tenants.jpgBeing a tenant can be a tough job!  
Housing is a basic need. The risk of losing it can complicate life quickly.  Many tenants don’t understand their rights or how to get help when their housing is threatened. When things go wrong, it is easy to feel powerless at the very moment when your power is most needed.

 

MFR understands, and knows how to help. We have worked with thousands of  tenants and residents to get them the information, resources and direct services they need to resolve their housing problems. Most services are FREE.  

 

Do you fear   - losing your home?  - eviction if you can't pay back-rent?  - nobody can help?

 

We can help you

  • Understand and deal with eviction issues
  • Contact your landlord to resolve a problem 
  • Get your landlord to complete necessary repairs
  • Understand your rights and responsibilities
  • Coach you in difficult situations and stay involved
  • Develop a plan to stabilize your housing and access resources
  • Deal with neighbor disturbances that are affecting your housing
