This experience&nbsp;served her well&nbsp;when she joined Trafalgar in March 2017 where she managed the&nbsp;Levy Finance and Collections&nbsp;division&nbsp;for Trafalgar Financial Services. In 2019 she&nbsp;became&nbsp;Head of Trafalgar Property Management\u2019s&nbsp;Sectional Title Levy Collections nationally.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAmdene will&nbsp;service ZDFin\u2019s Executive Managing Agent (EMA) clients in the city and surrounds, as well as manage&nbsp;the financed and unfinanced levy collection,\u201d adds Schaefer. \u201cHer thorough knowledge, hands on experience and capacity to extend her skills to general issues affecting community schemes and their compliance, makes her a valuable addition to the team at ZDFin.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe interest rate hike, ongoing rolling black-outs and skyrocketing energy costs have all impacted on the uncomfortable situation many community schemes find themselves in.&nbsp; Owners are battling to keep up with the payment of levies, general and special maintenance plans and the cost of electricity and water.&nbsp; This is where ZDFin is really making the most impact, as we specialise in tailor-making solutions, with one or a combination of financial products, to suit each schemes\u2019 specific needs and requirements.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A key attraction for enlisting the services of an EMA, is that they take over the role and responsibilities of the Trustees and \u2018step into their shoes\u2019, not only for the day to day decisions that the Trustees would normally make, but also the know-how and knowledge of all applicable compliance and legislative requirements. There will no longer be a need for any Trustees if an EMA is appointed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter three good years, we now have a track-record of success and have been able to show owners that when ZDFin takes on a scheme, we totally deliver on our promises, because we are invested in each and every scheme and driven by positive outcomes.&nbsp; We work with the scheme\u2019s appointed Managing Agents, to secure the best results for the trustees and owners.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Schaefer notes that in 2022 alone, ZDFin has been able to assist 100% of their EMA clients to transform their under-performing residential community schemes into viable entities once again and over 60% of schemes have self-funded the EMA costs within the first three months of ZDFin being appointed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur rates, costing and tailored offerings are more competitive than the other players in the market,\u201d emphasises Schaefer. \u201cWe offer more choice and have the practical experience to back it up. There really is no substitute for experience, especially in the property industry, especially the scheme market.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_128425\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-128425\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mypr.co.za\/?attachment_id=128425\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" class=\"wp-image-128425 size-full lazyload\" src=\"http:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/amdene-viljoen-leads-zdfin-expansion-into-cape-town.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-128425 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/amdene-viljoen-leads-zdfin-expansion-into-cape-town.jpg\" alt width=\"768\" height=\"1024\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-128425\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Amdene Viljoen Opens New ZDFin Office in Cape Town<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>Video:<\/strong> AMDENE VILJOEN LEADS ZDFIN EXPANSION INTO CAPE TOWN<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/mypr.co.za\/AMDENE%20VILJOEN%20LEADS%20ZDFIN%20EXPANSION%20INTO%20CAPE%20TOWN\/2\/\">Boilerplate and Editor\u2019s Notes<\/a><\/strong>.<br \/><strong>More Info on <a href=\"https:\/\/zdfin.co.za\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">AMDENE VILJOEN LEADS ZDFIN EXPANSION INTO CAPE TOWN<\/a> here:<\/strong><br \/><strong>Twitter<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TigerjoJoanne\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">https:\/\/twitter.com\/TigerjoJoanne<\/a><br \/><strong>Facebook<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/joanne.hayes.102\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/joanne.hayes.102<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/mypr.co.za\/save-with-myprs-monthly-flat-fee\/\">CLICK HERE to submit your press release to MyPR.co.za<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p> <span class=\"post-views-icon dashicons dashicons-chart-bar\"><\/span> <span class=\"post-views-label\">Press Release Views since 1 July 2022:<\/span> <span class=\"post-views-count\">205<\/span> <\/p>\n<div class=\"entry-pagination pagination\">Pages: <span class=\"post-page-numbers current\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Page <\/span>1<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/mypr.co.za\/amdene-viljoen-leads-zdfin-expansion-into-cape-town\/2\/\" class=\"post-page-numbers\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Page <\/span>2<\/a><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mypr.co.za\">Source: MyPR.co.za<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Republish for Free Republish This Story Republish our articles for free, online or in print, under a Creative Commons license.
