The real estate agent asked us at the beginning of the year if we wanted to renew our rental contract. We said yes now she's selling it.
You know how difficult it is to get rentals in Windhoek especially pet friendly rentals.
We have pets and because of that people already don't want to consider us.
Now at the beginning of the year the real estate asked us if we wanted to renew our contract, we said yes on email.
Now suddenly a month ago she informed us she's telling us the owner is selling the place.
It took us 2 years to finally found this rental.
In a safe complex that's pet friendly.
She will only give us 2 months to move out if they find a seller.
I know people can sell, but it makes me feel she did us wrong, why didn't she tell us at the beginning of the year they also never gave us a renewed contract since the time she asked if we wanted it renewed and we've been living here month to month.
So they could get out out anytime they want if we don't have an actual contract.
I had such a bad experience with this estate agent and the owner but I don't know how we will manage to get a new rental in 2 months even 6 months time.
Windhoek rentals aren't even posted people just give it to people they know, I have seen and heard this before.
They didn't even advertise the place we are currently in but they found people to come view it.
I don't know what to do, feels like I'll be homeless in a few months even sooner due to fewer rentals being posted.
Not those houses that go for 30k and up. That's the rentals they post.
