Parow Home Ownership Office
About
specialised services
The Home Ownership Office only provides services for those who have purchased a delayed transfer property, a saleable rental unit or a serviced site from the City. For any other housing-related queries, visit your nearest
housing office.
The Parow Home Ownership Office provides a range of specialised housing-related services to the City of Cape Town, which enable the transfer of ownership for purchasers of delayed transfer properties,
saleable rental units and serviced sites, including:
Debt management support
If you have purchased a delayed transfer property, and you need to apply for indigent support or rates relief, we will assist. Visit the Home Ownership Office and request a confirmation letter.
The confirmation letter will be submitted on your behalf to the Revenue Department, stating that although you are not yet the registered owner, you have purchased a delayed transfer property and registration is pending. This will allow you to qualify for the rates relief.
Deceased estates support
We provide the next of kin of deceased home-owners with the necessary support needed to report the death at the Master of the High Court. The Master of the High Court must appoint an executor in order for the property to be transferred to the original purchaser and/ or spouse.
Ownership transfer
If you purchased a delayed transfer property, saleable rental unit or serviced site, we will facilitate the ownership transfer process. Once the ownership transfer process is complete, you will be issued with a Title Deed as proof that you are the legal owner of your property.
Subsidy applications (EEDBS)
The Enhanced Extended Discount Benefit Scheme (EEDBS) is a National Housing Programme subsidy intended to motivate and facilitate the transfer of public housing stock (delayed transfer properties, saleable rental units and serviced sites) to qualifying occupants.
If you qualify, you will receive a discount on any outstanding debt associated with your property (purchase price, services, rental, loans), and in some cases your debt may be written off in full depending on your monthly income and other qualifying criteria.
