TESTIMONIALS
Bernard Haupt
I have been impressed with Marc’s consistent delivery of high-quality property management services. Marc is conscientious, well organised, flexible, and reliable. For a small fee, Marc offers guaranteed cash flow for a limited period which I have tested. In terms of communication, we use whatever is most effective to communicate such as email, mobile, Skype, etc. I have no reservations in recommending him. Thanks Marc.”

I met Marc from HOUSES4RENT in August 2009 when I needed an agent to help me rent out my property in Woodstock, Cape Town. I was impressed by Marc’s professional approach and his understanding of my needs as a landlord. This is because he is an investor himself.
Since my property has been occupied throughout, net rental payments have been made always on time and in full and he did not hesitate to contact me to discuss any problems that arise.
Marc has found the balance between advocating for the rights and needs of the tenant, including a reasonable market-related rent, and the requirement of the landlord to have their investment well taken care of. I would advise anybody that needed help in the residential rental market to contact Marc from HOUSES4RENT.

Marc Lunau from HOUSES4RENT has been responsible for managing our house in Observatory since October 2009. We mainly hired him for finding a tenant and letting the property during times we are overseas. But Marc did far more. We are very happy that we have found him to manage our property.
After we left South Africa in 2005 a former friend of ours was looking after the house and rented it out. Unfortunately, things did not go well. Before we decided to hand over management to a professional, management of the property from overseas became more and more of a nightmare for us. Once the house was vacated by the former tenant we had to deal with huge rent arrears, unpaid city council invoices, and damaged property. The house was in such a bad condition that it required major renovations.
We contacted Marc when the former tenant was still in the house but refused to pay any rent. Marc accompanied us in the process of dealing with the tenant. He gave us advice, made pictures of the property, and voiced our interests to the tenants. Finally, we were enforced to employ a lawyer, but we had the peace of mind that everything possible was done to avoid the escalation. After the house was finally vacant Mr Lunau took over the responsibility of the property renovation. Before acting he always questioned us in detail to agree on the course of action and to consider special requests. Whenever possible we received at least two quotes from different companies. Prior to final payment, we received photos of all work done. Now we are happy that our property rented out again and we are certain that it is in good hands.
It is for us of great advantage that Marc makes use of modern means of communication like email, skype, and fax. He responds swiftly and with great care and represents our interests foresightedly and conscientiously. Thus we warmly recommend the outstanding property services of HOUSES4RENT.

I have been using Marc from HOUSES4RENT for some years as rental agent for one of my properties and have found the experience to be very different to any other agent I have worked with. He has a no-nonsense approach to getting things done and has made it a pleasure to be a landlord once again. Besides that, the rental guarantee HOUSES4RENT offers really sets my mind at ease. I will be moving my other properties over to HOUSES4RENT when the leases expire and have recommended Marc to many people and will continue to do so.

I gave Marc Lunau from HOUSES4RENT a call based on a recommendation. I can safely say that since then my life is much simpler in terms of managing my property. HOUSES4RENT has handled all matters from advice on renovations, sourcing a tenant to providing statements and updates on the condition of the house in a timely and very professional manner. The peace of mind offered by HOUSES4RENT guarantee against defaulting tenants is invaluable. If you are looking for a one-stop solution to property management I would recommend HOUSES4RENT.

Marc has proven himself to be a level headed person, very business orientated and a successful business owner. I would recommend him to anyone who needs advice and his service with property matters.

I am absolutely thrilled about the performance of HOUSES4RENT. Before I started to work together with HOUSES4RENT I had commissioned another company with the care of my house with 8 flats, but I was unhappy the whole time. I then started the cooperation with HOUSES4RENT in September 2014. From this moment on I found a partner who supports me with all my problems and ensures that all my rent incomes arrive at the right time.
I can say that the cooperation with HOUSES4RENT was one of my better decisions and I regret that I did not start the cooperation with HOUSES4RENT at the beginning of last year, but now I know that I have found the right partner.

Thank you for excellent management throughout the years. I will certainly be in touch again for your letting services for a third time should we become proud 2nd home owners again in the future.

I have made use of Marc’s services from HOUSES4RENT since 2011 and can recommend him and his team for residential property management work. If I had to make the original decision again today, my choice would be the same.

Dealing with Marc and HOUSES4RENT has proved to be efficient in every sense of the word – from acting speedily to securing the right person for our needs and only after thorough background research. Marc is also patient in explaining and clarifying how transactions and the management process works which is really appreciated by first time landlords.

I have known Marc Lunau from HOUSES4RENT since April 2009. I met him shortly after relocating to Cape Town from Johannesburg, whilst attempting to secure accommodation through his agency HOUSES4RENT. Marc impressed me with his professionalism, punctuality and prompt execution of commitments whether in person, telephonically or via email – which is a significant advantage for any young professional. All of my interactions with Marc, from the interpersonal to the legal and financial, have been seamless and hassle free. It has been a true pleasure working with Marc and he has set a very high standard against which to measure his peers.

Having dealt with numerous other agencies, I can honestly say that HOUSES4RENT offers a service one does not easily find as a tenant. Marc and his team treat their tenants with respect, consideration and a high degree of professionalism. They are open and honest in their communication, and in the three years we have dealt with them, there has never been any problems.
Inspections are done regularly, with ample prior notification and with respect for their tenants’ privacy. Their contractors’ maintenance work is of a high standard and the team is so trustworthy that we felt comfortable enough to give them the keys to the house and go about our day. I can highly recommend HOUSES4RENT to anyone looking to rent a property.
