Triple Repair Catastrophe
Donation protected
Hello, I’m Laura. This has been a heck of a week! First, my furnace had to be replaced, then my old galvanized pipes started blocking up so I have low hot water pressure to the whole house and those need replaced, and to top it all off, my catalytic converter was stolen.
I can make monthly payments on the furnace, but I can’t afford an extra $181 per month, and the interest is so high that I’ll have paid twice the cost of the furnace by the end of the loan. I don’t have a quote on the pipes yet until the 14th since they’re busy, but that’s going to be a few thousand at least. And the catalytic converter is estimated at just over $1000, I get the inspection from the repair shop tomorrow.
I already work two jobs, and having
physical handicaps I can’t handle any more. $8000 isn’t quite enough to pay it all off, but I can make a solid dent in the debt in order to give me some time to work things out financially. I’ll include photos of each estimate as I get them (minus personal info).
I’m no good at asking for help, but I really do need it at the moment. Literally anything will make a difference right now.
