Cosatu endorses mortgage book

The Congress of Southern African Trade Union has endorsed the mortgage book written by Insider editor Charles Rukuni entitled: How to buy a house for half the price.

The book was published in April but is being distributed privately to keep its cost low and affordable to most people especially those in the low income bracket.

It retails for only R60.

The publisher intends to market the book through trade unions, community organisations and even individuals who can buy the book at a discounted price and then sell it for the recommended price thus earning income for themselves.

Details of how to obtain the book can be obtained from: charlesrukuni@insiderzim.com. Alternatively people can send an sms to: 0734937753

Here is the review from the Cosatu magazine: The Shop Steward.
