Important information about estate living
Of course, living in one of Durban’s beautiful estates holds many benefits, but don’t forget that you’re responsible for ensuring that the rules are adhered to, too. Just as living in an apartment block means you’ll need to follow the body corporate rules, estate management rules and regulations must be abided by. Each estate may have different rules, so check to see you’re happy with the estate guidelines before you sign an offer to purchase. It’s all in the name of ensuring a happy, flourishing community. That’s something Durban estate living offers you and your family, with ease.
