At Sound Point Property Management, we are always on the lookout for helpful resources for landlords and tenants regarding COVID-19.
We wanted to make sure you are aware of the Eviction Resolution Pilot Program; Helping Tenants and Landlords avoid Eviction Proceedings during COVID-19
From their website:
“The objective of the ERP is to:
- Bring all parties to the table with the assistance of qualified and trained Eviction Resolution Specialists;
- Explore the amount of rent arrears, the current and prospective circumstances of the tenant, the availability of rent and other assistance to cure or partially cure the arrearage;
- Discover a range of other terms that might resolve the matter in a way that allows the tenant to retain housing (and avoid the need for filing of an unlawful detainer action).”
