Stop the eviction: 4 months of rent for Josefin's family in Stockholm
After a long illness, Josefin is 4 months behind on rent and has a 10-day notice to quit from the landlord.
🇸🇪 Stockholm, Sweden2,353 views
Following a long illness in the family, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $2,500.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by May, we must leave.
I have three school-aged 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 night deliveries, 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 $2,500 goes:
• Late fees and court costs: $140
• Rent arrears (4 months): $2,050
• Utilities in arrears: $310
With deep gratitude,
Josefin

How is Josefin doing now?
Best of luck, Josefin. Hope you get there
Sending good thoughts. Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Moscow so I could bring a meal. Love from Catania.
Wishing you the best. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care!
Keep going. This could happen to any of us. It's not much but it's yours. Thinking of Stockholm.
thinking of you and your family. This could happen to any of us. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
Keep going, Josefin. Shared it with a few friends. Take care.
Thanks for sharing this, Josefin. Shared this with my family.
