Keep a roof over Noah's head in San Diego
After a cut in working hours, Noah is 3 months behind on rent and has a termination letter from the landlord.

Following a long illness in the family, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Friday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $4,050.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by April, we must leave.
I've 4 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 $4,050 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $2,650
• Late fees and court costs: $260
• Utilities in arrears: $320
• First month of rent as a buffer: $820

This could happen to any of us. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Noah.
Sure. The biggest one is rent arrears (3 months), $2,650. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one.
Sending strength, Noah. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Sent it to 20 people at work. All the best.
Wishing you the best. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. All the best.
I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Blessings
Hope it all works out, Noah. I hope things turn around soon. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. All the best.
