I think that is a FANTASTIC idea to apply for a Habitat for Humanity House! My cousin was a recipient of that many years ago as a single mom with 2 children also. Absolutely talk to them as soon as you can about your current situation. You are correct that they care and listen to the current situation for each applicant and consider the "whole" story! The sooner you can get out of that damn condo away from those horrible neighbors, the better!!! I am sending many prayers🙏 and positive vibes your way for a great outcome!!! You and your beautiful children deserve nothing but the best!!!💖

my heart breaks for you, but I can identify with a lot of your plight. I've struggled most of my adult life, divorced with 4 kids, all grown now. I was lucky to get a home in a decent low income neighborhood in 2009 when foreclosures were popping up like StarBucks. But I was drowning in debt . I finally got my credit cards all paid off through debt consolidation and paid off my car the same year. Finally for the first time in my adult life debt free at the age of 62. I'm now 64 and living on retirement benefits from the school district I worked for and social security. Very tight budget but scraping by. I feel for you and your circumstances. Life can suck pretty hard sometimes, and it often feels like it sucks all the time.

I would call up that plumber & get some money deducted for him working on someone elses place while you paid him that is insane.

I manage HOA’s. Question: the governing documents for the condos. In the COA maintenance section in the CC&Rs: there is a breakdown of exactly what the CoA maintains and what individual owners are responsible for. Typically plumbing is each single individual owners responsibility to maintain. Any lines for that condo are that condo owner’s responsibility. That would include maintenance and replacement. What do your condos CC&R maintenance docs say? IF it’s the association’s responsibility it may be best to get a lawyer to send them a letter about their need to take care of the plumbing issues by XYZ date AND reimburse you for what you have spent. IF it’s each owners responsibility… that sucks but it’s very very very typical since condos aren’t apartments. Monthly HOA dues on attached structures are super expensive. Especially in Florida where just the cost of insurance is insane. The cost to maintain the existence of such a large physical structure is crazy for both immediate monthly needs and the long term reserve savings required to keep on top of massive structural repairs so things like that condo collapse don’t happen again.

The office in my area requires you to volunteer so many hours before they will consider getting you into a home. Only adults can do these hours and it can take years to work them all. I only say this as I looked into it. I am also a single mom with 2 kids. My oldest is an adult now but lives at home and my ASD son will turn 18 this year. Our kids are in different places in life but I feel your frustration. Look into low income housing assistance as well in your area and see if they can help you. Google your options in the area you live or are willing to relocate too. If you can move further out of the city you might find cheaper housing options with a longer drive. I do this and have found it is better for my family if I travel the hour. It's not for everyone but it's worth a look. You are an out of the box thinker and I have faith in time you will find what you're in need of. I know you're frustrated and people suck sometimes but don't let it push you to rush into something you haven't gotten to research yet. Best of luck. Sending well wishes and positive vibes your way!
