Re: Entered Dispute with LL in SCT - What are my odds and counter offer?

I highly doubt she won't show up. Haha. She's rather experienced in court from all the documents that she has submitted. I am well prepared to compensate, to be honest. But it just doesn't feel right anymore. Probably just the tip of the iceberg. Fingers crossed for the hearing, for sure. Never bee...

Re: Landlord did not renew lease

URA is not to be messed with. They will bring the hammer down. As you don't appear to have a written or valid lease you could be asked to move out by the police if they are called IME (as you may be considered to be a trespassser). To prevent this keep records of rent payments and any texts or what...

Re: Landlord did not renew lease

Thank you so much @therat. We will continue looking for rooms now and I hope URA will still investigate even if we move out and she find a replacement. Her behavior overall is something she should work out.

Appreciate your time and effort helping us out.

Re: Landlord did not renew lease

Thank you @therat. Follow up question, will there be a chance we be deported or have our pass revoked due to this? The old man is a local btw.

Re: Landlord did not renew lease

If the Unit has temporary partitions installed, it's likely that it has already exceeded the cap even before the new tenant. Worse case scenario, you can let the landlord know you are going to check on the cap limit for that specific unit. If it is an HDB flat then contact the HDB. If it is a shoph...
