You will be required to pay the difference between the bid amount and the maximum loan entitlement. This is also subject to your ability to repay the loan. You must provide evidence that you can pay this shortfall before the sale/purchase processes can commence.
There will be some specific legal fees which you will be required to pay to enable us to not only register your name(s) on the Title as owner(s) of the property, but also the mortgage loan. These fees are approximately 3% of the sale price, and represent half costs for stamp duty and registration. (N.B. The 3% is based on the Stamp Commissioner’s assessment of the value of the property, and the cost to register the mortgage loan may vary depending on the Institution from which you will be obtaining the loan)
Yes, provided that you can satisfy the requirements.
Vacant possession is not guaranteed. If the unit is still occupied by the previous owner(s) or is tenanted, upon receipt of Letters of Possession from the Trust, you will be responsible for ensuring that the property becomes vacant by serving a notice to quit on the occupants, and pursuing Court action for recovery of possession.
We cannot give you permission to access the property, however, if the occupant(s) is/are willing to allow you access to any area of the property, this is done at his/her own discretion. The properties are sold on an “as is” basis, therefore if upon inspection, any damage is identified, we do not accept responsibility for same.
We will give priority to “Cash purchase” for these properties; however, mortgage loans will be provided to qualified contributors provided that when the bids/ letters are being submitted, the persons who are interested in purchasing the properties do the following: indicate that they agree to purchase the property even though there is no Registered Title; provide proof of how the property will be purchased ( i.e by cash, or by getting a loan from a financial/mortgage institution).

No. You are required to send a new letter/bid with the correct information.
Your bid will be rejected if: you do not state your name, and did not sign the letter (if your bid was typed); you do not state the exact address of the property you wish to purchase; you state a range of figures ( e.g $1m to $ 2m) for your bid sum instead of one amount; the property is not on the list of properties which the Trust is selling by Private Treaty; words and figures in your bid letter do not agree; Real Estate Agents who are making bids on behalf of bidders, do not attach a signed copy of the bid from the bidders; when the bid/letter is opened, the information does not clearly indicate that a bid is being made on a property. a higher bid is received from another person. your proof of deposit and mortgage financing documents did not accompany your bid letter; a certified Power of Attorney document giving authorisation for your Agent/Representative to make a bid on your behalf is not received.
If the bid is considered to be acceptable, and the Private Treaty Committee has approved sale of the property to a successful bidder, the successful bidder will receive a telephone call to firstly indicate the success of his/her bid, and advised that the letter of approval and other offer conditions should be collected from the NHT's office within two (2) working days of receipt of the approval. The unsuccessful bidder will be sent a letter, by mail, advising of the status of his/her bid, within five (5) working days of receipt of approval. The bidder whose bid was disqualified will be sent a letter, by mail, advising of the status of his/her bid, within the same time-line. N.B. If a sale is not approved, the NHT will continue to invite interested persons to make offers to purchase the property. We would appreciate if this request is given urgent attention, in keeping with a recommendation made by our internal auditors.
Bids are opened twice per month, usually on the second and fourth Thursday of each month.
