ITR12 rental income summary
In South Africa, rental income is declared in the rental income section of your ITR12. RESI produces a year-end summary of gross rental income and allowable deductions — bond interest separated from bond capital, rates, levies, and repairs all correctly categorised. Hand it to your accountant or use it to complete your own return.
Questions
A unit is any rentable space with its own tenant and lease — a flat, a house, a room, or a lock-up. If it has a separate tenant and a separate rent amount, it is a unit.
Most landlords add their first property and tenant in under 15 minutes. If you have your lease documents ready, the concierge service can set up your full portfolio within 48 hours.
No. RESI is for you as the landlord. Your tenants receive automated SMS and email reminders — they do not need an account or an app.
Yes. When you add a tenant for the first time, RESI sends them a brief introduction letting them know their tenancy is now managed through the platform. The notice explains that their landlord remains responsible for their tenancy and that they may receive future communications through RESI — such as rental receipts, payment reminders, and lease documents. Your tenant does not need to create an account or take any action.
Yes. RESI is built for South African law. When you add a tenant, they are informed that their information is being processed and for what purpose — in line with POPIA's notification requirements under Section 18 of the Act. Tenant data is held securely and used only for the management of your tenancy records.
Yes. The Rental Housing Act requires that tenant deposits be held in an interest-bearing account for the duration of the lease. RESI tracks the deposit amount, the agreed interest rate, and the accrued interest — and generates a compliant interest statement on demand.
If no joint move-in inspection is conducted and recorded, the Rental Housing Act may forfeit your right to make deductions from the deposit at the end of the lease. RESI prompts you to record the inspection and flags the risk if it has not been done.
The Rental Housing Act sets strict deadlines — 7, 14, or 21 days depending on whether there are amounts owing and whether an inspection was conducted. RESI tracks the deadline from the date the lease ends and alerts you before it lapses.
