If you are a renter call your landlord to discuss payment options. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac will offer multifamily property owners mortgage forbearance if they suspend evictions for renters unable to pay rent due to the coronavirus.
The coronavirus response bill provides 120 days of eviction relief for people in federally funded housing. This means landlords may not charge tenants late fees for delayed payments.
The new law also provides additional dollars to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development to fund housing vouchers and rent assistance.
Renters seeking financial assistance should contact The Fair Housing Action Center of Maryland.
