How to confirm a property’s rights
- Find the erf number and township name on the municipal account or title deed (guide). The township name on the deed may differ from “Lynnwood”.
- Obtain a zoning certificate or the scheme record from the City of Tshwane.
- Read the applicable Land Use Scheme provisions and any annexure for the erf.
- Check the title deed for restrictive conditions and servitudes.
- Check previous approvals, building plans and any contravention notices.
If the zoning does not allow your plan
A gap between the current rights and your plan can sometimes be closed through an application. Which one, and whether it is realistic, depends on the Lynnwood erf and the City's policy for that location.
