AI Review Summary
Based on recent customer reviews, Seeff Properties faces significant criticism across its rental management and sales operations. Deposit refund disputes are a recurring frustration, with tenants reporting inflated deductions, unexplained charges and prolonged delays in receiving funds. Poor communication is widespread, including unanswered emails, ignored calls and unresponsive agents. Several buyers reported properties handed over in unacceptable conditions with undisclosed defects. Transfer delays have caused severe financial strain for sellers. While isolated praise highlights individual agents like Sandy Hammond and Adam Langley for professionalism and transparency, the overwhelming sentiment reflects deep dissatisfaction with accountability and after-sale support.

When looking for preperty, if you don’t suite the home owner or agents “preference” all communication is ignored
When looking for preperty, if you don’t suite the home owner or agents “preference” all communication is ignored. The company doesn’t have the courtesy of responding to emails or numbers they’ve listed on their adverts.

SANDY AND SEEFF YOU'RE, AN OUTSTANDING TEAM
Buying a Property is a milestone in anyone's life and doing so requires someone who's not only experienced but also good natured. Sandy Hammond of Seeff fits this profile. She has been there from the start until the end. As the 1st time Home Buyer you appreciate timeous communication to know where you at in the process and what to expect. She did all that. To anyone in quest to acquire a Property let the experts (Sandy and Seeff) do it for you. Sandy you're the best. Continue helping others in the same way

Greedy Deposit ****mers
I'm so disappointed by the treatment I received from Seeff. I previously rented a property at Eagle Canyon Golf Estate, Honeydew Johannesburg through Seeff Property Group. The lease period was from 1 December 2024 to 30 November 2025. I lived in the apartment with my 10-year-old son, and my older son visited occasionally. The property was a two-bedroom apartment with a large balcony, which we converted into a third room. The monthly rental was R15,500 excluding utilities. I paid a total deposit of R17,000 to Seeff, made up of R15,500 for the rental deposit and R2,500 for utilities. I did not receive a pre-inspection checklist with my lease agreement. My utilities averaged approximately R3,500 per month. All rent and utility payments were made on time throughout the lease period. On the last day of my lease, I hired a professional cleaner and a company to repaint and do necessary touch-ups, including repainting dirty walls. I paid R4,500 for this work from my own pocket. During the post-inspection, I was informed that the property was not cleaned to the required standard and that one floor tile in one bedroom was scratched. I was advised that my deposit would be used to replace the entire bedroom flooring. I disputed this, as the tile was already in that condition when I moved in, and it is unreasonable to replace the entire floor for a single tile. Throughout December, my follow-ups regarding my deposit went unanswered until I escalated the matter to a senior at Seeff. On 13 January, I received a November utilities bill of R7,500, which is significantly higher than my normal usage. I also received an invoice of R9 224,00 for repairs, which I believe is incorrect and inflated. The utilities charges appear excessive. In addition, the painting invoice charges for four walls and ceilings (R5,439.00), whereas only two walls were supposed to be painted. The ceilings were never part of the agreement and are very high for anyone to make them dirty; one would require a ladder even to change a light bulb. I was unable to replace a bathroom bulb myself for this reason. Furthermore, the quotation does not mention flooring repairs at all. It appears that the landlord continues to find reasons to deduct from my deposit rather than refund it. This feels unreasonable and unfair. According to my agreement with the Seeff agent, she was to arrange a cleaner to wash the windows and stove, replace a light bulb I provided, and charge me only for painting two walls. I do not understand why I am now being charged for four walls (R5 439,00), ceilings that were not dirty, and inflated labour costs (2700). I received an email on 28 January 2026 advising that the landlord is entitled to charge any amount he deems fit and to appoint a contractor of his own choice. I was further informed that, from the R17,500 deposit I paid, I would only be refunded R887.

Seeff - Thank you Adam Langley
I had an excellent experience working with Adam Langley from Seeff. He was professional, attentive, and always willing to assist with any questions or concerns I had throughout the process. What stood out the most was how fair and transparent he was in every interaction—he truly ensured that everything was handled honestly and smoothly. I appreciate the great service and highly recommend Adam to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy agent.

Unendurable, heart breaking
**********,speechless Thought was a dream come true,but a nightmare awaits. This is my second attempt to capture the attention of seef properties Tulbagh, but nevertheless I'm not a white citizen. Bought a house from them in 2023,which was in a really bad shape, which they told me the poc would cover the damages in the house as the previous owner made additional comments about needs to be fixed.. It was never done. The agent, does not even have the backbone to come and look at the state of the property because you know what, commission has been paid. My insurance rejected all my claims and I am sitting with the mess. I've been tolerating everything almost 3 years now, I'm done.. First call tommorow, it's the PPRA, then it's litigation. What you have done to me is harsh and degrading. You are not above the law.. No one is. Sies seef properties Tulbagh
