Where to get Contact Details of a Property Owner

Have you ever driven past a property and wanted to know who owns it and possibly contact this owner to make an offer on the property? Getting property and owner details is quite easy as this can be done on our website. This will give you all the information on the property including the owner, price paid, bond registered, endorsements as well as the property history (if recorded at the Deeds Office).

Getting the contact details of the owner is unfortunately a different story. In the past if was quite easy as there was no privacy legislation or POPI (Protection of Personal Information) Act. Anyone could get this information. Unfortunately it is not the case anymore. If any company claims that they can provide contact information, then they are misleading the public as this is not publically available information and you need a prescribed purpose to get this type of information.

So what can you do if you need the contact information of the owner. Well the only real option is to go and knock on the door of the property or to write a letter and post it to the address of the property. That said, you still need to do your homework if you want to buy the said property. It is much better to go to the owner with a solid offer once you have done all your homework. That is the exact reason why we provide Property Information directly from the Deeds Office providing you with all the information on the property including Price Paid, Owner Details, Bonds Registered, Endorsements including Interdicts and restrictions on the property as well as the property history.
