AFHCO PROPERTIES IS RIPPING PEOPLE OFF

I entered into lease contract with Afhco Jan 2015. Before I signed the contract I was concerned about the area where the shop was. Alan told me that there was no need to worry, the area was very good for business. I then asked him who was using the shop before and why did he leave. He told me that, the guy used the shop for 7 yrs & his business was doing well. He left because he was relocating to London. Hearing this, I had confidence and I took the shop. He told me that they were going to give me 2 months free to fix the shop. I used R10000 to fix the shop & I realized that the 2 months free thing, was not true. They just shifted the contract start date by 2 months. I was still going to pay for 12 months. Secondly, when I opened the shop, there was not even one item bought for two weeks from my stock. People from the area advised me to look for another place, there was no business there. In my research I found out that the guy that was there before me, was not there for 7 yrs and he is still in town. I met him & he confirmed that afhco misled me to take the shop. When I called Alan he was rude & kept on saying leave if you want. I want my R30000 back. They are ******, period.
