Home repair

I purchased a home I think about 3 years ago. It was a cheap cash money home so from the beginning I knew it was going to be a process to fix it. I only bought it because me and my 3 kids have been homeless off and on for as long as I can remember and I don’t have family or friends support. I did have people lined up that told me before buying that they would be there to help me with fixing it but once I moved in everyone disappeared. I’m currently working but my job is only giving me part time hours and I’m also dealing with 2 of my kids and their mental health. Those two were physically abused when they were very young. I was in a bad domestic situation and had to escape some years back. My boys are suffering mentally with anger and depression and I can’t leave them home by themselves which also affects me working as much as I wish I could. I’m currently waiting to hear back from a disability decision for one of my boys so I can get them better therapy. My home is not livable whatsoever ever. I did a roof estimate a few months ago and he priced it at $11,000 alone. I have a water leak that is constantly running and it’s messing up my only working bathroom. The floors are so soft. I already have one huge hole in the floor in my bedroom. The electrical stuff in this house is a hazard. The box is always buzzing and I can’t cook properly without the breaker popping. I don’t have a stove. In the winter it’s brutal. I do have one propane wall heater but it barely heats the area it’s located in. I can’t run heaters because it’s too much on the breaker. I can barley run my dryer. I also get snakes, rats and just recently opossum in my home. I don’t know how they are getting in but they are. I honestly don’t even know what’s the cheapest route. To fix this house up or move. I would like to put something on my land but I don’t have the upfront money or the credit to do it. I was possibly thinking of a tiny home. I could sell and get enough to move but I don’t want to rent anything because I can’t afford any notes. Either way I’m stuck in this financial mess and I’m trying so hard how to figure all this stuff out. I know raising or asking for money is the worst thing to do because there are so many dishonest people in the world but I’m so serious as to needing this help. I’m probably even low balling the $30,000 asking price. My truck is messing up and I’ve put so much money into it even and it still runs crappy. I don’t know what to do anymore. My life is fading away and I just want my kids to have everything they need. I’m already living way below my means even when I had extra money in my pocket. Please help me.
