Keep a roof over Maximilian's head in Stuttgart
A car accident left Maximilian short on rent for 5 months; help us stay in our home.
🇩🇪 Stuttgart, Baden-Württemberg, Germany1,589 views
After a sudden layoff at the restaurant, I fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Sunday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $2,100.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by October, we must leave.
I've 3 children 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 $2,100 goes:
• Rent arrears (5 months): $1,300
• First month of rent as a buffer: $530
• Utilities in arrears: $270
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

thinking of you. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. God bless.
Any update on how things are going in Stuttgart?
Hope it all works out. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'll check back for the next update.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Maximilian
Rent arrears (5 months) is $1,300 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Happy to explain more.
so sorry you're going through this. Hope you get there. Love from New Delhi
I hope things turn around soon. Thinking of Stuttgart
Best of luck, Maximilian. Hope you get there. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best
