When my hours were cut in half in September, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Friday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $2,950.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by December, we must leave.
I have a teenager still in school 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 evenings as a cleaner, 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 $2,950 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $1,850
• Late fees and court costs: $220
• Utilities in arrears: $165
• First month of rent as a buffer: $715

Hope this works out for you. Wish I lived closer to Ekurhuleni so I could bring a meal. Blessings
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Ishrat!
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. rent arrears (3 months) comes first ($1,850) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Ask me anything else.
stay strong, Ishrat. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless
Sending good thoughts. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. We're a small family in Berlin but we're thinking of you. All the best.
