It seems por needs help. (S)he comes across as a person possibly recently arrived in the country, without any local support network network and not a strong command of English. Previous posts suggest that por’s negotiating position may have been weakened if signals have been given of a keenness to move out anyway. The landlord seems a tough nut, but for all that facing something of a bind in the form of a temptingly quick sale subject to vacant possession being gained several months early. Por needs a similarly tough nut as an advocate in support for upcoming eye-to-eye negotiation. It’s an awkward situation, but the landlord started it and should, ultimately, be the one to give way — provided por doesn’t blink first.
