Document background
The Resident Manager Contract is a specialized agreement used in South African property management contexts where on-site management is required. This document is essential when appointing managers who will both work and reside at the property, typically in sectional title schemes, residential complexes, or similar properties. It incorporates provisions from various South African legislative frameworks, including the Basic Conditions of Employment Act, Sectional Titles Schemes Management Act, and Rental Housing Act. The contract addresses both the employment relationship and residential arrangements, detailing responsibilities, remuneration, benefits, accommodation terms, and performance expectations. This document is particularly crucial for ensuring clear delineation of duties and rights in situations where the manager's professional and residential arrangements are intertwined.
