My landlord in Pietermaritzburg has given me an order to leave for 'renovations'. I've read what I can online, but the rules are confusing and different sources contradict each other.
I'm hoping that someone with experience in housing or tenant rights in KwaZulu-Natal could spare 20-30 minutes to explain the process, the deadlines and the documents I should collect.
I have my lease, all communications and photos organized. I'm happy to share them privately. I can't pay for a lawyer, so any guidance on free services in KwaZulu-Natal would also be appreciated.
I hope life is good to you.

I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Please keep us posted. Love from Jerusalem.
Wishing you the best, Hendrik. I hope things turn around soon. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out.
Stay strong, Hendrik. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
