new, populist-led era Municipalities cannot hold you liable for old property debt! Judgement brings clarity to a drawn-out conundrum…
Both municipalities have argued that they can enforce credit control and debt collection by-laws on the basis that the historical debts are claimable from new owners or tenants.
If you buy a property that has a municipal-related debt to it – incurred by the previous owner – you cannot be held responsible for paying it.
However, Judge Fourie ruled that section 118 (3) is constitutionally invalid regarding the security provision, as the new owner “is not a debtor of the municipality with regard to municipal debts incurred prior to such transfer [of the property].”
This was the precedent-setting ruling by Judge Dawie Fourie at the North Gauteng High Court in Pretoria las week, clarifying a long drawn-out battle between buyers of residential properties and local municipalities. The court ruled that the practice by the City of Tshwane and Ekurhuleni, in holding new owners liable for the payment of historical debt amassed by a previous owner, is constitutionally invalid.
The City of Tshwane and Ekurhuleni municipalities were also ordered to render municipal services where no debt exists in respect of municipal services between the municipalities and the new owners. The debate about the responsibility of historical debt initially came to light in the matter between the City of Tshwane and Peregrine Joseph Mitchell, who purchased a property in 2013. He was told by the municipality that he had to pay R232 828 in outstanding debt on the property, in order to obtain a clearance certificate.
Industry players said the judgement will have a profound impact on Mitchell disputed the correctness of the outstanding amount, which property owners in SA – beyond those owning residential was subsequently reduced to R126 608. Mitchell paid this amount and properties. received a clearance certificate, leaving a historical debt of R106 219 still outstanding to the property. The matter, which was initially heard in February includes five separate applications, each involving situations in which transfer of He later resold the property with the debt and the City of Tshwane properties occurred following receipt of a clearance certificate refused to supply municipal services such as electricity, water, and under section 118 (1) of the Municipal Systems Act. waste removal to the property until the historical debt was settled by the new owner. The respondents in the matters are the City of Tshwane and Ekurhuleni. The matter initially went to the high court in Pretoria, which ruled The municipalities in question (where the properties purchased are that new owners were not liable for the historic debt owed to the situated) certified that all amounts due (including water, electricity, property. rates and taxes) two years’ prior to the application for transfer, were The judgement was appealed at the Supreme Court of Appeal (SCA) paid. which ruled that a transfer of a property to a new owner doesn’t mean that the debt is extinguished and that the new owner may be All the properties, in fact, had historical debt to them. liable for the debt. In some cases, the City of Tshwane refused to supply municipal In this appeal, the SCA did not consider the constitutionality of services – such as electricity, water, and waste removal – to section 118 (3). properties until the historical debt was settled by the new owner.

NEW R1.5BN DEVELOPMENT FOR UMGENI, DURBAN Source - Biz Community
Eris Property Group recently announced the development of a R1.5bn décor and lifestyle business park in Umgeni, Durban at a launch event at the Beverly Hills Hotel in Umhlanga. The Umgeni Deco & Lifestyle Park has been designed to provide 90,000m2 of commercial, retail, showroom and office space. Located within the existing Umgeni Business Park, the land is said to be the last centrally located undeveloped piece of land in Durban. Lance Meyer, development manager at Eris Property Group explains that, in addition to its track record of demonstrated development success in the Durban area, it chose this site as part of its expanding portfolio of developments in Durban because the node is set to receive a new injection of investment.
Two phases The development will be undertaken by Eris Property Group and Accessio Group in partnership with PRASA and Intersite Asset Investments. Construction will begin mid-2017 and the development will be constructed in two phases over the next five years. Meyer confirms that all development and environmental approvals are in place, and the business park is ready to develop as a full site for facilities up to 90,000m2 GLA (gross lettable area) over 13,6ha.

