Renters and landlords in need of financial assistance can use a new website, consumerfinance.gov/renthelp, from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to find rental assistance providers in your area.
If you know of a renter who’s having trouble paying rent, utilities, or other housing costs – or a landlord trying to stay afloat with tenants in this situation – help may be available. State and local programs are distributing billions of dollars in rental assistance to help renters stay housed during the pandemic.
Visit the CFPB’s Rental Assistance Finder to find resources for renters and landlords to help navigate various financial hardships related to the pandemic.
