Keep a roof over Dina's head in Fez

After a long illness, Dina is 4 months behind on rent and has a termination letter from the landlord.

Fez
After a sudden layoff at the hotel, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $650. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by August, 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 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. The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done. Where the $650 goes: • Late fees and court costs: $70 • Utilities in arrears: $60 • Rent arrears (4 months): $520 I hope life is good to you. - Dina

            is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Dina.

            • Dina Amal TahaOwnerAnswerPhoto verified

              Late fees and court costs is $70 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Appreciate you taking the time.

                  Thank you. If you're in Fez I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Fair thing to want to know.

                                keep going, Dina. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Take care.
