Hello, my property manager/land lord is giving me push back on completing my TM30. I have indicated that this is required by law to do, but still getting pushback. I have to do my 90 day report next month. Any advice on what I should do.
Hi all, have a non visa related question and would really appreciate any advice. Pardon the long post.
I’m currently living in a rental house which has about 1 month left on the lease. A pipe recently burst while no one was home and basically flooded the entire interior. I called the agent immediately upon getting home and finding out about it and she sent a plumber to fix the burst pipe and cleaners to clean up the mess. I was told by the agent on that day that the landlord had been informed and was going to be responsible for all damages and cleaning incurred.
However the agent is now telling me that the landlord has completely changed her tone after speaking to her lawyer and has gone back on everything she had said. Not only is she not going to repair or clean up the mess, she is insisting we are to be responsible for everything. The landlord has sent us a letter through the agent demanding we repair all damages, clean up the property and to pay for it all. She has also mentioned that we do not have the option to move out prematurely because of this incident and if we do so, it would be considered breaking the terms of the lease and our entire deposit would be forfeited. According to the landlord, we are fully responsible due to our “failure to properly attend to and prevent the situation in a timely manner”.
To put the icing on the cake the landlord has also threatened to involve the police and to take legal action if we do not comply. She claims our passports will be confiscated by the authorities and we will not be allowed to leave the country until the matter has been settled. According to her, this is the law.
I am a foreigner who is retired here in Thailand and I’m honestly quite taken aback by her response. Could anyone here please offer some advice on my next step? Am I truly at fault for this? What should I do next?
Hello! My husband and I recently moved to Thailand and rented a house. The oner lady is very nice and upon signing the contract she went and submitted the TM30 and provided us a copy if it. Two days after we signed the contract we realized that the address in the contract doesn't correspond with the address of the house we live in and signed for but it corresponds the house across our street which belongs also the the sam owner (she actually live in the house right across our street). We brought this up to the agent and to the owner right away and they say that's ia not a big problem and that we can just scratch it with the pen but we explained that maybe this will affect us when we will apply for retirement extensions or when we do our 90 day report so the owner say that she will look more ino this and see what she has to do.
Please advise if this situation can affect our visa/extensions in any way?
