Shu Tinglan first said this to appease Ms. Chen. The landlord really had no right to ask her to move out.
Ms. Chen was originally angry because of the rental issue, but she became even more angry when the trainee lawyer said that the landlord was also a victim. Fortunately, Lawyer Shu was professional enough and could present evidence realistically.
After Shu Tinglan saw that she relaxed a little, he continued
: “After the rental platform exploded with donations and escaped, I have received many similar cases. There are generally two solutions. One is to go through legal procedures and resist the landlord and refuse to move out; the other is to negotiate with the landlord and take a step back.
.”
She also did not say which of the two methods is more appropriate. She did not give an answer. She only analyzed the situation and let the parties concerned think about it first. This is a negotiation technique. If you insist on your own point of view at the beginning, the parties will not agree and find out.
Various questions are asked to refute you, and you cannot understand the real needs of the person involved.
Ms. Chen said: "It's impossible for me to move out. I paid rent for a year, and my children go to school next to me and finally transferred to another school. I don't want to move frequently and affect my children's studies."
"Well, if you go through legal procedures to protect your rights, you have a greater chance of winning. After all, the landlord entrusts the platform to help with leasing. There is a contractual relationship between the landlord and you, and she has no right to evict you. But as a result, some landlords will do some extreme actions.
, such as cutting off your water and electricity, or knowing that you have children in school, deliberately beating gongs and drums at the door to affect your children's learning."
Shu Tinglan is not an alarmist, but has contacted Ms. Chen’s landlord. The landlord made it clear that many of her friends did this. Most tenants were unbearable and there was no use calling the police. In the end, they had to admit that they were unlucky and move out.
This is a very real problem.
"Is it so difficult that there is no king's law? I have paid rent for a year, and I have only lived here for half a year. So the tens of thousands of dollars left for the remaining half year have been thrown away in vain?"
"The landlord said that we can negotiate, and she can make appropriate concessions on the rent for the next six months."
Ms. Chen didn't want to negotiate. If she wanted to negotiate, she wouldn't have to consult a lawyer. She just felt that after I paid the rent for one year, I would have to live there for one full year.
The landlord's position is that I have only received half a year's rent from the platform, so naturally you are only allowed to live there for half a year.
In the process of communicating with Ms. Chen, Shu Tinglan knew that she was loose, so he continued
: "If you choose to go through legal procedures to protect your rights, I can start preparations right away, but you have to be mentally prepared, as it will be more time-consuming, labor-intensive and even costly. If you choose to negotiate with the landlord, I can call the landlord now.
Communicate about specific matters. My personal suggestion is to negotiate a compromise with the landlord.”
"The landlord asked me to pay the rent for the second half of the year." This is something Ms. Chen cannot accept.
"I'll call her, please wait."
Shu Tinglan took her mobile phone and went outside to make a call. In fact, before coming to see Ms. Chen, she had already communicated with the landlord and convinced the landlord that both parties would take a step back and only collect three months' rent.
The landlord was very confused at the time.
Shu Tinglan advised: "Her children are only in second grade and will stay with you for at least 4 years. You drive them away now and find tenants in the meantime. If you rent them out after one month, you will lose one month's rent."
, and in the next four years, if the tenants were changed several times in the middle, the loss would be far more than three months."
"Also, if the other party goes through legal proceedings, they don't have to pay you a penny. Do you really have the time to go to her house every day to cause trouble?"
Shu Tinglan has worked as an aid before and has handled many trivial cases. Her experience is to cut through the mess quickly. It is best not to go to court if you can solve the problem through negotiation, as the time cost is the most expensive.
