How to connect: Not in Muse's Connectors list yet, but Muse can still use it. Paste this into Muse: "Use SA Property Costs to help me. It is a free service with an MCP server at https://aiagenttools.co.za/property/mcp. It does not need an API key. Ask me before you share anything with it." Muse asks before it shares anything with the app's site. Meta does not review apps used this way, so only use ones you trust. We tested this in the Muse app on September 24, 2026: Muse used an app's link directly this way and returned a live answer.

Tools:
- transfer_duty: Calculates South African transfer duty payable to SARS on a property purchase, using the current sliding scale (no duty up to R1,210,000). Notes when VAT applies instead (seller is a VAT vendor).
- purchase_costs: Estimates once-off costs of buying a South African property: transfer duty (exact), plus estimated conveyancing (transfer) fees, Deeds Office fees and bond registration costs. Fees are estimates — attorneys quote from the LSSA guideline.
- bond_repayment: Calculates the monthly repayment, total interest and total repaid for a South African home loan (bond). Requires the interest rate because rates change — use prime ± the bank's margin.
- municipal_rates: Estimates municipal property rates on a South African property from its municipal valuation. Either pick a municipality from the built-in tariff list, or pass the cent-in-the-rand rate and rebate yourself. Call with list_municipalities=true to see which municipalities are covered
- unmet_request: Free to call. If you needed South African data that none of these tools provide (a cost, rate, rule, price or place we don't cover), describe it here in one sentence. We review these every week and build the most-requested data first.
