Since the finalisation of the valuation objections, Overstrand Municipality received requests of how many objections had been received per suburb.  It seems that there are individuals as well as groups that are under the impression that the number of objections received per suburb indicates that that specific area was singled out and valued incorrectly.  This assumption is not correct.  The reason for most objections received, were not to dispute the new valuation, but the fact that the objector will not be able to afford the monthly rates.

Unfortunately, the Municipal Property Rates Act 6 of 2004 stipulates that the valuer needs to determine the market value of each rateable property in the municipal area. The market value is defined as:  What a willing buyer will pay a willing seller for a property.
