Re: Simon’s Town Property valuations

johan horak — Sat, 06 Mar 2010 05:03:47 -0000

Let me answer the easy question because the others are not readily available. Properties in Simon's Town cell for between 10 and R12 000 per square meter. This is really cheap when compared to the city bowl and the Atlantic. In the city bowl we have a property selling for R26 000 per square, here in Simon's Town we have a better flat selling for R10 000.

Dr Shackleton indicated that ABSA reported a 5,2% increase in price of Cape Town property for 2009. Are the % increases available for 2006, 2007 and 2008? I think this should be a good first order indication what your property valuation should be. He mentioned in his letter increases between 10 - 15% for the period. Also, what is currently the average selling price per square meter dwelling for Simon's Town?

Re: Asbestos Exposure Prevention & Green Building Alternatives

I'm sure there are a lot of materials that can replace the use of asbestos. I think Mesothelioma Treatment Centers should try to create more brochures or advertisements to promote the use of other materials in the workplace. I'm sure they already do, but it seems like there needs to be another way of spreading the word.

Point taken. I will correct it as I am *blind* to that. Thanks for making the time to tell me that.

I appreciate that you're trying to write for SEO as well as people, but the overuse of the word "Simon's Town" in the above piece makes your copy very hard to read. Don't forget people have to read it too...

Thanks for sharing the link. This is the power of the internet. In the past these kind of stories would have died. But given the internet stories have a long tail and stories never die.

Michael and Jeannette

Thanks for the comment. Janine at Boulders was very much involved with the painting of the bus stop. Getting school kids to paint it. But then one "important man" came in the night and painted it all white.

The ST civic discuss this and did not want to get involve in the repainting of the bus stop.

I will support any effort and I am sure Janine would do the same.

Michael and Jeanette Aylward — Sat, 28 Nov 2009 07:51:45 -0000

We were unaware it was ONE individual who repainted the shelter white as we, and many we are sure, thought it was the City Council which did the dastardly act. The person involved should be made public and his/her name given to the police so that should a newly painted display be forthcoming and in turn once again be painted out he as a main suspect would face the arm of the law.
We very much hope the shelter is once again re painted by the previous artists..Especially in time for the celebrations of the 2010 World Cup.

Re: How Robert Kiyosaki created the sub-prime crisis

traore — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 17:31:58 -0000

The purpose and mission of Robert Kiyosaki is aimed to help people achieve economic success and stability. Robert Kiyosaki has a certain style in motivating, and his attitude towards money is defiant and pro-active. These values have found its way into his many books of the Rich Dad, Poor Dad series, and in their deliverance has helped many people understand how to make money work for them.
