A stay-home policy has generally restricted income and as a result, tenants will not find it easy to meet rental needs. The simple knowledge of the fact that 80% of Landlords in Nigeria demand one or two years of full rent in advance is a breath of fresh air, there probably won\u2019t be so many debt cases during the lockdown.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">However, in situations where the rental fee expires during the COVID-19 lockdown, Landlords and occupants will have no choice but to reach an agreement.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-12155\" src=\"https:\/\/www.propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/30890585_616117948751177_6973384686483537920_n.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"551\" height=\"367\" srcset=\"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/30890585_616117948751177_6973384686483537920_n.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/30890585_616117948751177_6973384686483537920_n-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/30890585_616117948751177_6973384686483537920_n-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/30890585_616117948751177_6973384686483537920_n-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 551px) 100vw, 551px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\"><b>What if I want to move?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">Usually, moving from one house to another isn\u2019t such an easy decision to make. There\u2019s the concern of adjusting your finance as well as adjusting to your new environment, especially when kids are in the picture. The Coronavirus has currently tweaked the implications of moving from house to house, a possible fatal factor has been included.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">Regardless of the risk, we understand that there will be different categories of movers in this period. Apart from other possible reasons, the categories of movers may include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">Movers whose rent has expired and they already paid for an apartment prior to the lockdown;<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">Movers whose rent has expired and they have a choice of moving in with friends or family; and<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">Movers who are experiencing domestic violence.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\"><b><i>All things considered, your number one priority should be your health.\u00a0<\/i><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">Considering the current health situation, it is only advisable to move when it\u2019s essential. If moving can wait, we strongly suggest you hold on until the coast is clear.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">However, in cases where moving out is your only option, we advise you to follow these steps:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">Thoroughly sanitize every corner of the new property you\u2019re moving into.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">Consider transporting as much stuff as possible yourself.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">Contact a reliable moving company to execute the heavy lifting.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">Along with yourself and family, ensure each mover uses recommended hand gloves and nose masks.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">Practice social distancing and use hand sanitizers as often as possible during the whole process.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">Lastly, to avoid embarrassment and parting with money, inform the police about your plans to move.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\">Again, moving during the COVID-19 era is a major risk. Your health is highly important, so if it\u2019s not essential, we ultimately advise that you stay home.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Amongst all the recognizable downturns the real estate industry is currently experiencing, the Landlord-Tenant relationship is one delicate&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":31,"featured_media":12154,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_custom_appearance":"","csco_disable_excerpt_posts_layout":false,"csco_page_load_nextpost":"","csco_post_video_location":[],"csco_post_video_location_hash":"","csco_post_video_url":"","csco_post_video_bg_start_time":0,"csco_post_video_bg_end_time":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[38,467,32],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-12156","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-articles","8":"category-real-estate-advice","9":"category-real-estate-news","10":"cs-entry","11":"cs-video-wrap"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12156","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/31"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12156"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12156\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12157,"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12156\/revisions\/12157"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12154"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12156"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12156"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12156"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
