By virtue of the structure and/or operations of our monthly rental services, defaulting of rents usually don't apply. However, if we have to evict you from your rental property, we follow the applicable local laws to the latter.
The Rent Act on the Recovery of Premises by a Landlord
The Rent Act 1963 (Act 220) (hereinafter referred to as “the Act”) provides the conditions under which a landlord may recover possession from a tenant or that may lead to the ejection of a tenant from the premises.
Premises is defined by the Act under Section 36 as: “any building, structure, stall or other erection or part thereof, moveable or otherwise, which is the subject of a separate letting, other than a dwelling house or part thereof bonafide let at a rent which includes a payment for board or attendance”.
According to the law, no order against a tenant for the recovery of possession of the premises or ejectment shall be made by a competent court unless at least one of the conditions below is satisfied. These conditions include non-payment of rent, subletting without the landlord’s consent, using the property for illegal or immoral purposes, and causing damage to the property among others.
