'I put the rent money on a credit card, and I got a second job to pay for it.'

I have a three-bedroom apartment in Brooklyn, New York. The rent is $1,900. I had a verbal rental agreement with relatives . They were experiencing some financial hardship, and I wanted to assist in some way.

“‘I paid my mortgage and rent for two months, which was a financial burden. I feel betrayed. They have shown no remorse.’” They are definitely in the wrong, and take no accountability. I did not want to let the apartment go, because it’s rent stabilized and now it’s my son’s apartment, so it really worked out.Financially ExhaustedI agree with you: Yes, your relatives were wrong to agree to rent the property, and then renege on their promise, and drag it out for two months. If their belongings were there and you had an agreement, they should have paid you rent.

Assuming that, you still didn’t get the rental agreement in writing. You never sought or received a deposit and the first month’s rent before they moved in. That’s on you. You are responsible for covering your bases, especially if you have no cashflow.
