Development feasibility & due diligence for Bon Accord properties
A purchaser or owner is considering development, investment or a change of use.
Two properties in Bon Accord can need quite different approaches to development feasibility & due diligence. What counts is the individual erf: its zoning and any annexure, the title deed conditions, registered servitudes, earlier approvals and the City of Tshwane policy that applies to its location.
Where Bon Accord is
Bon Accord lies roughly 14 km north of Church Square in central Pretoria, with Onderstepoort (about 3.6 km), Annlin (about 5.6 km), Sinoville (about 6.5 km) and Doornpoort (about 6.6 km) among its nearest neighbours in our register.

Questions we'd ask about your Bon Accord property
- What is the current zoning of the Bon Accord erf, and does it carry an annexure?
- Does the title deed contain conditions that conflict with the proposed development feasibility & due diligence?
- Are there servitudes, building lines or earlier approvals on the property that affect the plan?
- Is the property part of a sectional title scheme, estate or home owners' association whose consent may be needed?
Checks before appointment
Separate existing rights from hoped-for rights. Confirm land status, title, policy, access, services, constraints and the proposed development scale.
What the planner does
Produce an agreed-scope planning investigation with assumptions, constraints and possible routes. Surveying, geotechnical, engineering, environmental and financial feasibility work require their own specialists.
