Our Process

How a Sandton Property Transfer May Progress

Order and timing vary by transaction.

1

Instruction & Agreement

We confirm parties, property, conditions, finance and occupation.

2

Identity & FICA

Required personal, entity, marital and tax information is collected securely.

3

Clearances & Guarantees

Municipal, tax, bond and guarantee requirements are coordinated.

4

Signing & Linked Matters

Documents are signed and transfer, bond registration and cancellation are coordinated.

5

Lodgement & Examination

Linked matters are lodged at the relevant deeds registry once ready.

6

Registration & Accounting

Registration is confirmed and financial settlement addressed per mandate.

Deeds Registry

Registration Through the
South Gauteng Deeds Registry

Property transfers are lodged at the deeds registry with jurisdiction under current official arrangements. Current official Deeds Registration contact information identifies the South Gauteng Deeds Registry in Johannesburg — though the correct registry depends on the property and official arrangements, and lodgement does not guarantee registration.

Buyers & Sellers

Guidance for Sandton Property Buyers and Sellers

For Buyers

  • Understand sale-agreement conditions before signature
  • Confirm finance, deposit and cost assumptions
  • Verify title, sectional, use and approval issues where relevant
  • Verify every banking instruction independently

For Sellers

  • Confirm title, owner and authority details
  • Give existing lender cancellation notice early
  • Identify rates, levies and special levies
  • Prepare FICA, tax and banking information securely

Conveyancing does not automatically include structural, valuation, investment, tax or full legal due diligence.

Sectional Title & Commercial Sectional title and commercial property conveyancing in Sandton

Sectional Title & Commercial Property

Apartments, Townhouses
and Commercial Assets

Scheme rules, levies, exclusive-use parking, storage or gardens, body-corporate information and alterations all need document-specific verification for Sandton sectional-title property. For commercial assets, we assist with acquisition, disposal, entity authority, finance, leases, zoning and registration coordination for appropriate transactions.

Bonds & Costs

Coordinating Property Finance
with Transfer

Buyer bond registration, seller bond cancellation and transfer may be handled by different appointed attorneys and must be coordinated for linked lodgement and registration. Transfer, bond and transaction costs depend on tax, professional fees, deeds charges, clearances and matter-specific disbursements — generic estimates may exclude municipal or levy items, so a written quote always controls.

Timing

What Can Affect a Sandton
Property Transfer Timeline?

Sale conditions, buyer finance, seller bond cancellation figures, FICA and entity documents, the transfer-duty process, City of Johannesburg rates clearance, sectional or body-corporate clearance, guarantees and registry examination can all affect timing. We do not promise a fixed registration period or attribute delay to one institution.

Transaction Security

Verify Every Banking
and Payment Instruction

  • Independently call a known official number to verify details.
  • Treat unexpected account changes as suspicious.
  • Check email domains and unusual urgency.
  • Use secure routes for FICA, identity and banking documents.
  • Report suspicious messages to us immediately.
