Hello, I am a single father in Houston with a 13 year old son. Last year I lost my job as my company was sold and I was laid off. I lived off of unemployment for a while but eventually lost everything including my place to stay. I have since found a new job and I am struggling to find a place to live as I have an eviction on my record. I am making $15 per hour at Walmart and my son and I are currently living with my mom. I am in DESPERATE need of a place as I need to leave immediately. I also have a significantly higher income potential but cannot reach it as I need my own space. I do voiceover work, music work, visual illustration, writing, handmade unique items for cosplay and comic con etc. All of which are on hold at my mom's because I have no space as my son and I currently share a small room. I am willing to do whatever necessary to get in a place asap. I would be eternally grateful for a rental house as this would be prime and allow me to supplement the income from my job with lots of freelance work. However, I am willing to accept anything but have had no luck with corporate owned apartments. I completely understand how this looks from the landlord perspective and I will lay out everything to them upfront. However, I don't have lots of free time nor knowledge of the most likely places to be accepted so I have been going in circles for months trying to find a place. Please help me.
Thank you for your time and have an excellent day.
