Conveyancing Attorneysin Alberton

Estates on the ridge and family homes

Security and eco estates in Meyersdal have architectural guidelines and homeowners' association rules that bind every owner. The association's consent and clearance are needed before transfer, and the rules often limit what you can build. We obtain those early so registration is not held up.

In Brackenhurst, Brackendowns and Mayberry Park most homes are freehold, and the usual checks apply: building plans, electrical and other compliance certificates, and the municipal rates clearance.

Passing a home to the next generation

When a parent dies and the family home is left to the children, it does not pass to them automatically. The estate has to be reported, an executor appointed, the estate's debts paid, and then the property transferred to the heirs. We handle each stage and keep the family informed in plain language.

Sectional title transfers, levy clearances and body corporate consents.

Rates clearance in Alberton

Properties in Alberton fall under the City of Ekurhuleni. Before the Deeds Office registers a transfer, the municipality must confirm that nothing is owed on the property's rates and services account. We apply for those figures in the first week of the transfer, so that this step runs alongside the bank and the bond cancellation instead of waiting for them.
