Excision of agricultural holdings for Rietfontein properties
Development or registration needs may require a change in the holding’s legal status.
Being in Rietfontein does not by itself decide whether excision of agricultural holdings 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 Rietfontein property
- Does the title deed contain conditions that conflict with the proposed excision of agricultural holdings?
- 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?
- Do the City of Tshwane spatial frameworks say anything specific about this part of Central & Northern Pretoria?
Checks before appointment
