Dear Joburg Resident,

Your property value could be rising by as much as 70%. That means much higher rates.

The City of Johannesburg’s 2018 Valuation Roll was released in February which means you only have until the 6th of April to lodge an objection.

With less than 2 weeks to go, this is what you can still do:

  1. Understand your property's current market value
    There are numerous ways to gather evidence on what your property is valued at:
     
    1. Use an online service.
      We recommend the Lightstone Valuation Report as it is recognised as a credible source for an Automated Property Valuation and only costs R92 (excl VAT). If the Lightstone value is less than the Municipal value, the Lightstone Valuation Report can be used as evidence in your objection. This report uses recent sales activity to accurately understand how a market in an area is performing, and should be your first point of call in establishing your home value. The Lightstone Valuation Report can be obtained by signing up for a once-off report on the Lightstone website:

Check your property value with Lightstone

    1. You could also work through your estate agent or independent property valuer.

       
  1. Understand your property's City of Johannesburg 2018 Valuation
    The roll has been made available for public inspection on the City of Johannesburg website:
     
    View your property's value on the COJ 2018 Valuation Roll
    .
  2. Lodge an objection if you believe your property is overvalued
    Any objections to these valuation increases can be lodged at the City of Johannesburg Municipality before 6 April 2018 at 15:00 by registering the objection on their website:

City of Johannesburg evaluation objection.

Kind regards,
Joburg Ratepayers Alliance Team
