An Investment inCape Town's Hotel Market

Own the residence.

Participate in the hotel.

Choose how to use it.

Individual Ownership.Professional Hotel Operation.

The Delaporte offers a way to participate in Cape Town's hotel market through an individually owned, sectional-title residence.

Owners who join The Delaporte Rental Pool place the day-to-day operation of their residence in professional hands.

And from transfer, there is a clear starting point: a 9% net yield.*

Owners who prefer a different approach can choose to use their residence privately or pursue a long-term rental arrangement.

  1. 01Projected net yield 9%*
  2. 02Individual sectional-title ownership
  3. 03Professionally managed Rental Pool
  4. 04VAT-inclusive purchase price · No transfer duty
  5. 05UDZ & Section 13sex tax benefits for qualifying investors*
  6. 06Up to 28 owner-use nights per calendar year for Rental Pool participants*

Professionally Managed

Each participating residence forms part of The Delaporte Rental Pool, with the day-to-day hotel operation managed on behalf of owners.

Reservations, guest management, housekeeping, maintenance, marketing and revenue management are handled professionally, giving owners exposure to hotel income without having to manage short-term stays themselves.

Flexible Ownership

Joining the Rental Pool is one way to own at The Delaporte – not the only one.

Owners can choose to use their residence privately or pursue a long-term rental arrangement instead. Those participating in the Rental Pool can also enjoy up to 28 owner-use nights per calendar year, subject to the Rental Pool Agreement.

*Estimated 9% net rental yield is based on 65% occupancy and the assumptions set out in the investment workings. Actual performance may vary. Projected returns are estimates and are not guaranteed.

Built for Investors

A defined first year of rental income.

Owners participating in the Rental Pool can benefit from projected net rental yield of approximately 9%, based on the current investment workings and an assumed 65% annual occupancy.

Rental Pool income is professionally managed and distributed to participating owners in accordance with the Rental Pool agreement.

Projected returns are based on current assumptions and operating costs and are provided for illustrative purposes only. Actual occupancy, rental income, expenses and returns may vary.

A potential 11-year income tax allowance.

The Delaporte falls within Cape Town’s Urban Development Zone. Qualifying investors may be entitled to deduct a portion of the residence’s qualifying cost from taxable income over an 11-year period.

R2,000,000 residence: illustrative example

Qualifying amount
R1,100,000
Year 1 deduction
R220,000
Years 2–11
R88,000 p.a.

This is a deduction from taxable income rather than a direct rebate. The actual tax saving will depend on the purchaser’s applicable tax rate and individual circumstances.

The example shown is illustrative only. UDZ eligibility and the qualifying deduction depend on the purchaser's circumstances, ownership structure, qualifying costs and applicable SARS requirements. The allowance is a deduction from taxable income, not a cash rebate, and the actual tax saving will depend on the purchaser's applicable tax rate. Independent tax advice should be obtained.

An alternative allowance for qualifying portfolio investors.

Investors who own at least five income-producing residential properties in South Africa may qualify for the Section 13sex allowance.

Qualifying investors may be entitled to deduct 5% of the qualifying cost each year, providing an alternative tax benefit for qualifying portfolio investors.

UDZ and Section 13sex cannot ordinarily be claimed on the same qualifying cost.

Section 13sex eligibility depends on the purchaser meeting the applicable requirements, including ownership of at least five qualifying residential units used for income-producing purposes in South Africa. UDZ and Section 13sex allowances cannot ordinarily be claimed on the same qualifying cost. Independent tax advice should be obtained to determine eligibility and the appropriate allowance.

For qualifying VAT-registered purchasers.

The Delaporte’s purchase prices are VAT inclusive, with no transfer duty payable.

Where a residence is acquired through a VAT-registered entity and operated as part of the aparthotel, the purchaser may, subject to the applicable requirements, be entitled to claim qualifying input VAT.

Output VAT will apply to taxable rental income and future taxable supplies.

The ability to claim input VAT depends on the purchaser's VAT registration, ownership structure, intended use of the residence and compliance with applicable SARS requirements. Where input VAT is claimed, output VAT may apply to taxable rental income and future taxable supplies, and the VAT component will generally be excluded when calculating the relevant income tax allowance. Independent tax advice should be obtained.

Tax treatment and investment outcomes depend on individual circumstances and applicable legislation and requirements. Purchasers should obtain independent tax, legal and financial advice before investing.
