WHAT IS REGARDED AS PROPERTY? Property includes: Ÿ Land and fixtures Ÿ Real rights in land (such as use rights), but excluding rights under mortgage bonds or leases Ÿ A share or interest in a residential property company (i.e., a company or close corporation where the only asset or major asset is a residential dwelling) Ÿ A contingent right to residential property or share or member's interest in a residential property company held by a discretionary trust where the acquisition of the right is: - in consequence of an agreement for consideration in relation to property held by that trust; - accompanied by a charge in the debt or security structure of the trust or accompanied by a charge in the trust's trustees; or - shares in a share block company. OWNERSHIP: RESIDENTS In South African law property may be owned individually, jointly in undivided shares or by an entity such as a company, close corporation, trust or alike registered inside SA. South Africa is reputed to have one of the best deeds registration systems in the world with an exceptional degree of accuracy and security of tenure. Land registration is used to record ownership in one of the regionally located Deeds Registries where such documents are available for public viewing. Non-residents may own property in South Africa, but illegal aliens are prohibited from owning immovable property. NON-RESIDENTS There are, however, procedures and requirements to be complied with in certain circumstances. This includes the local registration of entities registered outside of South Africa where they purchase property in South Africa, and the appointment of a South African resident public officer for a local company whose shares are owned by a non-resident. Should a non-resident buy property in the country and intend to reside here for lengthy periods he/she will have to obtain a resident permit in compliance with the provisions of South African law. 1

PURCHASING A PROPERTY When purchasing a property it is important that both the purchaser and the seller understand the terms of the Deed of Sale. It is usually the task of the estate agent to provide the necessary clarification before the parties sign the agreement. Such an agreement, usually titled an "Offer to Purchase" or "Agreement of Sale" or Deed of Sale, and must be legally binding. This requires that it be in writing, contain the prerequisite set of terms, and be signed by both the buyer and seller. An Offer to Purchase, once accepted, constitutes an Agreement of Sale or Deed of Sale. A Deed of Sale that has been signed by the both buyer and seller becomes a binding contract. It is an undertaking from which neither of the parties may withdraw without facing legal consequences. There are, however, certain instances where automatic withdrawal is possible: Ÿ Ÿ If certain conditions provided for in the agreement, are not fulfilled; If, in a case where the purchase price is less than R250 000, the buyer is allowed to cancel the transaction after a "cooling-off period in terms of criteria allowed for by provisions in the Alienation of Land Act. De facto ownership of property can also be obtained by acquiring the shares/members' interest and loan accounts in a company or close corporation that owns a property. Contracts of this nature, although legally binding, can be concluded verbally and need not be in writing. It is recommended, however, that the record of such agreements be kept in writing to avoid future disputes. 2

TRANSFER PROCEDURE The registration of a property transaction is handled by a qualified legal practitioner (attorney) called a conveyancer. The seller customarily appoints the conveyancer responsible for the registration of transfer of a property, while the costs incurred are paid by the purchaser - unless the contract stipulates otherwise. 1 3 SIGNING OF THE DEED OF SALE: Signing is done with agent / privately. The purchaser pays deposit in terms of contract. The purchaser applies for a bond at financial institution. PURCHASER BOND IS APPROVED IN PRESCRIBED TIME l The Financial institution forwards bond instruction to panel attorney. PURCHASER SIGNS BOND DOCUMENTS BOND ATTORNEY l Discuss with the Purchaser bond requirement i.r.o life insurance, property insurance. 4 6 7 9 TRANSFER ATTORNEY DRAFTS TRANSFER DOCUMENTS & BOND ATTORNEY DRAFTS BOND DOCUMENTS TRANSFER ATTORNEY LODGES TRANSFER DUTY / VAT RECEIPT APPLICATION WITH SARS TRANSFER ATTORNEY RECEIVES THE FOLLOWING RECEIPTS: l a) Municipal clearance certificate b) Levy clearance certificate c) Transfer duty / VAT receipt d) Electrical Compliance Certificate / Electrical Fence Certificate / Gas certificate 2 5 8 10 TRANSFER ATTORNEY RECEIVES DEED OF SALE: The attorney receives the deposit within prescribed time The attorney requests the following: Ÿ FICA documents from Seller & Purchaser Ÿ The Seller's bond cancellation figures Ÿ The Seller's municipal clearance figures Ÿ The Seller's Body Corporate / HOA clearance figures (if applicable) Ÿ Request payment of transfer costs account SELLER & PURCHASER SIGNS TRANSFER DOCUMENTS TRANSFER ATTORNEY l Discuss with the Seller the Certificate of Compliance (Electrical certificate) VARIOUS PAYMENTS ARE MADE BY THE TRANSFER ATTORNEY l The Transfer Attorney makes the following payments: a) Pays municipal rates and taxes clearance figures b) Pays Body Corporate / HOA levy clearance figures (if applicable) c) Pays transfer duty or VAT to SARS (if applicable) LODGE TRANSACTION AT THE LOCAL DEEDS OFFICE l From Lodgment until registration it takes approximately 8 to 12 working days. 3

