Background of the case I applied to the HOA for approval to build a boundary wall. Approval was granted in October , and I paid the required fees. I relied on the estate manager to obtain neighbour consent (especially from house ), which was not properly followed through. Construction began, but was stopped by the HOA citing: Lack of written consent from house . A 5cm deviation from the approved plan. Withdrawal of consent by house (after approval was granted). CSOS Adjudication Outcome My application was dismissed. The adjudicator found the approval invalid due to missing consent and deviation. I was not given a formal opportunity to submit amended plans. The HOA is now pushing for demolition. The adjudicator made no order as to costs. Current Legal Action I have filed a Notice of Appeal and an Application for Condonation with the High Court. Grounds for appeal include: Procedural unfairness. Failure to allow amended plans. Consent withdrawal after approval. No formal documentation of withdrawal. HOA’s approval despite missing documentation. Good faith actions on my part. Urgency HOA is threatening demolition. A pending legal case exists against house to prove the timing of consent withdrawal. I need representation to stay demolition and proceed with the appeal.
Hi - I am getting married ANC however I would like to give my fiancé 50% ownership of the house. I am looking for a simple , cost efficient way to get her name on the bond. I have been researching and all confirms we have to do a transfer at the deeds office as a new deal. I want to know how I can donate / sell 50%of the property ( not at current house value but for a minimal amount ) thereby reducing transfer duties and able to execute the requirement. I have just purchased the property and paid transfer duties and it will not be feasible to do this all over again and pay the transfer fees especially if the is legal.

The property I bought from public works, paid on March . I was told that because the purchase price is way less than a million, there's no transfer costs needed. While waiting I then received an email from public works in to say at the time when I made a payment the price had increased so there's a shortfall. To my surprise the shortfall is twice the purchase amount.
My son and I were renting and he lost his job. Both of us suffer with mental health issues and he lost his because of that. We are now both expecting sassa in August. We explained to our ex landlord the issue and now he wants us to pay back R per week. Sassa is just over per month and we are paying rent per month for an outside room. We won't be able to afford a roof over our heads if we pay him back what he wants. We already rely on friends etc for donations of food. What can we possibly do in this situation?
