Overview


Last updated: 04 February 2020

Jurisdiction: SA

Additional Resources: Help Card

 

PEXA now supports the ability to process a Part Tenancy Transfer in SA.

A Part Tenancy Transfer is used where there is a change in tenancy where at least one Proprietor on Title is remaining on title.

The transacting Proprietor on Title (transferor):

  • Is in a Sole Proprietor, Tenant in Common or Joint Tenancy ownership, and
  • Is transferring their ownership (part or whole) to:
    • An Incoming Proprietor currently not on title, or
    • A Proprietor on Title who is already on title.

    Note: If a Proprietor on Title is acquiring an additional share of the title, you won’t need to re-create them as an incoming party, but they must be represented in the Workspace.

In SA, you can use the Part Tenancy Transfer form to change the manner of holding. However, all Proprietor on Title parties are required to relinquish their full share on Title and added back into the Transfer as a Transferee, if they are to remain on Title.

 

Supported scenarios in PEXA

The following table lists the full scope of the transaction types that may be lodged electronically in PEXA:
