Stop the eviction: 4 months of rent for Soledad's family in Tlaquepaque
After a long illness, Soledad is 4 months behind on rent and has a final eviction notice from the landlord.
🇲🇽 Tlaquepaque, Jalisco, Mexico709 views
After a car accident that kept me from work for 7 weeks, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Wednesday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $600.
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 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.
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 $600 goes:
• Rent arrears (4 months): $470
• Late fees and court costs: $30
• Utilities in arrears: $100
With deep gratitude,
Soledad
