Deposit refund
Been trying to get deposit since 2020. The agent who managed the rental moved from Pentaprop to new agency. Ari from Pentaprop has just ignored all correspondence from me and the agent. It's been years now trying to get the deposit back. Until now, we are still trying to get the deposit back

Maladministration that's indistinguishable from *****
I used Pentaprop to manage my unit in Cape Town. When Arie asked me to replace the couches the tenant was complaining about, I wired R12,400 to their account. I was assured on several occasions that the couches were purchased and waiting at the supplier. A new tenant moved in with their own furniture. After a year of pressuring Mr Arie Willem Korf for either an invoice of the couches so I could contact the supplier for a refund, or a refund from Pentaprop, Arie said he spent the money on cleaning up the unit. I further pressured Arie for invoices and a breakdown on what the money was actually spent on and got ignored. Another scenario, I paid over R5,555 to settle outstanding rates and taxes which Pentaprop never paid, nor notified me that it was months behind. I had to find out from an old neighbour who was being threatened by a debt collection agency. Pentaprop then paid the rates and taxes from the rental income instead of the money I wired and it's been months now since I requested they refund the money with no luck. Since the new tenant moved in, they moved in with their own furniture and Arie was just like, btw, the new tenant is moving in with their own furniture, I've removed your furniture. Since this place was geared as an AirBnb before, it has everything from curtains to furniture to cutlery, to washing machine, dishwasher, etc. I've been trying to get a list things removed so I could send somebody to liquidate everything. Estimated cost of items removed is ~R40,000, maybe even more if I had to replace it. Since I had to fire Arie and Pentaprop, I've been trying to get them to transfer the tenant's deposit of R20,000 + interest to the new managing agent. So far I've been ignored. One of the things Arie claimed that was done during the cleanup of the unit was removing the dead air-conditioning unit. The new managing agent asked me yesterday what they should do with the dead air-conditioning unit. There are also complaints from the tenant about things Arie said he would fix that I was never notified about, nor was it fixed. 1: I want my R12,400 back 2: I want my R5,555 back 3: I want the tenant's R20,000 deposit + interest refunded 4: I want a list of what was removed and access to where it is stored so I can have it picked up and liquidated, or I'd be happy with R40,000 which should cover a portion of replacement cost of what was in the unit. I'll be pressing ***** charges if this is not resolved soon.

WORST ESTATE AGENCY EVER!!!
I wish there was a way to give a rating of ZERO because that is what this company deserves. I used Pentaprop to rent out my properties and I am still waiting for my tenants' deposit to be returned after months of lies and deceit from Arie Korf.

Avoid, avoid, avoid
One of the worst experiences of my life. Lies, poor service and no chance of getting your deposit back without legal action. They are not registered with the PPRA, so no accountability at a regulating authority. Use them at your peril.

Compassionate and thorough service
Excellent service. I had to relocate to Durban from Parklands North quite urgently in November 2020. Corné found a suitable tenant for me within 3 days who stayed on for almost 2 years. The tenant had a baby at some point and they short-paid a month or two, but it did not affact me as they would advance some of the funds to me until they could recover the shortpayment from them. When I decided to sell my property, there was thorough communication throughout the process from Estelle, the selling agent. I had to pay an amount in towards the sale, and Arie agreed on an arrangement to pay a portion of the commission off over 3 months since I just had a baby myself. They treated me and the tenant with great compassion throughout the years and always tried to accommodate all parties involved to the best of their capabilities.
