Hilda Laubscher Attorneys and Conveyancers has been specialising in property transactions since 2005. We built our business on three pilars: ETHICS, EXCELLENCE and PERSONAL SERVICE.
An asset in terms of the Eighth Schedule to the Income Tax Act includes any fixed property or any interest therein of whatever nature. CGT is applicable to all assets disposed of on or after 1 October 2001. It does not matter whether the asset has been obtained before or after 1 October 2001. It is however only the gain which is subject to CGT from 1 October 2001. A certain amount of gain on a Primary residence determined from time to time is excluded from CGT.
A primary residence:
This means that the property is sold as it stands. This clause applies to your transaction unless you are a developer. The SELLER is in terms hereof not liable to the PURCHASER for any defects in the property, whether visible or not, unless the SELLER knew of defects that are not visible (latent defects) and did not bring them to the attention of the PURCHASER.
Accurate and speedy turnaround times for transfers: On average our turnaround time is less than 2 months for a transaction.
We provide an excellent, ethical and professional service. We do the right thing at the right time in an excellent manner.
Your transaction is not being handled by a paralegal or legal secretary. You have direct access to and each transaction is handled personally by the owner and director of the company, the Conveyancer.
Since the Conveyancer is directly involved, disputes are eliminated or resolved at the earliest time possible.
You can sign the transfer documents in the comfort of your own home. You don’t need to come to us; the Conveyancer can personally come to you.
You are informed of each development as it happens via e-mail and receives a user-friendly weekly report on the progress of your transaction.
Seeking excellence means choosing to forge your own sword to cut through the limitations of your life…” ― James A. Murphy
