50 Delft residents are now homeowners

50 Delft residents are now homeowners.

Tertius Simmer, MEC for Human Settlements handed over 50 title deeds to residents of Delft. The Department’s Enhanced Extended Discount Benefit Scheme made this handover possible, this scheme promotes home ownership of before 1994 government-owned rental housing. The goal of this handover for the department is to prioritise the elderly for housing opportunities in Western Cape.

Residents were able to benefit through the scheme as sale agreements with debtors who did not honour their agreements, were cancelled. Voorbug, Eindhoven, The Hague and Roosendal are where the 50 beneficiaries hail from.

People have been waiting for years for this opportunity and finally their patience has been rewarded.
