Black homeownership in the United States is not a new thing. It actually goes back to the beginning of the twentieth century. However, it has gained recent attention because of some current events. The economic recession and the housing crisis have brought it to the forefront of many people’s minds as an important issue. There are a number of reasons why black ownership is important to you, regardless of what the recession may be doing to the rest of the country.

First of all, owning a home means that you are part owner. This is not true for all states or communities, but typically there is a net worth of at least one percent on a typical house when it is sold. Even if you are not initially profitable, your investment will increase over time because of the appreciation of the property’s value. When you are black-owned, this growth is not seen, which can help you determine if investing in a home is the right decision for you.

Second, owning a home makes you a homeowner. Owning a home means being a resident or a full-time occupant of a residence. For many people, the feeling of being a full-time occupant is important because it helps them feel like they have some control over their finances and community. When you are black-owned, the only way to gain this kind of control is through a mortgage loan with a modified flow of money, which is determined by your net worth and your credit score.

Third, because of restrictive lending criteria that have been placed on homes, owning a home and having a regular monthly income means that black-owned homes are usually easier to get approved for than homes that are not black-owned. A bank’s lending criteria changes with the economy, so it is important to always keep your eyes open for opportunities. In addition, the lower net worth that you have can help you qualify for a larger loan that will make your monthly payments more affordable. When you are black-owned, you are also at a disadvantage when you need to refinance because you don’t qualify for the same low-interest rates that other homeowners of your income bracket enjoy.

Fourth, when you talk about Black ownership, you are basically talking about two separate entities: the actual individual that is black and the private entities that are called South African Banks. In a broader sense, there are no real “owned businesses” in South Africa, because there is not one single business that owns every single business in the country. Although South Africa has a single currency, the Sowole currency, each black-owned business is assigned a unique sector code. This sector code then makes all transactions that are made between you and the institution that issues the business (usually a bank) very specific.

So now we come to the main point: are you eligible for preferential procurement when you purchase property with a bank in South Africa? The answer is that you must achieve what is known as an M1 MEO. This is basically an MEO that is identified by the institution that issues you the loan that identifies you as a client, which then marks you as a client of privilege. This means that when you make any type of commercial purchase with a South African institution (including private entities), you will be required to achieve an MEO with that institution. This requires that you satisfy a number of criteria that have been outlined by the MEO issuer.

Now let’s look at the criteria that are required for you to be eligible for preferential procurement with banks in South Africa: First, you must develop skills development. The MEO criteria require that you develop at least one industry-related skill. You must then be able to demonstrate that you have the capability to successfully market and sell your skills to potential clients who will want to acquire your skills.

Secondly, if you wish to achieve preferential treatment with a financial institution, you must demonstrate that you will be able to comply with the MEO terms and conditions. These include undertaking training or continuing education relating to your chosen profession and ensuring that you are fit and healthy. Finally, you must demonstrate that you possess the capability of complying with any employment contracts that might be required as part of preferential treatment. If you can’t produce these documents, you won’t likely be able to achieve the MEO status that you’re seeking.
