There are two types of matrimonial regimes: marriage in community of property and a marriage out of community of property.  

Formalising an Antenuptial Contract sets the terms of your marital regime and is intended to simplify such regime. It’s important to remember that an Antenuptial Contract must be formalised and executed in the presence of a Notary before you get married.

There are advantages and disadvantages to all marital regimes. The most effective way to find out what’s the best arrangement for you is to seek the services of a Notary. 

What Is Marriage In Community Of Property?

In this type of marital regime, assets and liabilities as well as profit and loss before and during the subsistence of the marital regime will form part of one estate.

This will limit the respective consorts (parties) legal stance to act in free will as there will be one estate henceforth. To learn more about the pros and cons, kindly contact AWD Law or an experienced Notary.

Marriage Out Of Community Of Property | What It Means

Within this marital regime, there are two primary options: with or without the accrual system. A marriage with the accrual system could be in your best interests, though a marriage without the accrual system may suit your circumstances better, dependent on your legal stance and requirements. As circumstances differ and one needs to mutually agree upon and make an informed decision with all facts duly considered.

To learn more kindly contact AWD Law or an experienced Notary.

Marriage Out Of Community Of Property Without Accrual

With this type of marital regime, spouses assets and liabilities, as well as profit and loss, remain separate and no accrual will apply in the event of death or divorce. You would be able to retain any assets you had or after getting married as there will always be two separate assets.

To learn more kindly contact AWD Law or an experienced Notary.

Only a notary can conclude and register an Antenuptial Contract. For professional assistance with your ANC, please contact AWD Law and receive a free property consultation to advise and prepare you, which will help you make an informed decision before you enter the property market.

  • Beste Andre en personeel. Dankie vir julle uitstekende diens met die verkoop van die geboue Klein Drakenstein en Cape Coral Die opvolg van e pos instruksies, versoeke en vrae was in elke geval dieselfde dag hanteer of minstens opgevolg. Dit was asof julle 24/7 beskikbaar was en gereageer het. Julle het selfs in meer as een geval die gemoedere tot bedaring gebring en `n modder gooiery voorkom. Dankie vir deeglikheid en die afhandeling van die hele proses in rekord tyd. Julle is 5ster! Dit sal vir my `n voorreg wees om julle aan te beveel by enige iemand anders.

  • Dear Andre, I want to bring to your attention how appreciative I am of the service I received from Patricia Erasmus throughout my dealings with her. She has been professional, courteous and often went over and beyond one can expect, to keep me updated and informed, on the status of my sales transaction. She was prompt, throughout my dealings with her and she would often contact me with feedback before I could ask about it first. It is not often that one experiences this dedicated work ethic and please note that her service is a positive contribution to your business.
