Bayu received an eviction notice - help us catch up on rent
A termination letter arrived last week. Bayu needs $500 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Jakarta Selatan.
🇮🇩 Jakarta Selatan, DKI Jakarta, Indonesia667 views
After a car accident that kept me from work for 4 weeks, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Monday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $500.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by October, 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 weekend shifts, and I'm applying for help from local services, but nothing will arrive in time without the rest of the gap covered here.
Funds go to the landlord and nowhere else. Any amount left over after the arrears are cleared will go toward next month's rent.
Where the $500 goes:
• Rent arrears (4 months): $330
• Late fees and court costs: $50
• Utilities in arrears: $30
• First month of rent as a buffer: $90
With deep gratitude,
Bayu

a secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Blessings
Praying for you, Bayu. This could happen to any of us. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home
Thinking of you. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together!
