Are You Obligated to Pay Arrear Levies When Purchasing a Sectional Title Unit? Part 2
03 September 2024, Lizanne Maritz
Recently, the High Court and the Supreme Court of Appeal (SCA) were required to interpret Section 15B(3)(a)(i)(aa) of the Sectional... Titles Act 95 of 1986 in relation to a sale in execution in the case of the Body Corporate of Marsh Rose v Arno Steinmuller and others. The issue in the appeal is firstly, the statuses of the parties, consequently, whether the body corporate's reliance on the statutory embargo is susceptible to challenge and secondly, the High Court’s order, which irrespective of the interpretation given to the embargo provision, cannot stand.
