Araba received an eviction notice - help us catch up on rent
A cut in working hours left Araba short on rent for 4 months; help us stay in our home.
🇬🇭 Greater Accra, Ghana826 views
When my hours were cut in half in July, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Tuesday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $650.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by November, we must leave.
I have two young children at home. Moving isn't just an expense - it would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else.
I have started working two part-time jobs, and I'm applying for help from local services, but nothing will arrive in time without the rest of the gap covered here.
The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done.
Where the $650 goes:
• Rent arrears (4 months): $460
• Late fees and court costs: $35
• First month of rent as a buffer: $155
I hope life is good to you.

Shared it with a few friends. My husband and I read this together. Thinking of Tema.
