Selling a house: Municipality surprised me with a huge rates bill: What can I do?
Case #: 18-47332 Submitted On April 27, 2018 Category: Elder Law and Guardianship
“I am in the process of selling my house. I’ve approached the municipality for a rates clearance certificate. They’ve now informed me that I have an outstanding amount of more than R100,000 on my water account which they say has run up over the last 10 years because I was charged on estimated amounts and not actual metered amounts. I’ve made sure to always pay my account every month, and now I have to pay this. Surely this cannot be right?”
