Consolidation for Menlyn properties
A development spans boundaries or the owner needs a single registered property.
Being in Menlyn does not by itself decide whether consolidation 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.

Questions we'd ask about your Menlyn property
- What is the current zoning of the Menlyn erf, and does it carry an annexure?
- Does the title deed contain conditions that conflict with the proposed consolidation?
- Are there servitudes, building lines or earlier approvals on the property that affect the plan?
- Is the property part of a sectional title scheme, estate or home owners' association whose consent may be needed?
Checks before appointment
Check ownership, mortgage bonds, servitudes, existing zonings and approval conditions. Consolidation does not automatically harmonise different rights.
What the planner does
Coordinate the planning requirements, diagram and registration sequence with the surveyor and conveyancer. Confirm whether associated rights amendments are also needed.
