Hiring a civil mediator to handle your landlord/tenant disputes may be the best choice just because it will settle your argument in a civil manner with as little involvement with authorities as possible. A mediator is like the “middle man” during an argument that brings down the level of intensity in terms of being reasonable for both parties. What is also great about a civil mediator is that both parties can save money instead of taking it to trial.
A civil mediator is beneficial in landlord/tenant disputes because you are able discuss the dispute and address the issues that are important to both parties. This often results in repairing the relationship so that the tenant does not have to find a new home and the landlord does not have to forego rent while searching for a replacement tenant.
Sometimes a tenant has an unexpected financial hardship which prevents the tenant from timely paying rent but this does not reduce the expenses the landlord has in the upkeep of the property. Mediating these types of disputes may make it easier for both parties to understand the other’s situation and result in payment plans and other priorities and resolutions that benefit both the tenant and landlord.
