Which stupid choice that yours is not worse than?

Abeg enough of your cry over a fraud and bigot con man electoral loss

NoToPile:


Shikena.

And some instead of some tenants to negotiate increment with abeg consider us they will be carrying shoulder high.


And some tenants have always owed even before the economy became bad, so those set will never move landlords in these times, it is those who have always been consistent you will consider if the tides turn for them.

PointZerom:


I am a landlord too, it is wrong to disturb a tenant for one year rent under this economy. Only in Nigeria will you see tenants paying up front. At least 6 months rent is ok for now.

chopnaira:
Only if we had a credit check system. Landlords would be able to properly screen their tenants.

He, therefore, served the residents notice of tariff increase from N195.00/kilowatt to N250.00/kilowatt, citing a market survey showing a few estates that supply 24-hour power where tariff is now N350.00/kilowatt, which is about 79 percent increase from N195.00 per kilowatt.

Any landlord expecting 100% payment will tell Nigerians if he paid for all the building materials used on that house up front.

Though the friction between landlords and tenants is more pronounced in low-income settlements where most tenants are struggling with meagre income, the middle and high-income areas also have their own version of the friction, usually arising more from default in paying service charge than rent.

Serviced estates have also been hit-hard by rising costs, especially energy, which has seen managers of these estates mark-up power tariff and also reduce hours of power supply down to 12-14 hours.

The price of diesel has jumped to N1,300 per litre due to oil subsidy removal which has affected prices of consumer products coupled with the naira devaluation and the high inflationary trend.

Managers at serviced estates are, expectedly, pushing the increase in the diesel price to the residents who are also battling rising food prices, children’s school fees, increased transport costs and other service charges.

An anonymous estate manager, told the residents that it was getting pretty difficult providing power to the estate because proceeds generated from the purchase of electric token could not cover the cost of their monthly power expenses.

He, therefore, served the residents notice of tariff increase from N195.00/kilowatt to N250.00/kilowatt, citing a market survey showing a few estates that supply 24-hour power where tariff is now N350.00/kilowatt, which is about 79 percent increase from N195.00 per kilowatt.

Group CEO, Global Properties and Facilities International (PFI), MKO Balogun confirmed to LEADERSHIP that , “yes, power cost has gone up as well as other costs, including employees, materials and consumables. All these are impacted by the current inflationary trends as well as changes in the cost of living.”

President, Nigerian Facility Managers Association, Olalekan Akinwunmi also affirmed that the situation was challenging, such that, every fabric of services has really gone up, saying, ‘the diesel cost and general mains supply are not encouraging service apartments and the occupants are not happy with their managers.’

In all these circumstances, mediation and conflict resolution experts advise that landlords and tenants should conduct themselves maturely by not going to court to settle a dispute or disagreement over house rent or poor attitude of one towards the other as has been the case over the years.

They said parties to such disagreement or dispute should settle it within themselves, noting that, some landlords normally take their tenants to court to recover their property and/or outstanding rent while some tenants visit the court to seek protection from unjust treatment from landlords.

“As much as practicable, landlords should not take their tenants to court and vice versa; there are more viable options for settling any dispute or disagreement between these parties. Landlords and tenants should always see their relationship as those of husbands and wives and therefore, should not take one another to court,” a property lawyer, who pleaded anonymity, advised.

Similarly, Chairman, Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS), Nigeria, Gbenga Ismail, said the rent default has been high, noting that; “What we have experienced is restructuring, paying in instalments or monthly. We have also experienced rent reduction from existing levels in both commercial and residential sectors.

“Right now, the landlord can’t even be picky. Priority is to rent out at a lower rent so that quality tenants could be attracted. You will be surprised that those that have the ability to pay are not always those that you may want to rent your properties. But with the economy, one cannot really afford to be over bureaucratic.

MasterTeeUSA:
what a statement...a typical tenant with tenant mentality. Why not go and build your own house or move to a cheaper alternative? Your village is there too. Isn't the landlord paying his own bills...this is why fewer and fewer people are building and rent will continue to increase...you can delay but it will catch up to your children who with this mentality might remain tenants too.
