Due to unpaid rents in the last couple of years the Housing Fund has mostly had to evict tenants from Maribor, Ravne na Koroškem and Jesenice.

The regional divide is comparable with recently published data from the social work centers, which reveals that due to unpaid rents two apartments are evicted every day. The total amount of unpaid rents to the Housing Fund of the Republic of Slovenia is still rising. At the end of March both current tenants and former tenants owed around 2,8 million euros. At the same time the fund also takes over the payment of bills left behind by former tenants - last year they amounted to 175 thousand euros.

The Housing Fund does not have precise figures on all the eviction carried out across the country. The fund also doesn't explain the reasons for the increasing number of evictions every year. Last year, for example, there were two times more evictions than in 2009.
