Stop the eviction: 4 months of rent for Finn's family in Utrecht
A final eviction notice arrived last week. Finn needs $3,300 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Utrecht.
🇳🇱 Utrecht, Utrecht, Netherlands2,300 views
When my hours were cut in half in August, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Sunday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $3,300.
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 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 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 $3,300 goes:
• Rent arrears (4 months): $2,200
• First month of rent as a buffer: $870
• Late fees and court costs: $230
With deep gratitude,
Finn

Sending love, Finn. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Love from Nha Trang.
wishing you peace. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.

Hope things get better soon, Finn. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
Best of luck, Finn. This could happen to any of us. God bless.
Shared this with my family. My neighbor in Durban donated after I showed her your page.
Stay strong, Finn. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Faisalabad.
