Annette Laing, The Most Inhuman Rental Agency In Africa!

This is by far the worst and most inhuman rental property agency ever. I will not recommend them at all, even if you think renting from them would be your dream or ideal home to stay. We are experiencing a global pandemic where most people in the country have lost their jobs and income. I had moved into the property with my wife 5 days before lockdown, a total rush. Apparently Annette laing does not do that, but i guess because we were forking over R18000 upfront they could bend a few rules. I had emailed them 3 months in advance to terminate my contract as i wont be able to pay rent and i dont want to lose on my deposit. This meant i was still paying full rent, unemployed for 3 months. This did not phase Annette laing. My wife and i have waited almost two months and not one person has viewed the place, we set up our own viewings for the place and when asked Annette laing for documents needed for the applicants, they were not prepared to assist. They instead told us that the people have to apply through them. That is nonsense. I have tried setting up mewting with their rental agents, Samantha, but she has no interest in assisting and blatantly ignores our request for a meeting. Clearing showing us that we are not important. This is alarming as there is no humanity what so ever in their business or the way aby of then conduct themselves. Try calling Annette laing and the receptionist cant even help, what do her duties entail if she can't get an agent to contact a tenant, but instead gives us the run around. Again, i will not recommend them at all. If you have a property that you would like to rent out, dont uae Annette laing anls an agency as their number 1 priority is money. Very inhuman. I hope this sheds some light on by far the worst peroperty agency in south africa. I wish i didnt even give a star, they dont deserve it.
