After being laid off and unable to cover rent, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a retail supervisor in Newcastle and I have a steady income, but I can't find a place that will let me in without the first month, a deposit and references that I'm in the middle of replacing.
I'm looking for a spare room for 4 months. I can pay $145 a month toward bills, I'm tidy and quiet, and I'd be happy to help with cooking, shopping or yard work. I have no pets, I don't smoke, and I have three personal and work references.
I understand that inviting a stranger into your home is a big step. I'd be glad to meet in a public place first and to share my work details.
I hope life is good to you.

Wishing you the best, Janet. Your post was clear and honest.
Stay strong. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I have a 6 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless.
Sending love. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Greetings from Galle.
Thinking of you, Janet. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps.
So sorry you're going through this, Janet. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Please keep us posted. God bless.
Rooting for you, Janet. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Put this on a community board in Fresno this morning!
Thanks for sharing this, Janet. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps.
Good luck, Janet. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes
A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. I have a 9 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
