It has become a general requirement that when submitting a development application to a municipality that you submit a Conveyancer\u2019s Certificate. In some municipalities such as the City of Cape Town, the Conveyancer\u2019s Certificate is a standard document submitted in support of any development or land use application. The Conveyancer\u2019s Certificate is prepared by a conveyancer, being an admitted attorney who also passed the conveyancing exam. The certificate itself is a certification by the conveyancer in respect of the restrictive conditions contained in the holding title as well as any pivot title that is referred to therein.<\/p>\n
The municipality must confirm whether the application submitted contravenes any title deed restrictions and if so, whether it is necessary for those title conditions to be removed, relaxed and further whether these conditions can be removed or relaxed.<\/p>\n
The Conveyancer should be in a position to advise on the imposition of a restrictive condition, the party entitled to the benefit of the condition, and the process applicable to the removal or relaxation of the restrictive conditions.<\/p>\n
Inaccuracies in the Conveyancer\u2019s Certificate can lead to extensive delays in the municipal approval process or complex planning contraventions that are expensive and very difficult to rectify.<\/p>\n
