When the construction firm closed in December, Héctor fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Monday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $1,150. The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by March, the family must leave. There are three school-aged children at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else. Héctor has started working weekend shifts, 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 $1,150 goes: • Rent arrears (2 months): $710 • Late fees and court costs: $95 • Utilities in arrears: $85 • First month of rent as a buffer: $260 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Julieta

  • Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Héctor

    • Julieta E. LaraOwnerAnswer

      Sure. The biggest one is rent arrears (2 months), $710. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. It helps to be asked.

  • Rooting for you. This could happen to any of us. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double!

    • Hang in there. Looking forward to the next update. Love from Ciudad de México.

      • is there anything that isn't money that would help Héctor?

        • Julieta E. LaraOwnerAnswer

          Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about rent arrears (2 months), advice is welcome too. Appreciate you taking the time.

      • shared this with my family. Thinking of San Nicolás de los Garza.

        • Take care, Julieta. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. God bless.

          • keep going, Julieta. Hope this works out for you. God bless

            • So sorry you're going through this, Julieta. Hope this works out for you. Thinking of San Nicolás de los Garza

              • You're not alone, Julieta. Your post was clear and honest

                • hope things get better soon, Julieta. Hope this works out for you.

                  • Sending strength, Julieta. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
