@the deal do not lie to wazuans like this. Shame on you
S&L is more than capable of WHOLLY financing full development projects even for GOK which is no different than doing the building themselves!

S&L is even enabling the development of property regionally and is now officially the biggest mortgage financier in the Eastern & Central Africa region!

There is a BIG difference between wholly/100% financing a project and developing the project. The former is done by both the mortgage lenders but the latter is only being done by HF. In the former, only interest is earned while in the latter the projects profits are earned (which are significantly higher than the net interest earned in 100% project financing).

You may also note that HF has its eyes on devolved regions!

In 2010 HF raced above 26/-

In 2011 & early 2012 HF
tested sub 14/- and bounced.

Late 2012 - HF is yet again testing sub 14 levels...

Market cycles... Seems HF trading range is 12 - 33/-

The dynamics of 2008 PEV, 2009 GFC & 2011 KES collapse have all tested the low of 12/- with no breakage.


HF is now poised for a sharp snapback having been left behind by the market recovery. Going forward the CBR rate cut should boost their books. But the fear baked in this stock could be due to the strict land laws as well as the county land freeze.

Buy fear...

Lol what are you smoking? There is a huge differance between property development financing and property development itself. Let me educate you.
1. Property development financing means giving loans to developers to build, you as a lender do not own the property. Its a risky business since the developer can fail to find buyers and default on his loans i.e KCB Rwanda http://www.the-star.co.k...n-homes-builders-estate 2. Property development means you build your own house and then find a buyer or a tenant for the development. In case of HF they can provide financing for their projects creating lending opportunities in the process. They can even sell to folks with S&L loans smile ...in the counties HF can build and then let folks or companies/parastatals rent from them. S&L cant compete with HF. Dont comfuse a bad year (2012) due to high cost of funds with what HF is becoming.

@the deal I know the difference between actual property development and property development financing!
I never said S&L is a property developer in my post!

It is you who is misleading wazuans claiming that no other mortgage financier HAS THE CAPACITY to develop..

If i can finance a development project for 5billion then it must mean if i wanted to i could develop the project myself!

S&L may have its reasons for staying out of property development but capacity is definitely not among them!

#Farsighted_CEO

Housing Finance which lowered its base-rate to 18 per cent from 23 per cent said it expected more take-up of mortgages especially for the middle and lower end of the market and is scaling up development to meet demand from these market segments.

“Despite a slowdown in economic activity, we have continued to be involved in property development which will create significant lending opportunities for the company,” said chief executive Frank Ireri.

While HFCK had a base rate of 23% S&L was offering 19% to customers!

They must have lost serious market share!

The concern I have is whether some unscrupulous [we know there are many] will take advantage of the new Land Laws [retroactive] to screw over HFCK?

Wives, children, etc [even those who appear out of the night after the chap dies] can put a claim on the assets of the deceased. How does HFCK recover the money?

@guru, while S&L was charging its existing customers over 19%p.a (19%+risk premium). HF was charging its at an effective rate of 16%. Strong statement made by HF right there at the tough times.

What is more, currently, S&L is charging a base rate of 18% meaning when risk premium is loaded on the customer the effective rate becomes higher (mostly >20%). HF is currently charging an effective rate of 18%. Watch as HF gains more of the market share!

Trades @13/- currently striked. The fear... 12/- coming up. But the volume build up tells a different tape direction...

Just as i was preparing to enter.. Let me watch for a little while before entering. It is really a diamond in the rough - just not sure when the polishing of the diamond is scheduled to happen!

You will never buy. if(very big if) it gets to 12.00, you will wait for 10.00.

I continue to fancy the volume spread. 2,014,300 shares traded today. Last week 1M shares were traded. Closed @13.25/-

The rebound will be snappish when it comes.
