Download Community Schemes Ombud Service Act & Regulations

The Community Schemes Ombud Service (CSOS) Act and its Regulations establish the framework for resolving disputes and promoting good governance in sectional title schemes, homeowners’ associations (HOAs), retirement developments, and other community schemes across South Africa.

Understanding the CSOS Act is essential for trustees, managing agents, and scheme executives who are responsible for ensuring fair management and compliance within their communities. The Act sets out how disputes can be lodged, the powers of the Ombud, and the obligations of schemes to register and contribute to the CSOS levy fund.