On the date of registration of transfer all existing mortgage bonds registered over the property are cancelled. At the same time, the registration of any new mortgage bonds by the purchaser is registered in favor of the bank offering finance assistance to the purchaser. The purchaser is recorded as the new owner of the property and the purchase price is paid to the seller. This procedure does not apply when the shares/members' interest and loans are acquired in a property-owning company/close corporation, because no change in ownership is recorded in the Deeds Registry. Any liabilities relating to the property incurred by the previous owner, remain that of the previous owner. It is not passed on to the new owner, unless otherwise agreed. In case of the sale of shares/members' interest in a company or close corporation, the entity will remain liable for settling the liabilities it had incurred. SELLER: DUTIES AND COSTS If an estate agent is used, so-called brokerage or commission has to be paid. This is usually paid by the seller who appointed the estate agent. In addition to brokerage, the following expenses are usually paid by the seller: Ÿ An Electrical Compliance Certificate (COC) for any electrical installations on the property Ÿ An Electrical Fence Compliance Certificate if any electrical fences are installed on the property Ÿ A Gas Compliance Certificate if any gas operated appliances are on the property Ÿ The settlement amount to cancel the seller's current bond account (if applicable). The amount will be confirmed by the bank when the transferring attorneys request cancellation figures, once the bank has appointed their attorneys to cancel the bond Ÿ Bond Cancellation Fees (if applicable). These are the fees charged by the bank-appointed attorneys Ÿ Any outstanding rates and taxes or levies owed to the municipality and/or Home Owners' Association/Body Corporate, if applicable Bond Penalties: Seller did you know? The seller needs to give the financial institution holding the bond over the seller's property 90 days' written notice of the seller's intention to cancel the bond. If not, the bank may hold the seller liable for penalty interest. If your bond is cancelled before the 90 days' notice has lapsed, you will be liable for the early termination fee for the remaining notice period. If your bond is not cancelled within 90 days, the bank will not debit an early termination fee, except where it takes longer than 12 months to conclude. Then a new request to cancel the existing bond will be required. 4

PURCHASER DUTIES AND COSTS The purchaser is responsible for the payment of transfer costs and the costs of registering any new mortgage bonds for the property. These are often referred to as the conveyancing fees. The conveyancing fee is determined by the purchase price of the property and in accordance with a tariff guideline issued by the Law Society. The difference between transfer duty or VAT. Either transfer duty or VAT is payable on a transfer of property. VAT takes preference over transfer duty. If the seller is registered for VAT as a vendor and the property forms part of his/her business venture, then VAT is payable. If the seller is not registered for VAT or the property does not form part of his/her taxable supplies, then transfer duty will be payable instead. Transfer duty This is a tax levied by the Receiver of Revenue when a purchaser acquires a property. It generally constitutes the major portion of the costs involved and is payable by the purchaser within six months of the date of purchase (acceptance of the offer by the seller). If not paid within this time limit, interest will be charged. Transfer duty is levied on the value of the property acquired or donated. Transfer duty is a once off payment payable prior to the registration of transfer of the property. It is paid to the conveyancing attorney, who will in turn pay SARS. VAT Circumstances where VAT is payable often occur when purchasing a property in a new development, since the developer will generally be registered for VAT. But, where a VAT vendor sells his/her private residence, the residential property will be exempt from VAT and the sale will be subject to transfer duty instead. Transfer duty rates The present transfer duty rates are paid on properties with purchase agreements concluded on or after 15 September 2014. It applies to all persons (including companies, close corporations and trusts). Keep the following in mind: Ÿ Properties with a purchase price up to R 600 000 is exempt from transfer duty. Ÿ You don't pay transfer duty on the first R 600 000, only on the portion that exceeds this amount. The transfer duty is calculated at 3% on the value above R 600 000. Ÿ From R 1 000 001 to R 1 500 000, transfer duty is calculated at 5% on the value above R 1 000 000 PLUS a flat rate of R 12 000. Ÿ From R 1 500 001 upwards, transfer duty is calculated at 8% on the value above R1 500 000 PLUS a flat rate of R 37 000. Conveyancer's Transfer Fees The fees payable to a conveyancer for registering the transfer of ownership are known as the transfer fees. The amount is determined on a sliding scale according to the purchase price of the property. The sliding scale is based on tariffs recommended by the Law Society. The fees may include VAT and are payable to the conveyancing attorneys as a once-off prior to registration of transfer of the property into the name of the seller. 5