STEADY GROWTH IN MIXED-USE HOSPITALITY DEVELOPMENTS Source – Karen Miller, Property Insider
There has been a steady growth in mixed-use hospitality developments such as hotels or conference centres on a global scale and there’s no sign of this mixed-use hospitality momentum slowing down, according to local and international hospitality experts. These urban developments blend office, commercial, hospitality, entertainment and residential space, offering people a “live, work, play” lifestyle. The concept has also brought about a broader accommodation mix and improved convenience for residents seeking to live closer to their work, leisure and shopping areas.
Another newcomer is the 207-room Radisson Blu Hotel in Durban’s Oceans Umhlanga development that’s expected to open its doors in 2019. Designed as an urban resort, the high-end complex will feature luxury apartments and a shopping mall with leading international brands. Hotel guests can enjoy the convenience of being a few footsteps away from leading restaurants and an array of recreational and entertainment areas as they rediscover the charm of these urban areas. In South Africa specifically, we are finding that these mixed-use developments bring an element of safety and improved sense of security to many. Local examples of such precincts are the well-designed V&A Waterfront, Cape Town and Melrose Arch, Johannesburg.
Mixed-use developments are not a new concept or property trend in South Africa. In fact, the country wisely Whether these mixed-use hospitality developments are adopted this approach in the late 1990s and early 2000s, built or the result of urban upgrades restoring these when Melrose Arch and Cape Town’s Century City made it buildings to their former glory, this property trend is here onto our city maps. to stay. quoin-online-mixed-useBut what has been counting in the country’s favour is our consistent building on this trend, resulting in the creation of new business hubs and innovative property development solutions – due to massive capital investment. All and all, mixed-use developments boost the economy, stimulate small business growth, create jobs and present a host of investment opportunities. They are also a sterling way of capitalising on a more resourceful use of a denser space as well as meeting the country’s infrastructure needs. In South Africa there are a few either in progress or in the pipeline. The R1.2-billion Yacht Club mixed-use development in Cape Town’s Roggebaai Canal precinct will consist of A-grade commercial space as well as 170 residential units and a hotel.
18
It is often said that hospitality businesses within mixed-use developments perform at much higher levels than their standalone counterparts. The “visitor experience” is a priority with tourists preferring their accommodation establishments to be mini tourist destinations rather than unconnected buildings. But what should hospitality owners and tenants look out for before they invest and set up shop in such integrated areas? Research to check new neighbours will deliver substantial foot traffic and brand exposure •
•
It is essential that you ensure you know exactly who your retail, commercial and residential neighbours are? Will your company be able to feed off the businesses surrounding you?
• • • • •
Is there a healthy synergy? Do they complement your brand? Will they give your brand greater exposure? What are the possible reputational risks? Making the right choice of housemate also leads to many opportunities for cross-promotion, as well as shared marketing and public relations campaigns.
Try and establish what will be expected of you as a tenant. For example, if your company is a restaurant and you’re opening within a hotel area, you might be legally obligated to serve guests breakfast or room service. Or, a hotel adjacent to a conference centre might be expected to keep rooms aside for mega conferences. If possible, try to make a more recently developed mixed-use area your new home. They are normally built from the ground up and specifically designed to be mixed-use developments, sport newer common-area facilities and might even offer leasing incentives. It’s also imperative that you review zoning details and legal realities before opening your doors. Your lease or contract will probably be part of a net lease which normally provides for Common Area Maintenance (CAM) charges that relate to common areas’ cleaning, painting, landscaping, all charged over and above rent depending on the amount of space one hires. A good tip is to negotiate a fixed CAM rate before signing your lease, preventing an increase if other tenants decide to pack up. In addition, make sure you know what will be required from your business regarding insurance payments, union rules and agreements, service level agreements and other shared costs and responsibilities. All the more reason why the necessity for in-depth homework to be done long before you put up your signage.

LAW IN SOUTH AFRICA The matrimonial property system which you choose before you marry will affect your whole future and your estate. You must exercise an informed choice to determine your proprietary rights during your marriage, as well as when it is dissolved, either by death or divorce. Think carefully in your own personal interests and goals and do not allow your heart to cloud your judgment. What are your options? A marriage in community of property bares no formal processes before marriage as you will automatically be married in community of property if you do not execute and register an antenuptial contract. Alternatively you may opt for a marriage out of community of property, with or without the accrual system. This is achieved by registration in the Deeds Office of an antenuptial contract drawn up to suit your individual needs. The accrual system applies should you enter into a marriage in terms of an antenuptial contract without expressly excluding the accrual system. You can choose to include a provision in your antenuptial contract which records a mutual agreement between the parties that will serve to regulate the marriage. Your antenuptial contract can also gives effect to any other arrangement between the spouses, such as donating a property or ceding insurance policies or a prenuptial agreement, provided that it is not contrary to the law or immoral.
Marriage in Community of Property Both spouses share equally in the assets and liabilities of the joint estate. Both spouses now have equal powers of administration, and apart from some exceptions both can act independently. It is important to know about the exceptions which are contained in the Matrimonial Property Act and we can discuss these fully with you if necessary.
Advantages This system is based on the principle that marriage is a partnership and as such it can be conducive to a harmonious marriage relationship. It promotes both legal and economic equality of the spouses. During the marriage and on its dissolution both partners are automatically
You can apply to the High Court after a marriage in community of property to vary your matrimonial property system to an out of community of property system with or without the accrual principle but this can be an expensive and lengthy process.

PROV
The accrual system is a modern, equitable system and can be conducive to harmonious marriage relationship. It was deliberately introduced from German law to empower the poorer spouse. It offers some protection during the existence of the marriage against, for example, insolvency of one of the spouses and, at the same time, at dissolution of the marriage each spouse has an equal share.
Disadvantages
There is no preferred marital regime; however it is about communication and understanding each other better so you should at least have this discussion before marriage. We also suggest that you consider a digitally aware will/s which takes full account of your digital assets if one or both of you do not have one or that you revise your existing will/s in the light of your impending marriage and your digital footprint. At the least, you should ensure you have a currently effective will.

A possible disadvantage, especially in the case of a wealthy spouse, might be that he or she feels that they are not quite free to deal with their property since the other spouse could apply to court for the immediate division of the accrual should the latter feel that the former, by entering into a specific transaction, might prejudice his or her right to share in the accrual. This may cause friction.
