Your score is not your compliance
What a high score doesn’t confirm.
The STRLCS assessment scores what you told us. It doesn’t check any of it. A high score means your self-report looks compliant — it doesn’t prove you are. Here are four things a score can’t see — and any one of them can flip your status the moment someone actually checks.
- Whether any certificate you have has since expired
- Whether the licence or registration you assumed was lodged actually went through
- Whether the supplier who issued your certificate is still accredited
- Whether you were absolutely sure of every answer — or made a best guess on one or two
A score suggests you’re compliant. Only a verification confirms it.
The R3,000 to R8,000 mistake most compliant owners don’t see coming.
You self-reported compliant. You display trust signals, you take bookings, you file taxes. Then something happens — a guest incident, a spot-check, an insurance query — and a certificate turns out to be expired, a licence was never lodged, or a supplier who signed off is no longer accredited. That’s the mistake nobody warns you about.
An expired certificate you didn’t know had lapsed
Electrical CoCs expire every 2 years. Fire compliance annually. Gas certificates renew on strict cycles. Most compliant owners don’t track the dates — until an insurer opens a claim, discovers a lapsed cert, and rejects the payout. Your compliance status: gone. Your evening: ruined.
A licence or registration you thought was lodged
You handed the paperwork to a bookkeeper, a property manager, or a previous owner — and assumed it went through. Half the time it didn’t. The application was returned for a missing signature and never re-submitted. You’ve been operating without it for months. You just didn’t know.
A supplier whose sign-off is no longer accepted
The electrician, gas installer, or fire tech who signed your certificate two years ago has since lost accreditation, closed shop, or been struck off the register. Their signature is now worthless. Your certificate is technically invalid. You’ll only find out when someone checks — and by then you’re at the back of the queue.
What you get
Your Property Compliance Report — personalised to your property, delivered in 14 days.
Most compliant owners assume everything is in order. Sometimes it is. Sometimes a certificate expired, a licence was never lodged, or a supplier who signed off is no longer accredited — and nobody spots it until it costs you a booking, a claim, or a fine. The report is the independent look that confirms what you actually hold — or catches what you missed, before anyone else does.
Every certificate you need
Specific to your property type, your city, and the gaps flagged in your assessment.
Every deadline that applies
Which certificates have hard dates, which have grace periods, and which are blocking others.
Who issues each one
The exact department, the exact counter, the exact vendor category. Names and contact details included.
The estimated costs
Certificate by certificate. What the market actually charges. Where owners typically overspend.
How long each one takes
Application-to-issue realistic timelines, based on actual municipal turnaround data.
Which one blocks the next
The dependency map. Get the order wrong and you restart. This map stops that.

Why the report is step one
Until we know what your property actually holds, we can’t confirm anything.
Being compliant according to a two-minute self-report is one thing. Being able to prove it — document by document, expiry by expiry, supplier by supplier — is another. Those are different things.
That’s why we built the STRLCS Property Compliance Report — an independent look at what your property actually holds, against what your property actually needs. R1,499. Delivered in 14 days.
Once we know what YOUR property actually holds — then, and only then, can we confirm you’re protected. Or tell you exactly what’s missing before someone else finds it.
Two roadmaps. Side by side.
Which one is easier for you?
Every compliant owner has the same choice from here. Carry on as you are and hope no one asks — or get the report and confirm what you actually hold. Here’s the honest picture of both.
Stay as you are
What most compliant owners do.
- You may have guessed on a question you weren't sure about
- When last did you actually check every certificate?
- Insurers don't trust anything
- Banks don't trust anything
- The government doesn't trust anything
- You'll only find out at the worst possible moment
So — are you 100% sure?
If yes — skip the Report. Take us direct to the packages and we’ll get you moving.
