My name is Barbara I’m raising my 8 yr old grandbaby and I’m currently facing a lockout. My Landlord is seeking a lockout because my daughter breached our contract. Was burned out of our home last yr the day before Easter a rental. I put my family up for 6 to 8 months in hotels. Until finding another place My daughter was supposed to help with the rent. And she didn’t so now everything falls on me I’ve already gone through an eviction but was able to negotiate with the landlord after giving him thousands of dollars to stay. He is asking for 3577 which is a bulk payment that was due at the end of June. And I didn’t pay for it. Don’t get me wrong I haven’t stopped paying rent I never did my daughter did. And I had to cover all. And as a result after mal eviction, I had a pay-to-stay agreement I had to beg him and his attorney for. And the payments went from 2171 to 2500 which included fees all the while I was paying and my daughter wasn’t even though she worked. You see Im a domestic violence victim and my daughter and 13 yr old granddaughter were the abusers mentally physically and financially This had gone on for quite some time. I never reported her to the police. Because I never wanted her to go to jail because of my granddaughters, however, I did devise a plan with my neighborhood police that proved to be successful. I was able to obtain a final restraining order. As which matter of fact they were just here to check on my granddaughter and me. That had her and my granddaughter removed. If I had the money I would pay him but I don’t I had to use my savings and to start the agreement I had to pay 4 months’ rent to start before he would even sign it I have permanent custody of my 8 yr old granddaughter We’ve been thru hell trying just to settle and have a little solace because of what we’re going thru I don’t have anybody to turn to the agencies exhaust you to the point where they hope you just get tired of applying for help by some of the ridiculous requirements and then when you do they still deny you even though they stress you to work it out with the landlord I did then was left with humiliated. They turned me down saying that they won’t pay on an agreement, Which makes no sense and they ask you to work it out with them as a result I’m looking at being locked out I cant secure another place with no money and little time what landlord is going to accept us with this hanging over our heads.I can’t have my baby staying in a roach motel the shelters are not safe nor do i want to stay in one have done both I know that beggars can’t or shouldn’t be choosers but all I’m begging for is to be able to keep the roof over my babies and my head the one we have I don’t receive child support I never did widows benefits ss is what I receive and it covers nothing 1991 not a whole lot and I’m also looking at a 4000 electric bill And it being the first of the month .2171 is due again.
