Excision of agricultural holdings for Eersterust properties

Development or registration needs may require a change in the holding’s legal status.

Being in Eersterust does not by itself decide whether excision of agricultural holdings is needed or likely to succeed. The erf's zoning, title conditions, servitudes, previous approvals and the applicable City of Tshwane policies decide that, and they can differ between neighbouring stands.

The closest areas in our list are Waltloo (about 2.0 km), Silverton (about 2.3 km), Jan Niemand Park (about 3.2 km) and East Lynne (about 3.7 km).

Questions we'd ask about your Eersterust property

  • Do the City of Tshwane spatial frameworks say anything specific about this part of Wider Pretoria service areas?
  • Have neighbouring properties in Eersterust or Waltloo had similar applications approved or refused?
  • What is the current zoning of the Eersterust erf, and does it carry an annexure?
  • Does the title deed contain conditions that conflict with the proposed excision of agricultural holdings?
