    Short Virtual Meeting Tue July 20: Lunch and Learn Help Session on Security Deposits

    12:00 PM-1:00 PM
    07/20/2021

    A few security deposit slides will motivate a help session where you can bring your own security deposit questions and we will do our best to answer them. Or you can attend without any questions just to watch and learn from others.

    Security deposits are one of the primary liabilities for Massachusetts landlords. If you make a paperwork mistake,
    you might owe your renter three times the amount of the deposit plus attorney’s fees. And
    what a lot of paperwork there is! First receipt, second receipt, annual receipt, conditions statement, withholding receipt,
    signed under the pains and penalties of perjury… Should you even bother?

    Well yes, you can successfully take a security deposit.
    We’ll show you how!

    We’ll be giving an overview of the law and will screenshare some the forms available on our site


    You’ll be ready to take a fully compliant security deposit after this training

    Statewide Short Virtual Meeting Wed July 28: Tenancy Preservation Program

    12:00 PM-12:50 PM
    07/28/2021

    This part of the presentation will give attendees a comprehensive overview of the Tenancy Preservation Program (TPP). TPP helps landlords who otherwise would have to evict a renter for behavioral challenges. We will cover:

    • TPP-eligible conditions that can destabilize a tenancy:
      • Hoarding
      • Dementia
      • Long Covid
      • Hearing impairment
      • Domestic violence
      • and more
    • How to access TPP services either by
      • Filing in court
      • Applying before court
    • What a successful TPP intervention entails
    • and more!

    The Tenancy Preservation Program can be a godsend in certain situations where a tenant could be successful if only they had some non-financial help. TPP is not a rental subsidy; TPP offers non-subsidy help.

    Attendees will leave with knowledge of the program, confidence in working with a range of TPP-related disabilities and conditions, and pro tips for getting renters in need the help they deserve.
