In order to enforce any House and Body Corporate Rules, the
Tenant is required to be familiar with such Rules. In terms of the Rental
Housing Act 50 of 1999, whenever a Lease Agreement is reduced to writing, a copy of the relevant House or Body Corporate
Rules MUST be annexed to the Lease Agreement. This requirement is unfortunately
often overlooked. If a Tenant has not had sight of the Rules, he or she cannot
be expected to comply with them. As such, it is essential that such Rules be
annexed to the Lease Agreement so as to ensure that they can be enforced.
