Keep a roof over Aarón's head in Alicante
A final eviction notice arrived last week. Aarón needs $2,250 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Alicante.
🇪🇸 Alicante, Valencian Community, Spain1,174 views
After a car accident that kept me from work for 3 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 $2,250.
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 $2,250 goes:
• Rent arrears (2 months): $1,300
• Late fees and court costs: $140
• Utilities in arrears: $135
• First month of rent as a buffer: $675
Glad we found this place.

Updates from Aarón
Good news. Because of your gifts ($445 in total) I met with the landlord and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

Hang in there. Your post was clear and honest. Thinking of Alicante.
Good luck. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Bandung
hope it all works out. Hope you get there. Put this on a community board in Salvador this morning. God bless.
