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. Advice on the Proposed Agreement
Dear Mrs B,
I have reviewed the terms you wish to include in your lease agreement. Here is my legal advice
on each point, keeping in mind the relevant South African law, particularly the Consumer
Protection Act (CPA) and the Rental Housing Act (RHA).
1. Tenant Age Restriction (30-40 years): This clause is problematic and likely unenforceable.
The Promotion of Equality and Prevention of Unfair Discrimination Act (PEPUDA)
