    Webinar Wed June 24: A Fair and Equal Housing Guarantee via Surety Bonds

    12:00 PM-1:00 PM
    06/24/2020

    The eviction moratorium may have made sense from a public health point of view back in March, but without any funding the same
    tidal wave of evictions is still coming, only later. At least a year’s worth of cases will be filed the week the moratorium ends.
    And cumulative arrearages the last three months have been 19%, meaning potentially hundreds of millions of dollars would have to be paid
    to keep every renter out of court. What can be done?

    This webinar will review our Fair and Equal Housing Guarantee via Surety Bonds. We will review the basic concept of a housing guarantee,
    and the key players needed to make it work. Landlords, renters, surety bond companies, and the Commonwealth must all work together.
    Then we will discuss mechanics of how landlords can get the bond, what they can or cannot do while holding a bond, and how they can get repaid. Finally,
    we will look at mechanisms for funding surety.

    Attendees will leave with a better understanding of the talking points, prepared for advocacy with your representative and senator and others in the community.
