Most Johannesburg property owners and interested parties use the online system to view and/or object against the entries contained in the City of Johannesburg’s General Valuation Roll (GVR) 2023.
With an average of more than 3000 daily users on the GVR2023 online system, majority are those who have opted to use the system from the comfort of their homes or offices, rather than physically visit any of the selected 13 Customer Service Centres.
The City recently opened its Valuation Roll, inviting residents to view, inspect and/or object against any category or new property value. Residents and interested parties have the option to object by either using the online system or at any of the dedicated Customer Service Centres, where they will be assisted by the valuers. Interested parties have until 31 March 2023 at 15:00 to object against any category or new values of their properties.
Kgamanyane Maphologela, the spokesperson for the City’s Group Finance Department says, since the online system has been opened, the City has noticed more people embracing the online system over the traditional walk-in customer service centres to log their objections.
“We have seen a spike in terms of the residents using the online system. We continue to urge our residents not to wait until it’s too late, to object to categories and new values of properties should they have the evidence to support their view,” says Maphologela.
According to Maphologela, on the 24 February 2023, a total of 3683 users were recorded on the day. Out of the total users, at least 877 objected to the new values of their properties online, while only 137 objected at the walk-in centres.
