prepared to give her a loan because she... is paying off a few personal loans, but she is prepared to enter into an instalment sale agreement to pay the purchase price in instalments over a period of time, much like a rental. I like the idea of at least getting a monthly income, but I am worried whether I can do this and charge interest on the instalments, particularly as it will take a few years for her to pay the price in full?
