Do you have a conflict around housing and need help?
We provide help communicating about and solving issues about rental housing for both tenants and landlords, and between roommates. Our Dispute Resolution Center can help resolve problems without going to court, at no cost.
Connect and solve problems like:
ꞏ Rent-owed including repayment plans and debt resolution plans ꞏ
Helping landlords and tenants create action plans on issues such as late rent, property care and cleanliness, noise, property rules and common space
Communicating with each other about costs and timing on rent or repairs
Our non-profit team works with you directly to find a solution that works for your life and situation. That includes communicating with the help of a trained facilitator, individual advice and coaching, and mediation between people who have a conflict.
In conflict resolution, you have a say in the outcome. You can brainstorm ideas and weigh choices with a professionally trained mediator. You choose the end result that works for you, and the solutions are not mandatory.
