They turned the place into a dump and did a 'runner' with 3 months rent owing.
She agreed to pay over and above the rent in the first place to secure the property.
If she's paying more than was asked, surely some leniency is not too hard.
After all, the landlord is getting deferred mortgage payments.
He hasn't had a problem with the lease so far.
Also, I think the real estate agent is the one stirring the pot.
The go-between is always the problem.
Daughter had to put her youngest into high school this year.
That's what's put her so far behind.
It cost more than a month's rent for new uniform, fees and a new school laptop.
As it is, the poor kid only has one set of uniform to wear. He should have a spare.
And he's growing like a weed - will need new everything soon.
I do what I can, but can't support her financially.
Kazumi, you can't feed kids just 2 minute noodles for weeks
Any more judgements, folks?
So having an opinion is now be judgemental? Sheeeeese
I was of the understanding that the gov was offering financial assistance to those who we self employed?

OK - we are all understanding - the Gov - will assist.
Will it be soon enough.
I don't have a mortgage - I don't pay rent - but for those that do - sheesh - where is it coming from.
NOW.

The gov't has a package for small businesses who employ people.
Maybe there's something for self employed, but I haven't found it.
She'll have to track it down on MyGov.

MyGov? All I can say is best of british. I registered with it ages ago when things were 'normal' and foundit a nightmare.
