We need this so badly. We are currently paying two Homeloans because we cannot move a few hundred metres down the road to an empty house. The financial impact on citizens is huge.

Good

There will still be many tears in this once beautiful South Africa endlockdownSA

We really need this. My mother repainted her flat after her tenant moved out. It is standing empty at the moment, and she relies on the income.

Its not like they'll be more than 5 people, what's wrong with moving people out or into a home?

Or those selling properties.

This is bad

OscarMagud Go get yours brother.

I can’t even move, I’m waiting for my beautiful residence. The attorneys are also on pause. Can we get 7 days like the others. And allow tenants to move in as well

Seems like some people are moving 😆
