After a car accident that kept me from work for 5 weeks, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Tuesday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $2,750.
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 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 $2,750 goes:
• First month of rent as a buffer: $370
• Utilities in arrears: $190
• Rent arrears (3 months): $2,190
I hope life is good to you.

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Chang-min.
Sure. The biggest one is first month of rent as a buffer, $370. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Appreciate you taking the time.
Take care, Chang-min. Gave what I could, wish it was more.
Hope it all works out, Chang-min. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. God bless.
Sending strength, Chang-min. Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in Aurangabad donated after I showed her your page.
Thinking of you. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Thinking of Daegu
