Casablanca
After a car accident that kept me from work for 10 weeks, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Friday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $700. 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 two part-time jobs, and I'm applying for help from local services, but nothing will arrive in time without the rest of the gap covered here. The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done. Where the $700 goes: • Rent arrears (3 months): $470 • Late fees and court costs: $60 • Utilities in arrears: $30 • First month of rent as a buffer: $140 Thanks for being kind about this. - Yann

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

    • Yann RousseauOwnerAnswer

      Sure. The biggest one is rent arrears (3 months), $470. 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.

  • Sending strength, Yann. Looking forward to the next update. God bless

    • you're not alone, Yann. This could happen to any of us. Please keep us posted. Love from Nagpur.
