Yvonne Tolker hasn't added a story.
Our name's are Yvonne and Josh and we live together in Brooklyn!
We love our apartment and we love living together, and have put a lot of effort into making this place our home.
But for the last several months we have been under extreme stress as we are afraid of losing our home.
Last year our other roommate stopped paying rent in November. As of March 14th, she has not paid rent for November, December, January, Februray and this month. As well as no utility payments for February or March.
We have been fighting with her to get her to pay rent or move out, and it has been a very difficult process. She didn't take us seriously the first time we asked her to leave, and then when she did claim she was trying to move, she took a long time to get serious about it. .
Josh and Yvonne are both disabled and struggling and could not pay the over $4000 that was owed to the management company.
Thankfully Josh's amazing friend and Guarantor paid off a large chunk of the money that our roommate owed.
However our roommate is still living with us and not paying rent, and while we prepare to take her to court to formally evict her, we need help.
We still owe a large portion of March rent, as well as the late fees that she has incurred for March and some remaining money from the previous months. If we do not pay off our debt, we will be unable to renew our lease and will lose our home.
To make things worse, Josh has been injured and unable to work
all this week, and Yvonne has some expensive vet bills, so things are
very tight for both of us.
We have already received help from some folks in the past and we want to sincerely thank you all. Your support means so much to us and we felt so blessed!
Any amount you can give will be so appreciated!
The money received will directly go to paying off our debt to the management company. Any extra $ will be used to pay for apartment utilities, court fees or to pay back Josh's guarantor.
We love you all <3 <3 <3
