The house has been bought in . We added a swimmingpool and Lapa. We also have a Carport and converted the garage into an office to work from home. Unfortunately we spent all our time on settling into working from home. We don't have plans on the carport or Lapa. The grass needs redoing on the Lapa roof. The facias need redoing and there are some issues with damp and cracking as a result of Dolomite and humidity. I did recently (in December) need to rewire the carport as there were open wires and the power in the office and kitchen kept tripping. I also replaced an old Vaal toilet and there is still two others that need attention. The kitchen is still 's with wood veneer and oak cupboard doors. Unfortunately the granite on the countertop which we replaced the old melamine counter top with. cracked from the wall to the end of the countertop. Tiles in the passage also cracked horizontally across the passage due to the dolomite. The house needs a repaint (painted in ) and the damp treated. The roof is leaking in the kitchen and office area. The putty is cracking on to East facing windows and on the west facing windows. We have Solar but its not ours it is rented from GoSolr at R per month, but the contract can be resigned with any new owner. It has brought down the electricity bill. The paving around the swimming pool is cracked due to dolomite. According to the Property Law I am compelled to mention these issues in writing. I have rewired the carport and replaced one of the three toilets which cost me R (I have the receipts). I replaced the rotten wood garage doors for R with steel (I have these receipts as well). The built in cupboards just need new fittings to close properly. Apart from these issues, it is a nice family size house with 3 good size bedrooms and two bathrooms. Built in about the early 's. Unfortunately my husband passed in December and the Estate also needs a valuation, but I would like to sell in about 6 months time when the Estate is settled. I would appreciate the valuations as soon as possible to get the Estate settled so that I can sell. I intend to move to Cape Town where I am sure I will be happy.
Hi there, I’m just reaching out to explore property management options for a house we own in Southbroom. My brother and I are currently in the process of taking over management of the property and are looking for a reliable company that could potentially assist with overseeing and managing the house going forward. At this stage we’re simply gathering information on what services you offer, how management typically works, and what your fee structure looks like. We’ll be down in Southbroom towards the end of the month, so it could also be useful to meet and walk through the property if that makes sense. Thanks in advance and look forward to hearing from you.
