A Chronicle of Failure

Our building's management service has delivered nothing but abysmal performance. For months, we've been trapped in a financial fog, desperately seeking clarification on opaque repair invoices that remain unexplained despite our persistent inquiries. Their standard operating procedure involves stonewalling and evasion, forcing us into a relentless cycle of badgering just to elicit even the most basic acknowledgment. A Broken Promise, A Broken Lift, A Broken Trust The most glaring symbol of their incompetence is our perpetually malfunctioning lift. It's a source of constant frustration, offering little more than empty assurances and misleading updates. Every promise of repair has proven to be a fabrication, leaving residents in a state of perpetual limbo. Perhaps most egregious is their utter disregard for residents with disabilities, who are consistently left stranded and forced to navigate stairs due to the agency's callous indifference to their needs. Systemic Neglect and Zero Accountability In essence, we are living under a regime of systemic neglect. There's a profound absence of transparency, accountability, and basic professional communication. It's clear that the agency views residents with contempt, our concerns consistently ignored and our trust irrevocably shattered. This level of service is simply untenable.

Extremely Poor Service and Communication

The managing from Urang of our building has been nothing short of a nightmare to deal with. We’ve been waiting months for clarification on invoices related to repairs, despite repeatedly requesting detailed explanations. Their responses are either vague, delayed, or don’t come at all — and we have to chase them multiple times on a regular basis just to get any kind of reply. One of the most frustrating ongoing issues is with the building’s lift, which has been unreliable for far too long. We rarely receive updates unless we push for them, and even then, the information provided is often misleading or outright false. Promises are made but never followed through. Overall, the lack of transparency, accountability, and basic communication is completely unacceptable. It feels like residents are being ignored and misled. We deserve far better.

Urgent Action Needed

Urgent Action Needed: Urang's Negligence Causes Major Issues Our experience with Urang, our building management company, has been nothing short of abysmal. We are facing critical issues that have been left unresolved for months, coupled with a complete lack of communication and abysmal customer service. The most pressing concern is our non-functional lift, which has been out of service for three months. It took an entire month just to get the lift company to assess the issue. After a brief repair, the lift broke down again within a week. Despite repeated attempts to contact Urang to chase the lift company, we've been met with radio silence or, at best, sporadic and unhelpful responses. It often requires multiple residents to email them before we receive any sort of reply, which invariably consists of excuses rather than solutions. As a result, we are still without a working lift, causing significant inconvenience and accessibility problems for residents. Adding to our woes, our roof has been leaking for two years now, and Urang has done absolutely nothing to address it. We have received no updates, no proposed solutions, and no indication of a timeline for repairs. This ongoing leak is a serious structural concern and a testament to their complete disregard for property maintenance. Overall, the customer service provided by Urang is the worst imaginable. It is virtually impossible to reach anyone by phone; all communication must be done via email, and even then, responses can take weeks. This level of unresponsiveness and inaction is unacceptable for a company responsible for managing residential buildings. Urang's negligence is causing significant distress and inconvenience to residents. We urge them to take immediate action to resolve these critical issues and drastically improve their communication and customer service. I would give negative review if it was possible.

I've been working for Aluve of Urang…

I've been working for Aluve of Urang for 2 yesrs or so and have found her and the rest of the team to be very conscientious. They genuinely care about their clients !

Great service

Liezl Stals is helpful, competent and professional! Not only she took care of the issues in the building, but also, she was so kind as to keep the tenants informed by e-mail. Great service. Thank you!

Useless.

Useless. They are the most unhelpful, lazy building management I have ever encountered. A complete lack of urgency on a number of serious building issues. Staff turnover is incredibly high with a number of 'managers' being assigned to the same building in a very short period of time, none of which have successfully actioned any of the issues with the building raised by countless tenants, nor has anyone ever offered to take a semblance of responsibility or act with any urgency in resolving these matters. Avoid like the plague!

Chris Lombard

Chris (one member of the many Urang personnel) assigned to help manage our property has been consistently helpful, polite and responsive when a request has been raised. He listens and has stepped outside of his immediate responsibilities to help us. I appreciate the continuity of the service that he has provided us. He is the only member of the team that is reliable, without which foe is Urang would be a faceless organisation.

This company are a disgrace

This company are a disgrace, they seem determined to be as obstructive as possible. Whilst in the process of selling my leasehold flat that Urang are the management company for, I was informed by my solicitor in April 2023 that the management company had changed to Urang in October 2022. There had been no attempt by Urang to make leaseholders aware of the change which meant no services had been carried out to the properties and leaseholder were still paying services charges to the old company. For months my solicitor and I have been battling to get Urang to provide information and respond to enquiries and all they seem to do is pass the buck onto someone else. The only way I have been able to get any response is to send very strongly worded emails and even then their responses have been pathetic. Because Urang can't be bothered to do the job the leaseholders pay them for, my Freeholder is now annoyed at me and my solicitor because we contacted him directly under instruction from Urang. I am now under my doctor's supervision because of the stress this whole situation has caused me, I am now experiencing daily nose bleeds due to high blood pressure. I don't know how a company can get away with treating people the way they do, all I want to do is get on with my life but Urang seem set on ruining it!

Appalling property managers

Appalling property managers. Service charge increase of nearly 60% with extremely questionable methods of tracking delivery vs scope. Avoid like the plague.

Trustworthy

Competent professional management agency who can help provide solutions for leaseholders. In my experience Urang have been trustworthy and diligent with maintaining our block. We have had at least two very good property managers whom have been very helpful over the years.
