Dana, you're between a rock and a hard place that nobody would want.
The water is important. Most places over here, the authorities won't let you stay in a dwelling without water. I assume it comes from a water company/authority? Do you pay for it separately or in it included in some collective tax for services?
This is hard because I don't know how things work over there, but let me give you an example of what could happen here.
Water service is broken therefore there is no bill to pay. When no bill is being paid the water company lists the property as no service. The local government gets wind of an abandoned property and investigating, finds out someone is living there without water. They then get pissy and demand the water service be fixed of they'll make the resident move out.
Now this is not the usual chain of events, but it is one that can be created and manipulated, while staying in the background.
Like I said, I don't know your system.
Just keep in mind as this whole thing plays out, you're being dragged into the middle.... BUT IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT. None of it. Nada.
