I arrived home from school and noticed a paper taped to our door I said daddy there’s a Eviction paper on the door. My heart sank . I I had a bad feeling. That moment my life changed . The next morning I heard the words son pack your bags were leaving . The moving process was humbling . I thought I was going to be at the house forever. Being evicted changed my perspective on life. And showed me what being an adult is really about .

I had walked up to the front door as usual and noticed a letter with scotch tape it read “Eviction”. this was back in 2012 my jr year of high school. The next morning my father asked my to pack EVERYTHING (my clothes) into bag. that night we went looking for a hotel room. That following week we had emptied the entire house . Luckly we could afford a storage facility to put what we couldn’t take with us to our apartment.

I’m a single mother of 3. I applied for the rent relief program in Feb. In March I received an email saying they launched a new system and that I would have to reapply. I did as soon as I got the email. I received a confirmation email saying my application was successfully submitted. I waited patiently. In June I received a heart dropping email saying my application was denied. (more…)

My fiancé and I moved into a trailer park in Jan 2019. We needed to find somewhere fast due to his grandmothers passing and her home sold off. We live on his disability of $500 per month. ( I’m in process filing now for my disability from lupus, RA mental health etc). We moved into a trailer park and had to pay previous renters back rent of $1,900 to be allowed the home. Once we moved into the home we realized there was no running water or sewage. The previous renters destroyed the underground piping. (more…)

They had lived in N. Carolina previous 5 years and had employed their Sister here to manage and rent the property. (more…)

I have 3 kids and the neighbors keep calling the cops about how loud the house is and there is a neighbor instigating fights with me on purpose. Of course, I ignore it but they keep calling the police and that is a violation of the lease. I unfortunately lost my job and cannot afford to get into a new place. (more…)
