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 “Mamelodi West”.
- 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
Depending on the proposal, a consent use, rezoning, removal of restrictive conditions or building-line relaxation may be options. None is automatic.
