Help Nicholas keep his home - 3 months behind on rent
After the loss of a second income, Nicholas is 3 months behind on rent and has a termination letter from the landlord.
🇦🇺 Australia1,183 views
When the restaurant closed in February, Nicholas fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Friday a termination letter was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $2,950.
The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by April, the family must leave.
There are a teenager still in school at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else.
Nicholas has started working evenings as a cleaner, and is applying for help from local services, but nothing will arrive in time without the rest of the gap covered here.
The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done.
Where the $2,950 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $2,350
• Utilities in arrears: $250
• Late fees and court costs: $350

Thanks for sharing this. I hope things turn around soon. I hope April is when things finally get easier. Take care!
can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Wollongong
Thank you. If you're in Wollongong I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great.
hope things get better soon, Gabriella. Hope you get there. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
Rooting for you, Gabriella. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Put this on a community board in Bengaluru this morning. God bless.
so sorry you're going through this, Gabriella. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together.

Thinking of you, Gabriella. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon.
Thinking of you, Gabriella. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from The Hague.
rooting for you, Gabriella. Shared it with a few friends. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of Wollongong.
Stay strong. Shared it with a few friends. Greetings from Butwal.
Hope it all works out, Gabriella. Shared it with a few friends
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Wish I lived closer to Envigado so I could bring a meal. God bless
