Do you know if your house is actually legal to buy or sell?  Many buyers or sellers are unaware of the costly amendments that may be required by the Council.  Have your home and house plans checked before you buy or sell!
Illegal building work without building plans: -
• Fine of R3 048.10 for any building “Zoned Residential 1” structures without approved building plans (not applicable to previously disadvantaged areas),
• Fine of 10% of value of the building for all developments excluding "Zoned Residential 1" without approved building plans, and fine of 10 % value of the building if written warning is not complied with in 14 days.
