NQF 4 RPL Real Estate Course

The PPRA (former Estate Agents Affairs Board) has regulated that all estate agents must comply with education regulation prior to renewing their FFC. To meet these tight deadlines, we have developed the RPL4 for real estate practitioners who have experience in the industry, and qualify as per the requirements.

To qualify for RPL in your NQF4 qualification, you must have been a registered FFC holder. You must have a South African ID document or permanent residency, a matric certificate that states you have passed Mathematics and two South African Languages, or NQF3 in mathematics and second official South African language. PropAcademy offers bridging courses for mathematics and literacy should you not have these qualifications. You will complete these bridging courses after completing your NQF RPL course, not prior.  External training in industry-related subjects is necessary, and you must be currently employed and active in the real estate environment.  To see if you qualify, click on the take this course button below to do a short quiz.

Duties of a Municipal Property Assessor in South Africa:

  • Monitor compliance with the Municipal Property Rates Act (MPRA)
  • Collect data on property.
  • Value single residential properties.
  • Facilitate the management of contracts and projects.
  • Manage queries, reviews, objections and appeals.
  • Quality assurance valuation rolls and data.

Why is there a need for Municipal Property Assessors?

  • To regulate the power of a municipality to impose rates on property (in accordance with section 229(2) of the Constitution);
  • To provide a uniform framework for regulating the rating of property throughout the country;
  • To exclude certain properties from rating in the national interest;
  • To make provision for municipalities to implement a transparent and fair system of exemptions, reductions and rebates through rating policies that are a product of collective participation of communities;
  • To make provision for fair and equitable valuation methods of properties;

Why Municipal Property Valuers play a critical role in local government:

The Municipal Property Assessor has a vital impact in helping produce a valuation roll, which is a database compiled in terms of the Local Government: Municipal Properties Rates Act No 6 of 2004, in which a Municipality stores the municipal valuations of all properties recorded on that particular roll. Every property in every municipality area should be on a general roll, but because properties are continuously coming into existence and ceasing to exist, and as such new rolls are created to include any properties that have not been previously recorded on another, prior general roll.

Each general roll is re-published once every few years, normally 4 to 5 years in Johannesburg, and the property values are updated at the same time. Depending on several factors, your property value may have stayed the same, increased, or decreased from the value contained on the last roll. The information on the valuation roll is used to calculate your rates and taxes each month.

How many credits does this qualification hold?

This qualification has 120 credits, which equates to 1200 notional hours (study hours needed to complete the course). SSETA requires 30% of the time spent studying to be in the form of face-to-face and to satisfy this need, we supply monthly webinars, which you must attend.
