Rita received an eviction notice - help us catch up on rent
After a delayed insurance payout, Rita is 5 months behind on rent and has a 10-day notice to quit from the landlord.

After a sudden layoff at the construction firm, Rita fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $600.
The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by September, the family must leave.
There are a teenager still in school at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else.
Rita has started working extra hours at a market stall, and is 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 $600 goes:
• Rent arrears (5 months): $430
• Late fees and court costs: $30
• Utilities in arrears: $30
• First month of rent as a buffer: $110

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Rita.
Rent arrears (5 months) is $430 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Thanks for asking.
good luck, Maya. Shared it with a few friends. Love from Santos.
