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

After a divorce, Hari is 2 months behind on rent and has a final eviction notice from the landlord.

After a car accident that kept me from work for 12 weeks, I fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Tuesday a final eviction notice 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 November, we must leave. I have a teenager still in school 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. 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 (2 months): $410 • First month of rent as a buffer: $70 • Late fees and court costs: $20 Thanks for reading all this.

    • George KumiQuestion

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

      • Hari GounderOwnerAnswer

        The list at the bottom is the whole picture. rent arrears (2 months) is the biggest at $410. Good question.

    • Tariq Nabil Yassin

              • Hari GounderOwnerAnswer

                Thank you. If you're in Pune I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Good question.

                You're not alone, Hari. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 13 years in farming I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Thinking of Pune.