Deeds Office Registration Fee The Deeds Office charges a fee to register the transfer and record the new owner of the property. This is a fixed amount and it is determined by a sliding scale based on the purchase price. Occupational Interest (Occupational Rent) In most instances the contract will indicate that occupational interest is payable should the purchaser occupy the property prior to the registration of transfer of the property into the purchaser's name. The interest amount can either be fixed (usually calculated as either the amount of the seller's bond repayment on the property or 1% of the purchase price), or an amount subject to escalation if the registration of transfer has not taken place within a predetermined time frame. Occupational interest is payable in advance on a monthly basis as per the offer to purchase, alternatively to either the estate agent or the transfer attorneys (who will pay the seller) or otherwise directly to the seller. Postage and Petty Expenses The transfer attorneys charge a levy to take care of minor expenses such as postage and secure delivery of documents, faxes, telephone calls and the like. Home Loan Initiation Fee This fee is charged by the bank for the processing of the home loan application. The buyer may expect to pay a base fee of approximately R5 700. This is paid on registration of the bond. It may be debited from the home loan account (and added to the outstanding balance), depending on the bank's internal rules. Administration and Service Fee This is charged by the bank to administer the home loan account. The buyer can expect to pay approximately between R17 and R57 per month, depending on whether he/she has made use of the bank's in-house homeowners' insurance, in which case the fee will be less. The fee is payable on a monthly basis and will be debited against the home loan account. Homeowner's Insurance The bank will insist that the buyer take out homeowner's insurance to cover the risk of damage to the property that may result from natural disasters such as fire or storm. The amount will vary depending on the value of the property. It is payable on a monthly basis and will most likely be debited from the home loan account. The bank will pass the amount onto the insurance company. Home Loan Protection Insurance If the bond applicant does not already have a life assurance policy as security for the loan, he/she may be required to take out a kind of home loan protection insurance which will most likely be a variation of any of the following protections: death only; disability only; retrenchment only; death and disability; death and retrenchment; disability and retrenchment; or death, disability and retrenchment. Note: Depending on the home loan package, some of the costs mentioned above can be absorbed into the mortgage bond. Speak to your banker or financial adviser for more information and to verify these costs. Disclaimer: The transfer duty and conveyancing tariffs detailed above are quoted from the Minister of Finance regarding the transfer duty rates, as well as the prescribed conveyancing tariffs. Other estimated costs are only a guideline, and may vary in real time. 6

SIGNING OF DOCUMENTS Documentation prepared by the conveyancer for the registration of transfer and any mortgage bond to be registered must be signed in black ink and authenticated if signed outside South Africa. CAN TRANSFER AND/OR BOND DOCUMENTS BE SIGNED OVERSEAS AND IF SO, HOW? The short answer is, yes. However, there are certain formalities that must be complied with. Documents can either be signed before a Notary Public (in certain countries) or alternatively at the South African Embassy in that country. The process is unfortunately often costly and time consuming depending on the availability of the Notary or the Senior Official at the Embassy. As mentioned, if a seller or buyer is in South Africa at the time of the transaction but returning overseas shortly thereafter, it is advisable to sign a special or general power of attorney (GPA) in favour of a local and trusted friend or family member who will then be able to act on his or her behalf. 7

THE OFFER TO PURCHASE The Offer to Purchase/Deed of Sale will typically consist of the following standard provisions: Purchase price A deposit is not mandatory but serves as a gesture of good faith on the part of the buyer and an indication of financial ability. The deposit is invested by the estate agent or conveyancer in an interest-bearing trust account usually to the credit of the purchaser. Both attorneys and estate agents are protected by Fidelity Funds which guard against theft or negligence on the side of the agent or attorney. In the agreement there will usually be a request for a guarantee for the balance of the purchase price. Usually, a guarantee has to be issued by a local financial institution. Occupation, possession and transfer Occupation usually pertains to the physical occupation of the property whereas possession usually pertains to the date on which the buyer assumes responsibility for the property. It is customary for the risk of ownership to pass on the date of registration, rather than occupation (if not the same). Transfer refers to the actual date of registration of ownership of the property into the name of the purchaser in the Deeds Registry. Voetstoots This is a standard term included in almost all deeds of sale. It means that the property is bought as is, that is: in the exact condition in which the property is found. The Consumer Protection Act applies to sale agreements where the seller is a developer or similarly in the business of selling land. In such instances, the seller is obligated to provide the buyer with property that is free from defects, as defined in the Act. Latent and patent defects Ÿ The seller is advised to compile a list of all defects. It is prudent for the seller to point out problems such as a leaking roof, faulty plumbing, etc. to the estate agent and/or potential purchaser prior to entering into a transaction. Ÿ Ÿ The law recognizes two types of defects. Patent defects are obvious ones such as broken windows. Latent defects, such as dry rot, are not so obvious. The voetstoots clause is often included in an Agreement of Sale to protect the seller against defects of which the seller has no knowledge. However, if the seller knows of a defect and does not disclose it to the purchaser, the voetstoots clause will not protect the seller against liability, albeit subject to each particular set of facts. 8

