Property & Real Estate

Residential leasing is heavily influenced by the Rental Housing Act 50 of 1999, the Consumer Protection Act 68 of 2008 (especially for consumers in fixed-term agreements), and municipal by-laws. Property sale and transfer involve the Deeds Registries Act and conveyancing practice—use a conveyancer for registration.
