Berlin
Following a long illness in the family, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Monday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $2,450. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by September, we must leave. I have three school-aged 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 evenings as a cleaner, 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 $2,450 goes: • Rent arrears (4 months): $1,650 • Late fees and court costs: $185 • Utilities in arrears: $110 • First month of rent as a buffer: $505 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Fabian

      Take care, Fabian. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Sent it to 8 people at work. Greetings from Surakarta.

      • Tracey C. Singh

        Rooting for you, Fabian. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together.

        • Songül Duygu Avcı

          Stay strong, Fabian. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Dallas

          • Beth C. Olson

            Thanks for sharing this. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. After 9 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Berlin.

            • Alyssa Kirby

              Thinking of you. I hope things turn around soon. After 15 years in logistics I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Greetings from Niterói.

              • Kazuo Taiga Ueno

                Hope you get there. I'm in construction myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. All the best.
