Walz Family Move

Hi, my name is Eric Walz. I am humbly coming to our community asking for help for my family. We have lived in our rental home for 3.5 years. We were recently informed that the owner wants to sell. We had discussions with him about possibly purchasing the home. I am a 50% disabled Navy Veteran and have qualified for a VA loan. Unfortunately our landlord isn’t willing to work with us to purchase this home within our price range. That has left us with three weeks to find a home, as he has given us to June 15th to be out. We have a realtor working tirelessly to find us a home to purchase. However, we may have to put all of our belongings in storage, and stay in a hotel or Air BnB for a few weeks. This will be costly, and not within our budget. When we moved into the home we are currently renting, we had to pay three months rent for deposits. We both work, but our budget is limited. We are still paying medical bills from an ongoing injury from a hit and run accident.

We will also have moving costs. I myself broke my back several years ago in the hit and run accident. Jen has bilateral hip dysplasia, bulging discs, spinal bone spurs and DDD. Neither of us are able to lift.

Being in this current position is frightening enough, but we also have a child. We need to know we have a safe place to live until we find a home to purchase and can close.

tWe are asking for financial help for moving, and hotel or Air BnB costs.

GFM does take a few out of each donation, we also have Venmo @EJCWalz
