It is expected we will move from Phase1 to Phase 2 or more of restrictions.

 

Good.  Whatever it takes.

Financial help for renters would be good.

 

The landlords are already getting mortgage payments deferred by the bank, but I bet they still want their rents.

Given times - pay something - affordable in good faith.

 

It will all come out in the wash - things will eventually get back to ' normal '.

 

Landlords are not renting elsewhere - all are in the same Ark.

Don't know about your experiences with landlords.

 

Daughter's landlord can be a real swine.

 

Unless someone tells him to back off, he'll be howling down her door   riot act smiley.gif

 

Through the agents, of course.

 

They're just as bad.

 Thank you Mr Hooker, you're not really the best

If she is paying her rent on time why is he hassling her?

I'd like to see non-essential retail close for at least a few months,they're mostly running at a loss right now anyway.. I admit my reasons are selfish, I want my daughter to be safe at home

2 days late and/or $20 short.   It's happened.

 

She laughs cos they can't take her to the tribunal for that, but it's still a hassle.

 

And yet, she can't get him to fix anything.

 

Expects the lawns/gardening to be done, but refuses to supply a green Council bin for it.

 

And before you say she should move, she likes the house and location.

 

You know yourself, being a single mum is not easy.

 

edit:  This month's and next month's rent are going to be hard.  Not much money coming in now.

Can she apply to council herself for a green bin? I dunno much about them, we dont have them here.  No need to use a grass catcher when moving the lawn, just leave it on the ground, makes great mulch.

 

Yeah being a SM isnt easy at all   ..... been there done that    .... But paying the rent late is not a great idea either

 

 

 

She tried.

 

The owner has to apply quoting the council rates #

 

If you can't manage some months, you can't help but be late.

Yes I am expecting that to be tabled Deb, could be wrong.   But today at our NSW coastal plaza most of the general and clothing retail shops were yawningly empty  and many closed already.   .They have removed all the tables and chairs from the Food Court.   The plaza will have to remain open as 3 major supermarkets are there.  But I think most everything else will close. Very sad.

But imo Australia needs to be more draconian certainly NSW does where the curve is nearly shooting off the page.
