FAQ'S
  1. IS THERE A FEE?

    We are a non-profit agency and there is no charge for our services.

  2. DO WE SCREEN LANDLORDS/TENANTS?

    We do not act as an agent for any party, we do not screen the tenants and we do not inspect the accommodations being offered. We provide the rental information so the tenant may inspect the unit and decide for him or herself if the unit services their needs. It is the Tenants responsibility to ensure the unit is legal and meets building code regulations.

  3. I AM BEING EVICTED AT THE END OF THE MONTH. WHERE CAN I GO?
