3 years ago we took ownership of a newly house built by Montagu Property Group in the Eye of Africa golf estate. We are now spending over R140,000.00 repairing the walls, damp and cracks where (to probably cuts costs) inferior materials were used. The tops of all pa****t walls need to be waterproofed and all aluminium windows and door frames re-sealed. The exterior walls need to be repaired and repainted as they're peeling and the plaster is cracking. The bathrooms are full of damp and mould and the roof needs waterproofing. Sounds like this house is 30 years old instead of 3. Montagu has absolved itself of any responsibility even though all 3 quotes we got said "inferior workmanship and materials". We didn't report the defects within the stipulated time period (45 days of taking ownership) and therefore we are responsible for the defects. To give them some credit, they did remove building rubble we found in one of the blocked pipes after the 45 days. Btw they no longer build in "The Eye".

We moved into a complex managed by Montagu. 3-4 months later we canceled our contract due to horrible living conditions out of our control such as no hot water for a week. Problems kept coming up and soon we cancelled the lease. Management told us that the owner is going to keep the full deposit. We disputed it with Montagu and they spoke to the owner and she agree to give us half of the deposit. Two weeks later, Montagu has come back to us and has charged us for ridiculous things. Things that we had found in that apartment. They say we will only get R100 back from the deposit. This is completely ridiculous as Montagu is merely trying to cheat us out of our money. They never made an effort to take our complaints seriously from the beginning. If I need to name the people I have been assisted by I can as I honestly feel Montagu doesn’t tell you things when you move but take every opportunity take your money once you move out.

Shocking misleading sales initiative by the Montagu Property Developers with the complex THE VIEW in Fourways.<br> Offer to purchase was signed on the 16th Aug 2014. Deposit and cost were paid on the 21 August 2014.<br> Awaiting transfer of title deeds for a period of 6 mnths.<br> Various communications placed to Montagu and to the conveyancy attorneys Strauss Scher without any positive response regarding possible action in concluding the deal with registration of title deeds.<br> Enormous occupational rent expected (more than bond repayment) which makes it impossible to take early occupation.<br> Currently living with parents awaiting transfer. <br> This developer and attorneys are taking all buyers for a ride by not completing the transaction and extending the transition period as long as possible.
