18

Results– Landlord Participation

  • Successes from landlord enrollment

– 9,082 rental properties – Over 7,000 properties became “Participating Landlords” – Close to 3,000 properties had tenant applications connected to the location – Landlords confirming/correcting amounts of rent due

  • Challenges from landlord enrollment

– Properties not inside the City of Houston – Properties outside of Harris county but still inside City of Houston – Properties that were commercial/retail properties – Incorrect W9-EIN/SSN verification

Results– Tenant Applications

  • Successes from Tenant Applications

– On 5/13th at 10am, over 30,000 individuals were ready to enroll – System closed within 90 minutes after 11,881 Tenant applications had been received and all funds encumbered – Majority of Tenants (10,586) certified eligibility correctly and included supporting document to verify identity – Photo ID or Utility Bill – 11,881 applications connected to close to 3,000 properties

  • Challenges from Tenant Applications

– Slow system response during the first 20 minutes – > 1,200 (10%) Tenant Applications were declined because of – duplicate applications; property not linked to Participating Landlords; Tenant did not owe rent; or Tenant was not eligible.

slide-21
SLIDE 21

21

Results– Payments

  • Successes from Payments

– $12.8 million (89%) of funds were paid within 30 days of Tenant Application (by 6/13/20) – Payments made on behalf of 10,586 Renters – Payments made to nearly 3,000 landlord properties – Pledge, Payment, and Statement Notifications to Landlords and Tenants went well. Good Communication.

  • Challenges in Payments

– Incorrect amounts reported in Tenant Applications - Refunds – Returned ACH’s – incorrect LL bank information – Delay in reimbursement from the City of Houston

slide-22
SLIDE 22

22

Results– Social Vulnerability

  • The Declined Applications (1,207) led to new opportunity
  • Approx. $1.5m in Rental Assistance Funds available for ‘equity

adjustments’

  • Payment Data was evaluated in conjunction with Social

Vulnerability Index and the number of rental properties within the City of Houston

  • New Targets by Zip Code were established and additional

enrollment is being pursued with the remaining funds

What we are already thinking about:

41

What will be the community impact when the eviction moratorium ends? Shelters may continue to operate at 50% capacity due to overall health and wellness of clients. How does that impact our ability to meet the needs of those experiencing homelessness? How can we support those individuals/families who will be experiencing housing instability for the first time?

slide-42
SLIDE 42

What we are already thinking about:

42

Where do COVID-19+ visitors go when they can’t return home and need to isolate? Locals? What about individuals/families where the job they had before will never be coming back? Is this ever going to end?!

(Yes. Someday. ☺)
