The video attracted many views and comments from social media users who were shocked to see the damage. Many noticed that there might have been a water leak and advised her to check her property regularly. Some said she should request a deposit next time she gets tenants.

User @Tshepiso Mokoena said:

"That's why it is important to get a deposit: you inspect the place before a person leaves, and if your place looks as received, they get their deposit; if not, you use the deposit to fix your place."

User @Senamiey commented:

"You need to do checks every 6months."

User @blacq____child added:

"We need to normalise requiring people from Kasi to pay a deposit before they move in. Enough is enough."

User @Zozo80 said:

"Some people will never receive blessings from homeowners because of the tears they cause to their landlords. They take it easy, but it's true."
