A Melbourne real estate agency has emailed tenants to say that “eviction season” has arrived, warning them that agents will have the “difficult” and “unfortunate job” of removing them if they miss payments due to Christmas spending.
The agency on Tuesday apologised for the email, which one tenant had described as “jaw dropping” and “awful” given an ongoing cost-of-living crisis and skyrocketing rents in the city that the agency is based.
