AfriGIS Deeds Data
AfriGIS turns property data into real-time decision intelligence
AfriGIS provides one of South Africa’s most trusted and comprehensive Deeds data and property intelligence solutions, enabling organisations to make confident, data driven decisions across property, finance, risk, and location.
Our Deeds data forms a national property intelligence layer, connecting ownership, transaction history, financial exposure, and spatial context into a single, enterprise ready dataset.
What Is Deeds Data?
Deeds data consists of legally registered property information sourced from the South African Deeds Office, including:
- Property ownership and transfers
- Sale prices and transaction history
- Bonds and property linked finance
- Legal property attributes and identifiers
Because it reflects who owns what, where, at what value, and with what financial exposure, Deeds data is one of the most foundational datasets in any property driven economy.
When properly structured and continuously maintained, Deeds data becomes a powerful decision support asset across both private and public sectors.

On its own, Deeds data explains property ownership.
Combined with AfriGIS location intelligence, it enables organisations to understand:
- Where risk concentrates
