@Lanliyah@shonapapi Ndeip makuruwani $9,500 to be on the safe side, the gp5 should land comfortablyThe usual landing cost is around $8,000 $8,500, but it's always wise to allow some extra margin. That's assuming you'll be handling the entire shipping process yourself, without involving a third party
@shonapapi π€£ that's what your friends are doing!
The vehicle lands at $9.5k, then they throw on a set of balloon tyres and suddenly it's being advertised as a "$13k machine!" ππ
At this rate, if they add a bull bar, spotlights, and a sticker pack, they'll be valuing it at $20k
@saddworldd999@antomukuwa The payment periods vary depending on the developer, but many offer terms ranging from 12 to 24 months maximum, allowing buyers to secure land and pay the balance over time.
@saddworldd999@antomukuwa Yes my Guy quite a number of them... Seeif /pam gold and you can verify this on there pages . also banks etc FBC ....These arrangements are not new and have been available in a number of developing suburbs for years. The payment periods vary depending on the developer
@vincent_hog@antomukuwa Yes, this is based on experience. And I do partially agree with you about the instability of our business and financial environment. very volatile market where high rewards come with equally high risks.
@saddworldd999@antomukuwa And are you even getting my point regarding what someone can do with US$10,000? My point is that there are several viable investment opportunities with that amount of money, rather than tying it all up in a questionable housing scheme.
@saddworldd999@antomukuwa That would absolutely be a scam. There is nothing called a housing installment plan in Zimbabwe that has consistently worked. Even some of those corporations, such as Grey Homes, tried to introduce similar schemes and ended up failing the people who invested in them.
@vincent_hog@antomukuwa Market research shows that many people Paground ground travel to China with as little as US$2,000 and still manage to bring back a decent amount of stock. So if you're working with US$8,000, that should tell you everything you need to know about the opportunities available
@vincent_hog@antomukuwa That would still leave US$4,000 from the original US$8,000 as backup capital or working funds for the business. The opportunity is there if one plans and budgets correctly.
@vincent_hog@antomukuwa Which means you are not doing your research properly. For your information, a trip to China can be done on a budget of around US$4,000 including flights, accommodation, and sourcing stock such as spare parts, cosmetics, electronics, and general goods. That would still leave US$4k
@antomukuwa To some people, yes and in a big way. With $10,000, one can start by purchasing a residential stand on instalments with a deposit of around $2,000, then use the remaining $8,000 to start a decent small business. If managed well, that business can generate income
@vincent_hog@antomukuwa Plenty baba If you're smart with your money... You could buy two small InDrive cars, import stock from China, start a wholesale business, or explore other opportunities. The key is being smart with how you invest the money.
@saddworldd999@antomukuwa Read it again..I was referring to a residential stand, not a house. Many major corporations and property developers are offering installment packages for residential stands in affluent, up-and-coming suburbs.
@Savheya_Happie Great. That is a realistic budget in today's construction market. It's enough to build a nice standard home and still have some change left over if the project is managed well.
@SimplyMulaedza@Shikonekeni_ If that's the case, it can only be BYD or cherry . Not that I'm surprised though many Chinese brands have built a reputation for closely copying the design language of some of the biggest and most successful brands on the planet
