Estate agencies misleading the public

TheManageroftheNamibiaEstateAgencyBoard(NEAB) FestusUnengurecentlyexpressedhisdisappointmentwith thewayestateagentshandletheirclientsduetotheclient's lack of knowledge on how estate properties should operate andtheircodeofconduct.

AnestateAgency,4UPropertieshasrecentlybeeninthenewsafteritwasliquidated and ordered to stop operating late last year after numerous complaints of alleged defrauding were received by the board from members of the public (tenants and landlords)datingbackto2021.Allegationswerethat4UPropertiesallegedlydonot givedepositmoneybacktotenantsastheyshouldhave,whichUnengusaidisacommon practice in Namibia from estate agencies in the sense that they always find somethingorthereisalwayssomethingbrokenorsomepaintingneededtobedoneso they come up with these things and that is the problem that NEAB is having, that estateagenciesdonotwanttopaybackdeposits.

Earlierthisyear,NEABrequestedlandlordsunder4UPropertiestoterminatetheir mandateswith4UPropertiesandfindanotheragencytomanagetheiraffairs,andto communicate such to their tenants. NEAB further requested all tenants to cease communicationandpaymentsto4UPropertiesandinstructedthatcommunications andpaymentsshouldbedirectlymadetolandlords.

WhenNamibTimescontactedUnengutogetclarityonthematter,Unengusaid4U Properties is currently not operating, “However we have received information that Mr Ryno Du Plessis (Owner of 4 U Properties) is working with Christian Thiart (ThiartProperties),andhemaynotdothat.Mr DuPlessismaynotdothatbecausehis fidelity fund certificate was withdrawn.” NEAB received about 17 to 20 cases or complaintsagainst4UProperties.

Unengufurthersaid,uponhisinvestigation,whenhevisited4UPropertiesOfficesin Swakopmund,therewerenosinglefilesorleaseagreementsorsalesagreements,etc. It is based on that reason that I went back to the disciplinary committee and that is whentheirfidelityfundcertificatewaswithdrawn.

Unengusaid,“Mr DuPlessisjusttoldmethathehandedoverallhisclientstoMr Chris Thiart of Thiart Properties Investment and that he is now busy working on those, which is very wrong. 4 U Properties was supposed to inform all their clients thattheyarederegisteringandthereisaderegistrationformwithNEAB,theymust thenderegister,partofthederegistrationisclosingtheirbusinessandtrustaccounts andthenpayingoverthebalancestothecorrectpeople.Afteryouclosethosetrustand businessaccountsyougivethatinformationtous,andwewillthencloseyoudown appropriately.”

AccordingtoUnengu,onlyafteranestateagencygivesbackthetenantsorlandlords whatisduetothemcantheagencytellthelandlordstochooseanyestateagencyof their choice, “so only at this point should 4 U properties have promoted Thiart Properties.Youcannotforcesomeonetoworkwithanagency,maybeanotheragency willprovidebetterservice.”

“So,oneoftheallegationswereceivedregardingDuPlessisisthathefailedtopay back deposits and another allegation we received from the landlords is that the landlordsdonotgetpayments.Landlordsgiveovertheirpropertiesto4UProperties andthen4UPropertiesreceivetherentfromthetenants,thereisproofthattenants pay the rent into 4 U's account, which I am also very unhappy with because the contractisbetweenlandlordandtenant,thereforetherentmoneymustbepaidbythe tenant into the landlord's account and only after seven days or whatever time is indicated and the tenant has not paid, that is when I send the estate agent to my propertytogofindoutwhymyrentwasnotpaid.Moneymustnotbepaidintothe estateagencyaccountandthentothelandlord,thatisverywrong.”

Anotherallegationmadewasthat4UPropertiesreceivedmoneyfromthetenantsand never paid it over to the landlords. Unengu further said they received queries that whentenants,landlordsandevenestateagenciesthatusetoworkfor4UProperties asktheagencyformoneyduetothem,theagencyinformsthemthattheyareunder investigation and that the NEAB is busy with audits and only when NEAB is done will 4 U Properties be able to pay the people, Unengu said there is no truth in such allegations, “These people are misleading the public and members of the public should make sure they are dealing with registered estate agencies.
