With South Africa’ s rental market expected to continue growing, Smee stresses the importance of ensuring that lease agreements are both legally compliant and properly structured.
“ A lease is more than just a document; it’ s a contract that safeguards your investment and sets clear expectations for both you and your tenant,” concludes Smee.
