Covid 19 - On Delaying Rent Payments - Federal Eviction Protection Ends July 25th

The Federal Cares Act that was passed in March, provides the strongest protections to renters who live in communities that receive federal funds or are a part of federal programs.  However, if you or someone else is living in a rental not protected, well rent will be expected to be paid sooner rather than later.

For 120 days, residents at rental properties did not have to pay late fees, rent or worry about being evicted.  But when July 25th rolls around, those who have yet to pay rent, can be asked to leave by their landlords.  The soonest management can file an eviction is August 24th.  The following is a list of helpful resources:
