Drafting of Commercial Contracts - PRL5901 Assignment 2 2025 (Unique
Number: 185367) - Due 3 September 2025; 100 % TRUSTED workings,
Expert Solved, Explanations and Solutions.
FACTS: Your client is Mrs B and she approaches you for legal assistance
regarding the following: She has purchased an apartment in Cape Town from
X (Pty) Ltd, company that specialises in the development of sectional title
residential estates. Mrs B lives in Johannesburg. Mrs B wants to rent the
apartment out to suitable tenants and would like the following terms to be
part of the contract between her and a tenant: • A tenant must be between
the ages of 30 and 40 years. • Mrs B will not be liable for any damage
caused to the property of the tenant in the apartment for any reason, even if
it can be shown that the damage can be attributed to the fault of Mrs B. •
Mrs B has the right to summarily terminate the agreement at any stage
without providing reason, including if she decides to sell the apartment. •
Only agreements for 2 years or longer will be considered as Mrs B does not
want a high turnover of tenants. • If the agreement is cancelled by the
tenant, the tenant automatically will forfeit the security deposit. BRIEF: 1
Advise Mrs B on the content of the agreement that she proposes. 2 Draft a
suitable agreement for Mrs B for the purpose of renting out her apartment.
1. Legal Advice to Mrs B
Mrs B’s proposed terms raise several legal issues, particularly under the Rental Housing Act 50
of 1999, the Consumer Protection Act 68 of 2008 (CPA), the Constitution (equality
provisions), and common law of contract.
(a) Tenant Age Restriction (30–40 years old)
Problem: This amounts to unfair discrimination on the basis of age (see Constitution s
9 and the Rental Housing Act). It would not be enforceable if challenged.
