In terms of the Constitution of South Africa, Nobody may be removed from their household, or have their residence demolished, in the absence of an order of a judge only made after taking into account each of the related situations. Absolutely no legislation could authorise unreasonable evictions.” PIE creates the process to be adhered to in the case of such removals.
Tenants Not Paying Rent
What must a person do whenever a leaseholder stops paying their renal commitments? Counsel an legal professional to set in motion eviction process? Acquire a debt ruling? Or perhaps get to an agreement with the renter which permits them to pay off what you are owed?
There certainly is nothing at all to stop a landlord from dispatching a command for the delinquent rental after the occupant has actually been removed.
Getting Tenants Out
Hold-ups coming from delayed action or flawed legal procedures often provokes extra legal expenses, loss of rent income and increased risk of damages to the residence.
Lease Agreements
Having a solid lease needs to have a infringement clause in it detailing the implications of breaching any one of the stipulations of the lease contract. It is then up to you just how much lenience you wish to exhibit thereafter.
Urgent Evictions
Section 5 of the Act provides for urgent evictions. Most importantly a lessor must demonstrate to a law court that there is and/or would be substantial injury to people (this may involve the unlawful tenants themselves) or even destruction to property in the event that the order does not get approved. An emergency eviction is so powerful, that it offsets the recalcitrant tenant or the prohibited inhabitant to get required by the judge to move out of the residential or commercial property in less than 24 hours, declining which the sheriff of the court is authorised to emphatically remove the illegal tenant from the residential property.
Time & Cost of Evictions

The rental debts retrieval process is usually set in motion in addition to, and operates in combination to the application of the legal eviction proceeding.
