Following a long illness in the family, I fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $900.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by November, 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 weekend shifts, 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 $900 goes:
• Rent arrears (2 months): $630
• Late fees and court costs: $30
• Utilities in arrears: $55
• First month of rent as a buffer: $185

Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Marrakesh
Thank you. If you're in Marrakesh I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Appreciate you taking the time.
Shared this with my family. Thinking of Marrakesh
Best of luck, Rahma. This could happen to any of us. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Blessings.
Thanks for sharing this. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Sent it to 33 people at work. All the best.
Thanks for sharing this. Shared this with my family. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
hope things get better soon, Rahma. Shared this with my family. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.
