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).
We reserve the right to withdraw the offer of sale of a property to a successful bidder if:- the defaulting mortgagor makes acceptable arrangements to settle the outstanding payments on his/her account, before the successful bidder pays the required deposit; the successful bidder fails to provide required documents within the established time-lines, or the information and contents provided in the documents presented do not meet established standards. the successful bidder is unable to satisfy payment of all costs to complete the sale; N.B. We will allow any bidder to re-bid on the same, as well as any other property, if the property is subsequently re-listed for sale by Private Treaty.
Bids are opened twice per month, usually on the second and fourth Thursday of each month.
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.
Private Treaty Sale is one of the methods used by financial institutions such as the NHT, to legally recover outstanding mortgage loans in default, and which are secured by properties such as residential homes.
This facility is available to a contributor, whose income cannot afford the full purchase price of a scheme unit. Under this arrangement, the NHT will defer payment of up to 40% of the cost of the unit.
The NHT may offer a successful applicant, with or without a co-applicant, a short-term Lease, not exceeding three (3) years. The Lessee has the option to purchase the Unit at its original selling price, at anytime during the Lease period.
