#housing #cosomutualaid So I don't want to use a funding site as the fees are 2.9% plus other additional fees - I will if it's the best route but I'm also not sure even what is needed right now but we don't have much time before an eviction process is started >.> finding a place to live while working and taking care of other family and things is 0.0
I don't think we can afford much more than 70k-80k range TBH and that's probably pushing it close. Loan be based off her income and credit because I have no credit at all - cash goat 0.0
I could maybe get a manual underwriter but IDK as I only have a internet bill in my name and just send money for everything else with a memo.
#housing #cosomutualaid Update Star Date 3.21.24 year of the dragon
-----------
HUD says they will help her but she has to have a lease agreement first - will see what's up on that tomorrow as it was late afternoon getting this info today.
mind you they aren't offering much in way of help though 0.0
I have a maybe good news. We are possibly getting to obtain a new home here in our current park - BUT - I think we need some help in the area of $3k or so. I'll update as I know more.
Gonna add that I can provide proof of situation as well as other things via DMs - I would like to protect any and all parties involved.
We have folks trying to rush along the approval process to obtain this other home - I don't know what is gonna happen yet - I worry what to do if it's not approved - Still probably gonna need help either way and I don't wanna ask for it =(
UPDATE:
$600 in coffers for shelter/food
Goal is around $3k total.
Huge thank you to those that have helped thus far!
I have no dates for moving or anything yet and I'm gonna be on it tomorrow to find out anything I can about us being approved for this new place - really trying to avoid storage and a hotel as temporary.
I'm sorry you're going through this. Sorry if I missed it, but did you set up a Go Fund Me account, or another way to get donations?
@MrGoat You obviously are the GOAT, because I've seen this level of crap your family's been under crush lesser beings.
You are mighty. It still sucks, but at least you are mighty.
I hope there's something we can do to help, or that something goddamn good happens for you soon.
@MrGoat What a mess. Surely hope it resolves soon
I mean, if everyone interested chipped in for a cuppa, that could help, right?
@ATXJane I mean of course if folks help it helps but I don't know if money is the only answer, we have 4 small dogs and 2 kids to keep somewhere personal belongings can be condensed quite a bit but there isn't much in terms of available options that fit our financial and animal needs
Yours is a complicated situation, I get that. I wish I could put yโall up till you get established.
But if you do start a fundraiser, Iโd be in.
Please keep us updated MrGoat.
@ATXJane I'm very grateful for you and others who offer assistance. โค๏ธ I can't express in words what it means. If it was just myself in a situation, I probably wouldn't worry as much but a mom and kids is another story.
Yes, and the 4 doggies! Many of us share your worry.
@MrGoat you have a family here who wants to help. We understand the options aint great. Just let us know how we can best support. You are loved.
@LaurelGreen Hey ๐ I will figure out more details and let yall know what our options are if we can maybe get a pre approval.
@MrGoat keep us updated, I'd like to try to help if I can. Even if it means doing some searches to see if I can find some resources for you.
@MrGoat
Finding housing for a full family and pets while still trying to work and maintain a daily schedule is difficult under the best of circumstances, let alone with the pressure you are facing. Fingers crossed that you find something suitable. Please post if you set up a fund.
@MrGoat
A thought.
Got a paypal.me address?
Post it here with each update.
I may not have funds personally, but there are those who do and I have a boost button.
#CosoMutualAid
@stueytheround You know I have several pay apps venmo, paypal, cashapp, donorbox - venmo is slick as it's like wallet to wallet basically and no fees other than if i need to cash out or transer. Paypal is alright but I need to set up a fundraiser account not a business as mine is.
@MrGoat Whichever you use, please post the link in *each update* with the usual hashtags. I'll boost the fuck out of them.
Point is, make it as easy as possible for those who want to help you.
@stueytheround @MrGoat Ditto ditto, anything to help, seriously.
@PaganMother @stueytheround I will set up a paypal donation page as well as the venmo and let folks choose and if there's another route that is needed will do that as well. I have to go work in a few but will work on that stuff later today =)
Zelle money is literally bank to bank transfers once both parties register their phone numbers to an account
p.s. m willing to help if you decide that funding makes situation settle
@MrGoat That's a reachable target. ๐ค๐ผ
@MrGoat great news!
@scottronaut5150 Potentially yes - I do not want to jinx my situation so I'm not saying it's a for sure.
@MrGoat completely understandable ๐ค
@MrGoat just seen this update, what is the approval deadline for the other location?
@Mauve_matelot heh ASAP? .... i know no dates other than we are supposed to be out by the 1st but that isn't happening as we are in the process of packing still 0.0 Trying to avoid hotel/storage then move into place if possible.
@MrGoat Noted. Sending hugs for all of you and prayers for Monday.
@Mauve_matelot Thank you! <3
You and Stuey are too kind - Glad to have met you folks here =)
@MrGoat I hope everything works out for you both. Keep us informed and if you do need help, please do ask.
I checked and if a person sets up a personal fundraiser and does not list it, they are not charged a fee. (If they list it publically, then a fee is charged.)
A possibilty would be to set up a personal fund, don't list it, but share the link here.

@NaomiSkarzinski I think we most definitely need help in the way of around $3k maybe a little more =/
I have venmo that I've used in the past and everything is kept pretty confidential that way because privacy is important. I will dm folks info needed if they choose to go that route otherwise I'll get on a paypal thing and only share the link here -
@MrGoat I don't do Venmo, too many problems reported with it, but if you do PayPal I can probably swing a tiny amount. I have about $20 in my giving column if my budget spreadsheet. If you do PayPal, DM me with the link.
@MrGoat Best wishes. A horrible and stressful time.
@JolieSaboteuse yeah .... I'm the one with probably the least amount of anxiety/stress - pretty numb to it all =(
