Testimonials

Before Katrina, I was living in a rental house paying six hundred dollars a month. It was amazing how things happen, because three days before Katrina, my landlord told me that my rent was going to go up to seven hundred and fifty dollars a month. I practically begged her not to raise the rent. I told her that I was working two jobs and I couldn’t pay that much. I cried.
