Help Tyler keep his home - 3 months behind on rent

A delayed insurance payout left Tyler short on rent for 3 months; help us stay in our home.

After a car accident that kept me from work for 4 weeks, Tyler fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Sunday a court summons for non-payment was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $2,900. The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by July, the family must leave. There are two young children at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else. Tyler has started working two part-time jobs, 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 $2,900 goes: • Late fees and court costs: $270 • Utilities in arrears: $120 • Rent arrears (3 months): $2,510 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Alexa

    is there anything that isn't money that would help Tyler?

    • Alexa M. GonzalezOwnerAnswer

      Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about late fees and court costs, advice is welcome too. Happy to explain more.

  • Alexander N. Owens

    • Pedro AndradeQuestion

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

      • Alexa M. GonzalezOwnerAnswer

        Late fees and court costs is $270 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Thanks for looking so closely.
