Trust vs Company vs Joint Ownership in South Africa

Trust vs Company vs Joint Ownership in South Africa

Joint property ownership is becoming more popular in South Africa, but many buyers still feel unsure about the best way to structure it. Should you buy in your own names? Form a company? Or go the trust route?


In this episode we break each option down in plain language. We cover everything from decision making powers to bond approvals to liability risks. You will also hear how I personally use all three structures for different purposes in my portfolio.


If you have ever wondered what really happens when co owners cannot agree, when someone stops paying or when a partner passes away, this video will give you the clarity you need.
