Can You Be Evicted If You Pay Partial Rent? Know Your Legal Standing
Many tenants wonder about the consequences of paying partial rent during difficult times. At PM Attorneys, we understand how stressful situations involving rent payments can be, especially when you’re unsure about your legal rights. We will clarify whether you can be evicted if you pay partial rent and how our legal services can support you in such circumstances.
What Happens When You Pay Partial Rent?
Partial rent payment is a common occurrence, especially in financial hardships. However, paying only part of the rent does not automatically protect tenants from eviction. Under South African rental law, the landlord has the right to expect full payment of rent as stipulated in the lease agreement.
If rent is not paid in full, landlords can start eviction proceedings based on rental arrears. This is where PM Attorneys’ expertise in landlord and tenant law becomes crucial. Our attorneys provide clear guidance to help you understand your lease, negotiate with landlords, and protect your rights effectively.
