Tshwane house valuation: From R930k to R11m!
Why property owners must check Tshwane’s new general valuation roll.
A property owner in Wonderboom South, Pretoria, got the shock of his life when he recently received a notice from the City of Tshwane stating that the single residential house where he has been living since 1992 has been valued at R11 million, up from the current R930 000.
Wonderboom South is a middle-class suburb in the Pretoria Moot with big plots and lots of trees. Selling a house for R11 million in this area would be a rarity.
The owner, who asked to remain anonymous, says he has not made any big improvements that could justify the increased valuation.
Another Tshwane ratepayer and Moneyweb reader wrote on condition of anonymity: “I bought my house just over 5 years ago in Sinoville Pretoria (a very average neighbourhood) for R1 170 000. My City of Tshwane account values the property at R1 100 000. However, the proposed valuation (on the new general valuation roll) is R1 500 000! An increase of over R300 000!
