Evaluate Your Rent

HARD PASS

The rental asking price is ABOVE fair market rent as determined by HUD. If you agree to take this lease, at this price, you will be contributing to the economical impacts of gentrification. We understand that the house search process is frustrating and housing options can be limited but we urge you to consider how the impact of pushing out communities with historic roots is violence that we can stand against by collectively refusing to contribute to raising housing costs.

CAUTION

The rental asking price is at fair market rent as determined by HUD. If you agree to take this lease, at this price, we encourage you to discuss rental increase terms and histories with your landlord.
