US states brace for ‘avalanche’ of evictions as federal moratorium ends
Housing advocates are concerned that delays in rental assistance mean tenants will suddenly owe months of payments
Hasnain says:
This is going to be brutal.
“But only 6.5% of that money has been delivered, and advocates are concerned evictions will rise next week when renters are suddenly on the hook for months, if not a year, of unpaid rent.
Roughly 12.7 million renters told the census in late June and early July that they had no or slight confidence in being able to make next month’s rent payment.”
