Having a legally binding will, provides clarity and keeps the peace.<br></p> | <p>The City’s Mayoral Committee Member for Human Settlements, Councillor Malusi Booi and officials in the Human Settlements Directorate helped to assist first-time homeowners in Fisantekraal on Saturday, 17 September. <br></p><div>‘Education is very important for our first-time homeowners. It is not only empowering but it provides a further measure of redress. Practical considerations of homeownership are so important, aspects such as maintenance, how to draw up a will and household budgeting and management are vital to beneficiaries. We thank the Western Cape Government for its wills drive and City officials too who dedicate many weekends and after-hours to ensure that beneficiaries are empowered not only with homeownership but the education that goes along with that,’ said Councillor Booi. <br></div><p><strong><br>End</strong><br></p> | 2022-09-16T22:00:00Z | GP0|#1d539e44-7c8c-4646-887d-386dc1d95d70;L0|#01d539e44-7c8c-4646-887d-386dc1d95d70|City news;GTSet|#62efe227-07aa-45e7-944c-ceebacca891d | | | | | GP0|#0d8b7293-a214-43fa-80da-d843dd6f8e82;L0|#00d8b7293-a214-43fa-80da-d843dd6f8e82|human settlements;GTSet|#2e3de6c1-9951-4747-8f53-470629a399bb;GP0|#f98e5b48-1778-4284-8412-379f44f96d47;L0|#0f98e5b48-1778-4284-8412-379f44f96d47|education;GTSet|#2e3de6c1-9951-4747-8f53-470629a399bb | 1 | | | | | | | | | | | 0 |
