She added that the uncertainty has disrupted their ability to plan basic household activities or look ahead.
"Are we going to be here this Christmas or is this our last summer here? [It's] little things like, do I do the garden?

Representatives from the renters union ACORN have stepped in to represent the household during the legal dispute.
"We know [Brighter Places] have got to meet their obligations, we know that they've got their own rights and responsibilities and stuff like that," Katrina Eastgate, representative for ACORN, said.
Eastgate advocated for greater consideration of the family's personal circumstances amidst their bereavement.
"All we're asking is for them to see the people who are looking at losing their home," she said.
