The key: get in touch early

Communication is everything. The landlord and manager handle things far more constructively when they know about the problem in advance than when the debt quietly grows. Silence leads to reminders, default interest and, ultimately, notice to quit.

Steps

What to do

  1. Contact us as soon as possible

    Write or call and explain the situation – what happened and what your outlook is. The sooner, the more options there are.

  2. We propose a solution

    Depending on the situation, a payment schedule, a deferred date or another individual arrangement can be agreed. The goal is for you to manage the debt and keep your housing.

  3. Stick to the agreement

    Keeping to the agreed instalments is essential. If circumstances change again, get in touch again – don’t avoid communication.

What long-term non-payment risks

Rent debt grows by default interest and the cost of recovery. With a debt equal to several months’ rent, the landlord may give notice to quit. That’s why it’s always better to deal with the situation at the very start.

The specific terms are governed by your lease and the Civil Code. We always confirm any individual arrangement in writing.
