    100%, my brother.

    Another word of advice for the newbies ...... although a good source of work, if at all possible, steer well clear of estate agents and conveyencers and the business of COC issuing for property transfers.

    Leave it to the big boys, unless you deal directly with the seller on a cash basis, which is usually not the norm.

    No1. You don't know when you gonna be paid.

    No2. You don't know if you gonna be paid.

    No3. Giving the attorney whose doing the transfer, credit, is illegal, unless you are a registered credit provider.

    Should the deal fall through and go sour, the same attorney who accepted credit from you, without batting an eyelid, will tell you that you should not have provided credit as you are not registered to do so.

    They are snakes.

    It does not help making R1000 per job on 4 jobs and then lose R4000 on the fifth job. You have then done 5 jobs for free.

    Use it, don't use it. Been there, done that.

    Good advice there, Blurock.
