The Basics of Estate Duty

When a person dies, they leave behind an estate which includes everything they own. Estate Duty is payable on the estate of every person who dies and whose nett estate is in excess of R3.5 million. It is charged at the rate of 25% if over R30 million. Currently, SARS is responsible for collecting the Estate Duty of a deceased person.

How does an estate get reported to SARS?

Even if Estate Duty does not apply to you, it is still necessary to inform SARS that the person is deceased. It is recommended that you consult with a legal expert when going through such as process.

How does Estate Duty work in relation to an inheritance?

All income received or accrued before the deceased’s death is taxable in the hands of the deceased up until the date of death, and will be administered by the executor or administrator acting as the deceased’s representative taxpayer.
After the date of death of a person, a new taxable entity comes into existence – the “estate”. The assets of the deceased will be held by the estate until the liquidation and distribution account has lain for inspection and become final under section 35(12) of the Administration of Estates Act, after which the assets will be either handed over to the heirs or delivered to the trustee of a trust estate.

Make Your Kitchen the Focal Point of Your Home

Consider the following tips to make your kitchen renovation project a success beyond your wildest dreams.

Eliminate the extra steps - Are there parts of your cooking process that annoy you because the spices are too far from the stove, the dishes are too far from the dishwasher when you unload or the pots and pans take too long to sort through for the right one for tonight's dinner? Move dishes and silverware so it is easier to unload the dishwasher and organise your pots and pans so they are close to the stove and easy to find. This is the perfect time to make those changes.

Arrange the appliances appropriately - It is wise to put the stove out of the main traffic area. Make sure the refrigerator is easy to get to for both the cook and anyone who is looking for a drink. In other words, make your kitchen accessible to everyone.

Choose a countertop that fits your expectations - There are certain materials that are going to stand up to wear and tear better than others. Likewise, there are countertops that will fit your budget and those that just don't make sense financially. The choice for kitchen countertop edges to match your selected design – whether that is traditional or contemporary – can be made easily with help from experienced professionals.

Don't let corners mess with your design - Every room has corners, and the kitchen is no exception. If you plan the layout appropriately, however, those corners can be an asset instead of an issue. Make sure the appliances are not stuck in the corner. Consider space-saving techniques or different storage solutions to make sure those cabinets can be optimally used.

Countertop space is important - It is a good idea to plan for 40cm of space on either side of the stove and refrigerator. It is also important to have space where items can be placed when removed from the microwave.

A little Thursday morning humour - Asking for a friend

A sweet grandmother telephoned St. Michael's Hospital. She timidly asked, "Is it possible to speak to someone who can tell me how a patient is doing?"

The operator said, "I'll be glad to help, dear. What's the name and room number?"
The grandmother, in her weak tremulous voice, said, "Norma Findlay, Room 302."

The operator replied, "Let me place you on hold while I check with her nurse."

After a few minutes the operator returned to the phone, "Oh, good news. Her nurse has told me that Norma is doing very well. Her blood pressure is fine; her blood work just came back as normal and her physician, Dr.Cohen, has scheduled her to be discharged on Tuesday."

The grandmother said, "Thank you. That's wonderful! I was so worried!"

The operator replied, "You're welcome. Is Norma your sister?"

The grandmother said, "No, I'm Norma Findlay in 302. No one tells me anything!"

Should you sell your investment property?

A decision to sell a long term asset such as a property can sometimes be a challenging decision for an investor, more so for a novice investor.

“Every property investor will be confronted with this question at some point in their investment journey. Therefore, knowing when to sell or hold your investment property is essential when building a portfolio,” says Praven Subbramoney, CEO of Private Bank Lending at FNB.

“Due to the long-term nature of the property investment journey, the general rule is that property should at least be held for five to ten years to allow the investor enough time to study market conditions and further assess the viability of their portfolio,” he adds.

Subbramoney unpacks some of the reasons why investors end up selling their properties:
Exit strategy – some investors venture into property having already developed an exit plan, which consists of selling the properties and using the funds for alternative business interests.

Recycling equity – this involves selling a property and using the equity to buy a better performing one. When going for this strategy, it is essential to take into account the costs involved in selling and acquiring a new property and whether the returns will be better in the long-term.

Poor performance – if a property fails to provide good rental yield and capital returns for at least 5 to 10 years, it may be considered to be performing poorly and eventually sold.

Diversification – property investors may sell some of their properties to unlock capital and diversify their financial risk into another asset class, such as listed equities.

Deteriorating neighbourhood – selling property due to unfavourable changes in the neighbourhood is common for inexperienced investors who did not conduct proper research when acquiring the property.
