Subdivision for Eersterust properties

An owner wants to sell a portion, restructure ownership or create separate development sites.

Being in Eersterust does not by itself decide whether subdivision 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.

Where Eersterust is

Eersterust lies roughly 13 km east of Church Square in central Pretoria, with Waltloo (about 2.0 km), Silverton (about 2.3 km), Jan Niemand Park (about 3.2 km) and East Lynne (about 3.7 km) among its nearest neighbours in our register. Distances are straight-line estimates from a GeoNames point, not boundaries. Also known as , Eersterus. We group it with 12 other areas under Wider Pretoria service areas; that grouping is ours, not a municipal region.

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 subdivision?

Checks before appointment

Test access, services, existing buildings, title restrictions and the applicable density and subdivision controls. There is no single minimum stand size for all Pretoria suburbs.

What the planner does

Develop a workable land-division proposal with a registered land surveyor, motivate the planning application and track conditions. Approval alone does not create a registered new erf.
