As you may know, some flat owners have resorted to selling their flats to pay off debts, without considering where their families will stay next. While this may give temporary relief to the debt problem, it may lead to more problems, like having to look for alternative accommodation and moving from place to place. These not only add stress to their lives but may also strain family relationships or affect the studies of their children.
