Serious Compliance Concerns: Alleged **** FFC at Jawitz Bloemfontein Branch

I am writing to formally raise a serious compliance concern regarding the Bloemfontein branch of Jawitz Properties.

There appears to be credible evidence indicating that the Principal’s Fidelity Fund Certificate (FFC) may be falsified or invalid, while agents operating under the company may not hold valid FFCs either. If this is indeed the case, it would mean that individuals are potentially operating in the real estate sector without the required regulatory authorization.

Numerous complaints regarding this matter have reportedly been submitted to the Property Practitioners Regulatory Authority (PPRA) by various parties, including lawyers, homeowners, tenants, and other companies. Despite this, there appears to have been little to no visible action taken to address these concerns.

The matter has also begun circulating on social media platforms such as Facebook, which further highlights the growing concern within the community and the property industry.

This situation is deeply concerning for property practitioners who comply with regulatory requirements, as well as for members of the public who rely on licensed and compliant professionals when dealing with property transactions.

I trust that this issue will be taken seriously and properly investigated. I am prepared to provide supporting information or documentation if required to assist with a thorough investigation.
