Chloé received an eviction notice - help us catch up on rent

A final eviction notice arrived last week. Chloé needs $3,000 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Paris.

When the warehouse closed in July, Chloé fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Sunday a final eviction notice was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $3,000. The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by September, the family must leave. There are 3 children at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else. Chloé has started working extra hours at a market stall, and is 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 $3,000 goes: • Rent arrears (5 months): $1,650 • Late fees and court costs: $290 • Utilities in arrears: $260 • First month of rent as a buffer: $800 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

    I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. All the best.

      Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Chloé.

      • René Fabrice GerardOwnerAnswer

        Rent arrears (5 months) is $1,650 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Happy to explain more.

    • Alice A. Carroll
