Family in Need of Permanent Home

This request was posted on the old FreeBeg forum and is closed. See people who need help right now

We are a family of 4 in desperate need of a permanent home. We are currently separated from each other due to our circumstances. Our twins are staying with my parents and we are staying with an acquaintance. The place we are staying is not child friendly and we cannot stay at my parents with the kids, unfortunately. We were excited to finally find a home we could afford late last year. It had a few issues but we were assured by the landlord everything would be repaired. After several reminders and many months, we finally informed him that we would do the repairs (huge leak in the roof) ourselves since it had been 6 months and nothing had been done. To our surprise, his response was to end our tenancy. We didn't have a lease so we had little recourse. Our rent was paid on time, the house and yard was kept neat and tidy. We were quiet and respectful and rarely had visitors. We did what we thought we were supposed to be doing. Yet, we still weren't able to keep the home for our kids. It was devastating. We have been searching for months now to find something we can afford with understanding landlords but we've not found anything. We've even looked at tiny homes on small pieces of land to purchase without luck. We just want somewhere we know we won't have to move out of anytime soon, that we can raise our kids and know that they will feel secure in knowing that where we live is their home. We are asking for any help with a home or money towards a down payment so we can qualify to purchase a home vs renting or resources we're unaware of that can help us find a home. Anything to help get our family back together and in a stable, long term home. Thank you

I lost my job back in July and me and my son have been struggling since. Rent went up so did the cost of food. Its been really hard to find a job as well.
