|
|
|
|
| Description |
|
| The Proclaimed Town History Report focuses on a specific municipal suburb and the proclaimed towns associated with it. The report displays property transfers as recorded by the Deeds Office for the proclaimed town(s) associated with the suburb (including extensions and zones). |
|
| An interactive GIS map is included showing the location of the suburb within approximately a 200m radius. The map has a zoom and pan facility as well as a legend. The zoom ranges from province level up to stand level. Street names and numbers are displayed on the map. |
|
| The Deeds transfers of the suburb that have take place over a three-month period selected by the user (any date since January 1997), are displayed in a table. Street addresses will be displayed, where available. The report will include transfers for all the extensions and zones of the proclaimed town(s) linked to the municipal suburb, as well as the areas surrounding the suburb. Freehold and sectional title transfers will be listed in separate tables. |
|
| To give you insight into current property price trends in the area, tables comparing sold price averages and transfers for each proclaimed town are also displayed. The averages are based on sale prices recorded by the Deeds Office for freehold and sectional title properties transferred for between R5 000 and R2-million in each particular proclaimed town, extensions and zones included. Averages have been calculated for six-month periods and cover July 2002 to December 2003. The dates and price range are fixed and are not influenced by the selections made for the transfer history tables. |
|
| Amenities such as retail stores, medical facilities and schools within the vacinity of the specific suburb are listed. Distances are based on the centre point of the suburb. |

| How to Search |
|
| Click here to view an example of the search page. |
|
| The search is based on municipal data and will list suburbs without extensions and zones, as the report includes all the extensions and zones of the proclaimed town(s) linked to the selected suburb. |
|
| Search Fields: |
|
| Step 1 & 2: Province and municipal suburb. |
|
| The search function will assist you if you do not know the correct spelling of the suburb. You can type in the first part of the name and the system will give you a list of possibilities to select from. Type in at least the first three letters of the word. |
|
| Example: |
|
| If you are looking for Gauteng / Hatfield, select Gauteng and enter 'Hat' in the suburb field. Click on FIND. Hatfield will be available in the suburb list. The suburb list will have the suburbs listed without an extension or zone breakdown. |
|
| If the search cannot find the suburb, it is not on the system, or your address might be incorrect. You can submit your address so that we can check it for you. |
|
| Step 3: Narrow search range (optional) |
|
| Select the Transfer Date Range. Transfers for a three-month period will be provided from the selected month and year. The dates when the properties were transferred in the Deeds Office are used. The default is set to the last three-month period of available transfers. |
|
| Example: |
|
| If July 2003 is selected, transfers for July, August and September 2003 will be displayed. |
|
| Select the Sold Price Range. This is optional and will default to all transfers with no sold price limit. |
|
| Example: |
|
| If R1 to R900 000 is selected, only transfers where the sold price is from R1 to R900 000 will be included in the report. |
|
| Step 4: Verify |
|
| The final search criteria will be displayed. If you agree, click on Search to continue. If you would like to start over, click on Reset. |
|
| Step 5: Search |
|
| A list of the proclaimed town(s) associated with the suburb and the surrounding area will be displayed for freehold and sectional title transfers. The number of transfers found will be displayed. |
|
| You can use this information to decide if you would like to buy the report or not. Click on the 'Buy' button to proceed. If no transfers were found, or too many, go back to the Search page and change your search criteria, or narrow your Sold Price Range to lessen the amount of transfers. Please remember that a large amount of transfers might take a few minutes to download. |
|
| Step 6: Buy |
|
| Mobile Merchant handles all transactions. The cost of the report will be displayed before you buy. |
|
| Step 7: Display report |
|
| The report will be downloaded and displayed on your PC screen (1024x768 display setting recommended), and will be e-mailed to you. |
|
| The interactive map tools are available with the on-line report version, which enable you to zoom in to stand level and zoom out to province level. The pan facility makes it easy to move to another section of the map. Please be patient when a new map layer is downloaded. The map image currently displayed on the PC screen will appear on the report when it is printed (preferably in 'Landscape' page layout). |