Electrical and beetle-free certificates The owner of the property has to provide a valid electrical compliance certificate. It certifies that the electrical installation at the property meets statutory safety requirements. An already issued certificate my not be older than 2 years. Beetle-free certificates mostly apply to properties in the Western Cape and KwaZulu-Natal and it is not included in the sale of sectional title units. The certificate confirms that the property is free of beetle (defined) infestation. Note however that while it is usually a standard inclusion in the Agreement of Sale, it is not a legal requirement. The cost of any repairs that may be necessary for the certificates to be issued, is for the account of the seller, although the parties can contractually agree otherwise. Gas and Electric Fence Certificates If there is a gas appliance on the property a Gas Certificate of Compliance is required. It confirms that the installation complies with statutory safety requirements. Such a certificate is also a requirement where there is an electric fence installation on the property. Fixtures and fittings A property is sold together with all fixtures and fittings of a permanent nature. Generally, fixtures and fittings include anything which is permanently attached to the property. To avoid any unpleasantness or uncertainty, the purchaser is advised to ensure that all items intended to be included in the purchase price are specified in writing in the Agreement of Sale. Fulfilment of suspensive conditions The Sale Agreement may contain prerequisites or so-called suspensive conditions. These are conditions which must be fulfilled for all the terms of the agreement to become effective, only where after the transfer process can begin. The most common suspensive condition is the granting of a loan to the purchaser. A bond is a loan to the purchaser by a bank to enable him/her to pay the purchase price for the property, whilst the purchased property will serve as the bank's security. If the purchaser fails to make the bond repayments the bank is entitled to sell the property to recover the money it has lent. Another common suspensive condition is that the agreement is subject to the sale of the purchaser's property. This happens where the purchaser is selling his/her property and requires the proceeds from the sale of that property to pay for the new property. The seller, in this case, must realize that the transfer of the purchaser's property will have to precede or happen prior or simultaneously with the transfer of the seller's property. The conveyancers of the current sale will correspond closely with, and even get an undertaking from the conveyancers of the original property to transfer the proceeds of that sale on registration and thus expedite the process. Agreements for the acquisition of shares/member's interest and loan accounts in property-owning companies/close corporations contain many of the clauses discussed above. Such agreements are, however, substantially different from property sale agreements and include numerous warranties and indemnities that the seller gives to the purchaser, as the latter is acquiring the property-owning entity together with its financial history. 9

FICA The most comprehensive legislation to counter money laundering is the South African Financial Intelligence Centre Act (FICA). FICA puts measures in place to counter money laundering for banks and commercial institutions, as well as professionals such as estate agents, brokers, attorneys and insurance companies. Customer identification is a crucial element of any effective money laundering control system and therefore a central feature of FICA. In this context, the transferring attorney is required to request particular documents from both the seller and the purchaser in order to comply with FICA. DUTIES OF THE CONVEYANCER The Conveyancer act on behalf of the Seller, as the Conveyancer receives his / her mandate in terms of the signed Offer to Purchase Agreement. The Conveyancer also has the responsibility to look after the interests of the purchaser. In terms of Section 15 of the Deeds Registries Act, when signing the preparation clause of any deed, the Conveyancer accepts the responsibility of the accuracy of any fact mentioned in any document filed or registered in the Deeds Registry Office. The Conveyancer is involved from the beginning until registration of any transfer process and needs to keep both the seller and purchaser informed throughout the process and act in the best interest of both the seller and the purchaser. 10

LIFE AFTER REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER CLOSING OF RATES & TAXES, WATER AND ELECTRICITY ACCOUNTS VERY IMPORTANT: Take along the following documents: Ÿ ID, letter from attorneys confirming that the transaction is attended to, the clearance figures received, proof of payment of clearance figures, issued clearance certificate, updated deed search, and a copy of the Deed of Sale. After registration, it is the responsibility of both the seller and purchaser to visit their local municipality to respectively close and open accounts in their respective names. Should occupation be given and taken before date of registration, the same process is to be followed, but prior to occupation. LEVY CLEARANCES (applicable to Home Owners Associations and Body Corporates) Ÿ Ÿ Ÿ This is the same process as for the Rates Clearance Certificate the figures are only issued by the Home Owners Association or the Body Corporate in case of a sectional scheme, or erven in an Estate, and levies are calculated three months in advance. Should there be a surplus in the account after registration the client will be refunded directly by the Home Owners Association or Body Corporate.
