PROPERTY OWNER ENGAGEMENT PROGRAM

Property Owner Engagement

Do you own a property in Alameda County? Do you have available housing units or rooms to rent and want to help permanently house residents experiencing homelessness or at risk of homelessness?

Property Owner Incentives Include:

• Liaison services for property owners and wrap around support for tenants.
• Single point of contact for property owners.
• Possible Financial Incentives - move-in bonuses, risk mitigation funds (support for repairs etc.), rent arrears.
• Incentives vary according to subsidy programs and individual agency’s programs.
