When You Desperately Need Rent Money – How To Find Fast Emergency Cash

Few people would disagree that these are truly hard times for a lot of people. That includes those (like me and perhaps you) who are renters instead of house buyers.

Few people would disagree that these are truly hard times for a lot of people. That includes those (like me and perhaps you) who are renters instead of house buyers.

But sometimes, bills pile up, and we need rent money…and need it fast. Rent isn’t the only living expense we have, of course, but is there usually any bill we consider more important? After all, if you don’t have a place to live, everything else matters less. You can live, if forced to, without a phone, an Internet connection, cable TV, even electricity (though that’s a tough one). But when you lose the roof over your head, that’s a major big deal, no two ways about it.

If you’ve ever said, “I need rent money…and I need it fast to avoid eviction,” then I’m talking to you here.

In times past, I too have been “up against it,” as they say…down to my last few dollars, with the rent already overdue, and waiting for the “other shoe to fall.” You know….that knock on the door with your landlord standing there…or a phone call from the apartment or property manager.

What do you do…what CAN you do…to raise what maybe I could call “eviction rent”? Well, having been in just such a situation, I’ve learned some ways to raise fast emergency cash…and some ways to definitely avoid at all costs. One way that’s a total dead-end is to go for the quick, easy fix: a payday or car title loan. You risk your car, your paycheck, your peace of mind…and maybe even get forced into bankruptcy. And if you do manage to pay back your, say, $600 loan over the full term you’re given, you’re likely to end up paying more like $1,200.

But fortunately, there are other ways that can help you get money quick…ways I’ve uncovered in my own search for ways to get cash quick. Some of them, most everybody already knows about. But beyond those are scores of other dependable, proven ways to find or raise cash when you need rent money or money for some other emergency. I’ve pulled them together in a brand-new resource that includes ways both well-known and virtually unknown…but all of them, ways that will get you out of your current bind and back to a place where you can breathe again.
