Once upon a time, there lived a tenant named Timmy, who lived in a small house with his parents. Timmy was very fond of his house and loved to play in his room and garden. However, one day, Timmy's parents received a notice from the mortgage originator that their house was in dire need of a rehab.

Timmy's parents were worried because they did not have enough money to pay for the rehab. They decided to take a survey of their options and came across a new recourse called "Rent-a-Rehab". According to this recourse, the tenant could pay for the rehab through their rent, with just a small margin added to it.

Timmy's parents were very happy to hear about this option and decided to go for it. They contacted Rent-a-Rehab and soon a team of builders arrived to start the rehab. Timmy was excited to see the builders at work and loved to help them in any way he could.

The builders worked very hard and within no time, the house was completely rehabbed. Timmy was overjoyed to see his house looking so beautiful and he couldn't stop thanking his parents for choosing the Rent-a-Rehab option.

From that day on, Timmy and his parents lived happily in their beautifully rehabbed house. Timmy loved playing in his room and garden and was proud to show it off to all his friends.

And so, the story ends with Timmy and his family living happily ever after, all thanks to the Rent-a-Rehab recourse and the small margin added to their rent.
