It appears as if you registered from southern California, and specifically the Orange County region. Yes, CA has been hit hard by the recession, and it is difficult for many people. Just keep looking for a job, network, talk to friends, family, etc. In the meantime, find those Orange County CA rent programs, charities, and organizations. Places like Garden Grove United Labor Agency of Orange County offer an Emergency Assistance Program ((714) 740-0928) and an organization like Anaheim Community Foundation may be able to offer rent or security deposit assistance. Phone (714) 765-4419.

Good news that you are working again. About how long before you think you can get back on track with rent now that have an income? If working then more likley to qualify for help from an agency. Locate rent assistance in Memphis using this resource. Call places like the Mississippi Boulevard Baptist Church at 901.729.6222. The Neighborhood Christian Center accepts applications on Tuesdays for emergency help with housing, rent, and other bills. Their number is 901-881-6013

My monthly rent is $1300.00, plus late charges that start to accrue after the third, with $50 chage on the 4th day and $10 dollars a day every after that so my charges as of today is $1390.00. Any rent assistance in Memphis you can immediately provide will be greatly appreciated. Desperate!!!

Look into a HUD certified housing agency in Georgia. They can provide deposits, and maybe more importantly budgeting, credit and debt reduction, and other housing support. Georgia HUD counseling agencies are always great places to call for advice and rent assistance.

You don't really want to get a personal loan to pay for rent or move in costs. Not the best idea. Look into government programs and Suffolk County MA help for bills. The greater Boston Massachusetts and Suffolk County area has dozens of low income programs, and the primary one is the ABCD community action agency. That is a pretty expensive first months rent and deposits too. You can't find any place cheaper?

Look up emergency rental assistance programs in your area. Several links should pop up and they may be able to help you. I having the same problems, just different scenario. They want help me because the people who can help me I already owe them money from several years back, so they may help you. Good Luck : )

Me and my boyfriend of three years have been living with my parents for quite sometime and they dont have the means to support us. We are starting college in the fall and my boyfriend just acquired a part time job at big lots, but we need some help to get started in our own place by the time school starts. I looked up one of the programs on the site and it said it would help with security deposit and from three to eighteen months of rent,if you would consider helping us all we need is security deposit and one months rent to get started. Thank you for reading this and your response will be very much appreciated.

Good morning,
I am a single mother with two children living in Massachusetts. I am currently seeking a new residence, but am having trouble coming up with funds for move in costs. I have a low credit score (552), and can not get approved for any form of personal loan. I have found residence, but need to come up with first and security which results in a minimum down payment of $2500. I am living fully on assistance, and am enrolled in school full time.

Re: need help with deposit and first month rent

Post by Courtney »

I am a 30 yr. old single mother and I am currently living from house to house with family and friends. I am currently employed at a daycare center and have been there for 1.5 years and still only receiving $7.50/hr, my starting wage. I have applied for subsidized housing however I am not eligible due to a debt I owe from over 8 years ago. My plan B is to apply for non-subsidized housing, but I cannot afford to pay the rent and the deposit and most places want a application fee. I am looking for resources in my area (Dayton, Oh) that helps with paying rent and deposit. I have spent several weeks and hours browsing the internet for those resources and I am exhausted but not willing to give up. I actually thought this was a site that provided those kinds of resources so I signed up and was more frustrated to find out it's just people like myself crying out for help. What do I do? Help me please!

To clarify, are you looking for housing aid, or food? Or both. I guess it doesn't really matter as you indicated quite a bit of needs down below. So try this for a listing of Florida food banks and other non-profit agencies and charities. Not only can they provide free food and groceries, but also can usually refer you to local non-profits, charities, and other services in Florida. Even car repair programs can be applied to if you need your car for work or a medical appointment.
