Trust a landlord to never show mercy on you especially during a dangerous month such as January. Dangerous because January has a way of making even the seemingly well off grumble and groan over dry pockets.
But despite knowing so well how hectic the first month of the year is, a Nakuru landlord will not give an iota of reason when it comes to his kodi ya nyumba or anything relating to rent.
You should therefore know some of their qualities just in case you are planning to relocate to Nax Vegas or planning to move out of your parents digz.
1.They don't refund deposits
As you move into a new house, your seemingly nice landlord will expect you to settle the rent and an equivalent deposit pronto. Of course, he will promise you how you will recover your deposit should you consider quitting his rental. But wait, no single landlord in Nakuru is always willing to forfeit the easy-come deposit. They will always complain of socket destruction or obscene graffiti meted out on their houses.With that they are always assured of retaining your deposit. However the not so crafty ones will always take you round in circles till you give up.
2. Lock your house should you delay in paying your rent
Though almost all landlords in the country have this ignominious habit, a Nakuru landlord enjoys it. In fact, they do it with an unmatched zeal. They will always add two huge padlocks to your already existing one before sticking a rather sadistic notice written in capital letters: "LIPA NYUMBA AMA UHAME".
So before you move into that beautiful plot or house, be prepared to encounter sadists in the name of landlords.
