The documents requested by a landlord from a tenant received a strong reaction on social media. The landlord asked the tenant for a Findeks risk report, a letter of good conduct from the previous landlord, a criminal record, and a salary slip. This situation has once again brought to the forefront the relationships between landlords and tenants, as well as the challenges faced by tenants.
As the housing crisis in Turkey intensifies, the documents requested by landlords from tenants are drawing significant public backlash. A recent advertisement that spread rapidly on social media highlighted this situation.
REQUESTED DOCUMENTS CAUSED SURPRISE
In an advertisement published online, a landlord requested documents from a potential tenant, such as a Findeks credit score report, a letter of good conduct from the previous landlord, a criminal record, and a current salary slip. These demands are at a level that almost rivals the conditions for bank loans, further complicating the already difficult living conditions for tenants. Social media users harshly criticized these types of requests from landlords, stating that they violate the right to housing.
REACTIONS ON SOCIAL MEDIA GREW LIKE AN AVALANCHE
After the advertisement became a trending topic on social media, users flooded in with reactions. Some comments from users included: "They even said it's justified, thank God I have my own house, but these requests are completely against freedom, they can never ask for such things."
