Behind on Rent? How You Can Stay Ahead of Situation
【R1】___________________
If you’ve lost your job or part of your income, your instinct may be to avoid your landlord. But it’s probably better to make contact and explain what’s going on. " I’ve been part of where landlords have been present, they’ve complained that they’ve reached out to tenants and aren’t getting responses," said Abigail Staudt, managing attorney of the housing practice. "If you’re going to pay late, not pay in full or pay nothing, landlords will find that out soon enough anyway," she added. Being upfront might pay off later.
【R2】_______________________
Often, tenants receive that first notice from a landlord, assume that there is no fixing the problem, and decide that they should pack up and move. In fact, in most areas, you don’t have to move until there has been some sort of legal finding against you and an officer of the law arrives to carry out any order of eviction. That means there may be time for you to figure out a solution that doesn’t require you to move at all.
【R3】________________________
You probably do not have the right to a lawyer if a landlord brings an eviction action against you. But you can retain one anyway, and possibly for little cost. Contacting your local Legal Aid office is a good start. Retaining a lawyer may make landlords more likely to negotiate. A number of reports have pointed to improved outcomes for tenants who have counsel. Even if you’re not able to fend off eviction, Ms. Staudt said, a lawyer may be able to negotiate more time for you to find a new place.
【R4】________________________
You do not get what you do not ask for. So talk to your landlord. There are different ways to reduce your costs: waiving rent, reducing rent or using a security deposit in lieu of your payment. A survey by Apartment List, the real estate listing site, found 39 percent of people not paying rent in full reported that their landlord had made some kind of concession. That figure had fallen from 45 percent in April, but it’s still worth asking for new terms.
【R5】________________________
Depending where you live and the details of the mortgage for the property you occupy, you might be protected from eviction, at least for now. Some landlords who have themselves put their mortgages into forbearance cannot evict tenants while they’re also skipping payments. A database of addresses that the National Low Income Housing Coalition created may help some renters figure out if their landlord must comply with the various federal rules. This is another area where a lawyer can help, because the rules can be complicated and some landlords don’t know them—or ignore them.
【R3】
选项
答案
A
解析
下文中出现的lawyer和Legal Aid office都与选项[A]中的legal help相呼应,故本题答案为[A]。要注意的是选项[E]Seek outside help“寻求外界的帮助”为迷惑选项,选项[A]Get legal help“寻求法律援助”更加贴合文中的关键词。
