4-bed country home in Cape Town — ZAR 137,400/month

[alba_questions]

The monthly asking rent is now set at ZAR 137,400, which raises a practical question about how much lease information should be agreed before viewings. The property is a four-bedroom country home in Cape Town of about 175 m², available to a dependable tenant seeking a longer stay.

The deposit, start date and any included running costs still need to be settled with the lease. Enquiries are welcome about condition, transport, furnishing and maintenance arrangements. Please state your intended move-in date and preferred lease length when getting in touch.

At that monthly rent, prospective tenants will probably need the full cost picture before arranging a viewing. Is it furnished or unfurnished, and how are utilities billed? It would also help to state the preferred lease length, pet terms and what maintenance response a tenant can expect.

I agree on utilities, but I wouldn’t leave the deposit entirely open-ended for long. Even if it depends on the lease, applicants need enough information to compare the upfront cost. A practical next step would be to publish the proposed deposit, earliest move-in date and any charges included in the ZAR 137,400, then handle negotiable details after a serious enquiry.
