Owner's reply
Nomvula, you’re so welcome! ❤️ Your kind words mean a great deal to us.

We know that selling a property can be an emotional journey, often filled with plans, hopes and important life changes. When unexpectedly high Clearance Figures threaten to delay a transfer or leave someone facing a much bigger bill than they anticipated, it can add so much unnecessary stress to an already significant moment.

That’s why it makes us genuinely happy to know we could help you quickly and take one more worry off your shoulders. Thank you for trusting us with something so important, Nomvula. 🙏🏼

And if someone close to you ever finds themselves in a similar situation, we’d be grateful if you shared our details with them. Sometimes, knowing that there’s someone who can help really can make all the difference.

Wishing you all the very best for this next chapter! ❤️🏡

Our Original Client Testimonials

Every word, as our clients shared it.

Original testimonials from clients and property professionals, preserved in their own words.

My friend was about to loose the property he bought on Auction because of high and incorrect Municipal charges which included 2 previous owners debts included on the Clearance Figures issued by Ekurhuleni. We tried our level best to resolve it ourselves to no avail until we came across New Ventures Consulting. The Clearance Figures were recalculated by New Ventures and the correct amount was paid. Before we employed New Ventures some officials tried to inject fear telling lies against these experts. Today we are a living testimony and their services is guaranteed. Thank you New Ventures and keep helping the ordinary people like us.

I have made use of many consultants who all promised me they would be able to help you. Only to run around and around. I was very reluctant to use your services however i am so glad i did – You guys saved me so much time and money and did what others have done in a fraction of the time. Thank you so much for all your help

Thanks for the good work and all the money you saved me. lol i can now go on that long-awaited holiday with all the extra money I saved.

Mr Livanos it has been such a pleasure working with you and your friendly staff, they have really made my work as the transferring attorney a breeze and the client is very grateful for saving 56.2%. I will recommend your services any day.

Thank you Mr Livanos and staff for helping me save almost 50% of the debt is was obligated to pay. Also thanks for always keeping me update and guiding me. Will be recommending you guys to all my friend and family. Wishing you all well.

New Ventures approach is straight forward and is time friendly. It is a great feeling to know that I have first rate professional help. Thank you guys for all your help.

New Ventures has been SUPERB. Their service is great and they respond very quickly and is by you side all the way. They will go above and beyond for you, as I have experienced for myself.
