Tshwane (Pretoria) valuation roll

The City of Tshwane values every property in Pretoria, Centurion, Akasia, Soshanguve, Mamelodi and the rest of the metro on its general valuation roll, and your rates are worked out from that value. Here is what the current roll says, how to look a property up, and how an objection works.

Free: erf number, township, last registered sale and imagery. No owner names.

ErfCheck reads the City of Tshwane roll for township and extension, erf, unit, extent and market value. Tshwane's roll rows carry no street address, so search by street address rather than by erf number alone.

How to object to your valuation

  1. Check the window. The general-roll window (closed 8 May 2026) has closed. Supplementary rolls follow; notices and the objection forms are on propertyvaluations.tshwane.gov.za.
  2. Get the form. Objections go in on the City's own form, one property per objection. City of Tshwane residential objection form (PDF). Online: the City's valuation portal. Notices and instructions: City of Tshwane valuations page.
  3. Give evidence, not a feeling. An objection succeeds on market evidence as at 1 July 2024: registered sales of similar properties on your street, in your scheme or suburb close to that date, and your own purchase price if it was recent. Defects the valuer could not see (structural damage, a smaller extent than recorded) count too.
  4. Keep paying rates on the roll value while the City decides. If you disagree with the decision you can appeal to the valuation appeal board; the City's decision letter explains how.

The R99 ErfCheck report puts that evidence on one page: the roll value, every recent registered sale on your street or in your scheme, your own transfer, and a plain verdict on whether the gap is worth contesting.

How the value turns into rates

Annual rates are the roll value, less any residential exclusion in the City's rates policy, multiplied by the rate in the rand the council sets in each year's budget (effective 1 July). A lower roll value lowers the bill in proportion. Try it with Tshwane (Pretoria)'s 2026/27 tariff:

Questions

Can I still object to the City of Tshwane GV2025 roll?
The general objection period (closed 8 May 2026) has closed. Supplementary rolls follow; notices and the objection forms are on propertyvaluations.tshwane.gov.za. An error of fact on your entry, such as the wrong category or extent, can usually still be raised with the valuations office.
Does objecting stop me paying rates?
No. Rates stay payable on the roll value while the objection is decided. If the value is reduced, the City adjusts the account.
When do the new values apply?
From 1 July 2025. Rates bills from then on use the GV2025 value.
What value is on the roll?
The market value of the property as at 1 July 2024, set by the municipal valuer by mass appraisal. It is not today's market value and not a bank valuation.
Where do I find my erf number?
On your rates account, your title deed or the SG diagram, or type the street address into ErfCheck. See how to find an erf number.

Roll facts are taken from the City of Tshwane's published notices. Check dates with the City before relying on them; ErfCheck is a record, not legal advice.
