A recent High Court judgment has sparked important discussion around levy arrears and debt recovery within sectional title schemes in South Africa.

The judgment does not remove the obligation to pay levies. Instead, it highlights the importance of fairness, proportionality, and proper oversight when enforcing levy recovery.

The matter involved a levy debt of approximately R17,000 that escalated to more than R80,000 due largely to legal fees, collection charges, and interest. The Court raised concerns about the scale of the enforcement process and the proportionality of the costs involved.

The article further discusses:
✔️ Levy recovery and proportionality
✔️ Acknowledgements of Debt (AODs)
✔️ The role of trustees and managing agents
✔️ Oversight and governance in sectional title schemes

⚖️ Injured in a Road Accident?

After an accident, many people are left dealing with injuries, medical treatment, loss of income, and uncertainty about what comes next.

In certain circumstances, you may have a claim through the Road Accident Fund (RAF). However, it is important to act within the required legal timeframes.

📌 In general:
• Claims involving an identified driver must be lodged within 3 years from the date of the accident
• Claims involving unidentified or hit-and-run drivers must be lodged within 2 years

Missing these deadlines may affect your right to claim compensation.

Understanding the process early on can help protect your rights and assist you in taking the necessary steps forward.

Our team can assist with RAF claims and guide you through the process with professionalism and care.

“Why does it matter if the purchase price includes VAT?”

This is a common question during property transactions, especially where the seller is a registered VAT vendor.

If VAT is applicable to the sale, it is important to establish upfront whether the advertised or agreed purchase price includes VAT or excludes it.

Understanding this early on can help buyers and sellers avoid confusion when planning for the overall costs involved in the transaction.

Did you know?

Transfer duty and VAT do not apply in the same way when purchasing immovable property.

If VAT is applicable to a transaction, transfer duty is generally not payable.

Transfer duty is also not charged at a flat percentage and is instead calculated according to a sliding scale based on the purchase price of the property.

If transfer duty is not paid within six months, interest may become payable thereafter.

Understanding the difference can help buyers and sellers better prepare for the costs involved in a property transaction.
