re: Lake Charles evacuees determined to have minor damage to homes asked to leave hotels

My home was destroyed by Laura. I'm working up near Pittsburgh and was going to come home after Laura. But, I make a decent wage and would have no work back home. It was determined that my grown sons would take care of the work/labor that had to be done right away and my wife could handle insurance and repair contractors.

So, I stayed working to send home as much $ as I can. My wife and son that still lives at home went to stay at my oldest son's apartment. It worked great as a place to sleep/base of operations. Then, Delta hit.

It flooded my son's apartment.

They stayed at a hotel for a couple days, then went back to the apartment to dry it out. Even flooded, it was still in much better shape than our house. Yesterday, the apartment manager let them know they had to be out by Sunday so repairs could be made. They said it would probably take a couple of months.

My family lives and works in Lake Charles. They need to be IN Lake Charles. Problem is, seems there's no places to be had...

In fact, if anyone knows of a place to rent for a little while, I'd appreciate the information.
