Join the Urban Institute for a conversation on how rental housing owners and operators can mitigate evictions in the wake of the COVID-19 crisis.
Eviction has profound and long-lasting impacts on renters and their families, but it can also be costly for rental property owners and operators. The COVID-19 crisis and the ensuing economic impacts led many rental housing owners to reevaluate standard rental practices. As pandemic-era protections and supports for renters and their landlords end, these owners and operators must determine the “new normal” for tenant stability practices.
Urban and Enterprise Community Partners, with support from Stewards of Affordable Housing for the Future and Housing Partnership Network, identified five principles and associated practices to help guide owners and operators as they seek financial stability while limiting evictions.
This discussion will examine the role property owners and operators can play in eviction prevention and steps to implement these practices in both private and mission-based properties.
