Rates clearance in Pretoria and Centurion
No transfer is registered without a clearance certificate from the municipality the property is in, certifying that everything due on it for the two years before the application has been paid (Municipal Systems Act, section 118). The conveyancer asks the municipality for the clearance figures; a seller whose account is up to date makes that faster.
For property in Pretoria or Centurion the conveyancer applies to the City of Tshwane.
Centurion is in the City of Tshwane's Region 4, which the City describes as a dolomitic area prone to sinkholes. Before you bid on a stand there, inspect it and make your own enquiries with the City of Tshwane.
