Stop the eviction: 5 months of rent for Issa's family in Boulogne-Billancourt
A long illness left Issa short on rent for 5 months; help us stay in our home.
🇫🇷 France2,124 views
Following a long illness in the family, I fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Tuesday a notice to vacate was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $3,250.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by July, we must leave.
I have two young 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 $3,250 goes:
• Utilities in arrears: $220
• Late fees and court costs: $210
• Rent arrears (5 months): $2,820
Thank you so much.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Issa!
Sure. The biggest one is utilities in arrears, $220. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Thanks for looking so closely.
Best of luck, Issa. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps.
