Housing misery of about 500 Delft residents and six elderly beneficiaries will be something of the past when the Western Cape Provincial Housing department grants the residents with title deeds to their properties.
MEC Bonginkosi Madikizela is expected to hand the deeds officially to residents during a ceremony later today.
He says beneficiaries should be reminded of their role in taking responsibility for maintaining their houses and discouraging the sense of state dependence.
Residents expected to receive the legal ownership to their properties include those who lived in the houses for over twenty years.
Department spokesman Zalisile Mbali says residents were deprived of benefits which title deeds holders are entitled to such as claims on property and other bank related benefits.
The ceremony is scheduled to take place this evening at the Delft Civic Centre.
