Dont Trust Them

Stay away from this Rental Agent. There a reason its called DIC Homes, because they turn into real Dic's once your no longer renting from them, you will lose your deposit and they still hand you over for so called repairs.

I moved into a property at Brooklands lifestyle estate 3 in Centurion, upon viewing the place there was multiple nails and *****s still in the house and even a TV bracket from the previous tenant, i also asked about electricity avarage cost for the unit and was told because we only 2 people we looking at R1000 to R1500pm and that seemed to be in line with the R900 to R1200 we spend at current place.

After moving the first 3 months the electricity worked out about R400 per week so it was already more that expected, then on the 4th month we suddenly jumped to R650 per week =R2600 pm then i complained about it to the supplier of electricity Meter Shack, then it went down to R450 per week for couple weeks then sudden jump again to R1000 per week.

This is when i asked DIC homes to step in and assist as they are the Agent for the property, an electrician came and installed his own metering equipment to see the load on the unit, and was told ill get report, Never got a report.

Then it was time to renew my lease and i refused to sign a new lease due to the electricity charges and gave them 2 months notice as per their lease agreement. Almost a month after notice was given Johan phoned me one day and asked if we might be able to move sooner as he has someone interested to take the place, we then found another place and after i paid my deposit and phoning Johan to say we will be out at the end of that month got told that i now cant leave sooner, then told them they then may keep my deposit as im not gonna pay another months rent and R4000+ for electricity and was told thats fine. Only to get an invoice saying i still need to pay for repairs for nails and things i did not even put in the wall for R2800.

I refused to pay this as prior to moving in these nails and things was already on the walls.

Now they handed me over to some lawyer for this, yet when i stayed there i was told im one of the few good tenants they have.

So dont trust these guys, THEY ARE MONEY WOLFS
