It seems that some understanding landlords are giving rent reductions due to the coronavirus lack of income. This was posted on Siem Reap facebook page today. Does anyone else have a landlord like this ?
Being the only foreigner in a 10 unit accommodation off Wat Polanka Rd, I give a shout out to our landlord, who after consultation with tenants, reduced the monthly rental by 14%.during this time of hardship for the locals. He is much respected here by all and deservedly so.

My landlord offered a 20% discount when I told them that I was ending my contract.

I've had my income reduced so I asked my landlord to reduce the rent, she said no. I told her I was going to leave then she gave me a $50 discount per month until I can go back to working full time.

My landlady dropped it from $250 to $200. I didn't ask her. She just let me know when I went to pay the rent. It's not a lot, but every little bit helps, and I appreciate that she did it. She's a nice lady, who has always taken care of everything very promptly.
If anyone is looking for a place, I'll be moving in a couple weeks and could pass along your info. It's in Siem Reap, right by Hwy 6 and Wat Bo Rd, just a few blocks from the river.

No discount here - but they are quite flexible about payment dates, so happy where we are.

My landlord is working with me- but my pay has been cut by 50%. I need to find another avenue of income.

I left my last gig like 6 months ago. Obviously didn't know corona was coming!
Cash definitely being spent more wisely than last year.

At the end of February my lease expired in TTP. I told the condo manager since I felt COV 19 might affect my job I wanted to go month to month. At the end of March I met the owner and she offered a 20 dollar discount. Around the third week of April I contacted the owner and told her I am moving. The condo is too expensive for me now unless she could offer me a substantial discount. My rent was 420 now it is 250 (about 40 percent) . I was nice about it but honest.

Being polite goes a long way. I guess she realized this is a bad time to start looking for another tenant.
