A group of Brazilian students living in a Dublin house-share have been told they must vacate their home this weekend despite the Government’s extension of the moratorium on on evictions. There had been seven students living in the house – three in one bedroom and four in another. However, three residents moved out during the pandemic leaving the four remaining students to cover the missing rent, a cost they were unable to cover. “When I moved into this house no one told me it was a full house contract, I was just told I would pay for my room,” Carine Queiroz told The Irish Times. The moratorium has been all-important in getting some stability for people at a time of extreme uncertainty for many renters.
