He increased my rent by 80% illegally. He cut my water. He threatened me. Most tenants would move. I hired a lawyer. I took him to the Magistrate Court. It took eight months. I won. He was ordered to refund and compensate. Tenants have rights. We just do not know them. We are bullied because we are ignorant. Have you ever legally challenged a landlord? Or do you just pack and leave?
