Development feasibility & due diligence for Hermanstad properties
A purchaser or owner is considering development, investment or a change of use.
The suburb name alone tells us little about development feasibility & due diligence. For a Hermanstad stand we look at the zoning record, title deed restrictions, servitudes, approval history and the City's spatial policy for that location before advising.

Questions we'd ask about your Hermanstad property
- Have neighbouring properties in Hermanstad or Hercules had similar applications approved or refused?
- What is the current zoning of the Hermanstad 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?
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.
