BUDGET 2017/2018

Minister Pravin Gordhan’s Budget Speech on Wednesday 22 February 2017 saw slight tax relief for property transfers, as the Transfer Duty threshold has been raised to R900 000 from the current R750 000.

The new rates will be applicable to Sale Agreements signed as from the 1st of March 2017.

Below is the new and old Transfer Duty tables, as taken from SARS’s website:
