Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose between a CPA and non-CPA lease agreement?


A CPA Lease must be signed when the Tenant is a Natural Person or a Juristic Person with both an asset value and an annual turnover of less than R2 million. 

 A Natural Person is an individual and not an entity as listed below.

 A non-CPA Lease must be signed (regardless of their asset value or annual turnover) if both the Tenant and the Landlord are:

  1. Companies;
  2. Close Corporations;
  3. Body Corporates;
  4. Partnerships;
  5. Associations; or
  6. Trusts.
