FAQs
Common questions
Can foreign nationals buy at The Polofields?
Yes. Non-residents may purchase South African property in their own name. Funds must be introduced through an authorised dealer bank and recorded as foreign capital so proceeds can be repatriated on resale. Non-residents typically qualify for a 50% loan-to-value local bond.
What is payable in addition to the purchase price?
New off-plan developments carry no transfer duty — VAT is included in the listed price. Buyers pay bond registration costs where a bond is raised, plus a first levy contribution and municipal deposit on occupation.
When is occupation expected?
Practical completion and first occupation are programmed for Final phase Q2 2027, subject to the standard construction contract provisions.
Is my deposit protected?
All deposits are held in a Section 78(2A) interest-bearing attorney trust account in the purchaser's favour until transfer, and the development is registered with the NHBRC.
Do you assist with letting after transfer?
Yes. PrimeStone Rentals offers a full letting and management mandate covering tenant placement, compliance and monthly reporting at 8% of gross rental.
