A lady shared a distressing clip showing the bad living conditions she had been staying in while paying R4,500. The clip starts with her crying and walking through the backyard of the area she is living in while highlighting how messy and untidy the place is.
Trouble at home
TikTokker jalirose90 shared some details about the experience in the comments by saying:
"The agent promised to fix the problem but I don't see any progress. The owners will start cleaning the mess only to stop once the rent is paid."

One shot of the clip shows what seem to be vegetables scattered all over the ground which is then followed by a pig and garbage coming into view.
Getting to the bottom of things
One commenter wanted to get more details and asked her why she signed the contract if the place would turn out like this, to which the TikTokker said:
"Darling trust me it was a very nice clean place when I signed the contract then boom it was something I never imagined."
In another comment, the lady renting out the place stated that she signed a one year contract with the landlord and now she's stuck. She added that she has been living in poor conditions for three to four months now.
