Recently, Ms. Liu, a citizen, told 12345 that she entrusted "freely" to rent out a house in Minhang District. Recently, it was found that the house was partitioned and more people lived. Dissatisfied, Ms. Liu proposed to cancel the contract and was charged a high breach of contract fee. In the end, because the terms of the contract were not good for her, Ms. Liu could only bear more than 60,000 yuan.

Entrusted to rent, the house is partitioned
Ms. Liu told reporters that in January 2019, she signed a house entrustment rental agreement with "Ziru" through a chain store on Baochun Road. The rented house is located in Yangming International Garden, Lane 108, Shanhua Road, Xinzhuang Town, Minhang District. It is a two-bedroom house.
The conditions given freely made Ms. Liu very satisfied. "Custody is assured, and income is increasing." The so-called custody means that it will freely arrange a special housekeeper to "maintain" her house and keep it clean; the monthly rent is 5,800 yuan, with an annual increase of 5%. "Although I want to eliminate the 115-day vacancy period and return no income, I still sign for five years."
At the end of March this year, a neighbor told Ms. Liu that the tenant who lived in her house was "in a mess" and reminded Ms. Liu to "care more about her house."
Ms. Liu said that she proposed to the housekeeper that she wanted to see the house, but she was perfunctory.
Ms. Liu simply knocked on the door herself, but didn't expect to eat a closed door soup. "I only entered the gate and walked to the nearest restaurant. The living room and dining room were originally connected, and now they have been partitioned. The 2nd bedroom has been changed to the 3rd bedroom. The occupants inside are very fierce and will not let me enter the room , Drove me out. "After that, she once again asked the housekeeper to check in, and the housekeeper claimed to violate the privacy of the customer.
Cancel the contract and receive the room, first pay more than 60,000
What made Ms. Liu most depressed was: "My house is not rough. The rooms and living room originally had beds, TV cabinets, cabinets, sofas, etc. They threw away my furniture!"
Thinking over and over again, Ms. Liu resolutely offered to cancel the contract. The butler's reply is that if she cancels the contract, she will get an application to cancel the contract on her own. The system shows that Ms. Liu has to pay more than 60,000 yuan in liquidated damages. Ms. Liu asked for the voucher and seal, and the other party replied that this is the system's cancellation budget and cannot be sealed. "Without any proof, would I have to pay more than 60,000 yuan?" Ms. Liu couldn't accept it. The other party said that it was necessary to wait until the termination agreement was signed and liquidated damages were paid. After the tenant moved away, the company could only give specific details after the house was recovered.
The two sides entered an endless loop for a while. Since she requested to pay first and then to cancel the contract, Ms. Liu requested to get the details of the payment voucher before paying. "The payment details didn't come down. Why should I pay more than 60,000 yuan?" She has doubts about how the 60,000 yuan was calculated. If I want to make a comfortable decoration, my furniture will be thrown away. Why not freely?
The terms are unfavorable, you can only pay for the money
Does Ziru have this "right" to build partitions and handle furniture by itself? The focus of the dispute finally fell on the contract signed by both parties.
Ms. Liu told reporters that she had been blinded to "addition of partitions" and "throwing of furniture" until recently. At that time, she signed a written contract, and then from the company showed her the electronic contract version, she only noticed that some terms were unfavorable to her, such as being able to "optimize the structure".
On April 7, the reporter called the free housekeeper Xiao Xu. The other party said that Ziru has always had an operation mode of partition and extra bed, and told the owner at the beginning, "The owner signed the contract after knowing it, and we will not do something without the owner without knowing." Why Ms. Liu said that she did n’t know, he did n’t give more explanation. It only means that she has been communicating well with Ms. Liu.
The other party revealed that the biggest reason for Ms. Liu to cancel the contract was that she wanted to sell the house quickly. In this regard, Ms. Liu did not deny the reporter.
On April 10, the reporter contacted Ms. Liu again. She said that she didn't want to "consume" any more, she had given up and negotiated with Zirui, and paid 60,900 yuan to Zirui. This is a painful lesson for Ms. Liu: no matter what contract you sign in the future, you must see the terms clearly.
