Help with Rent During the Coronavirus Crisis

August 16, 2020 by The Boulder Property Network

On July 17th the State of Colorado government announced a $20 million fund, which will assist tenants and landlords with rent and mortgage payments during the coronavirus crisis. The fund’s source is the federal CARES Act. The money is distributed through a variety of housing entities throughout the state. Tenants and owners of residential real estate can call 2-1-1 and request to be connected with a local entity, which can assist in the application process for the Emergency Funds.

$20 million equates to having enough to fund $1,000 in rent and mortgages for 20,000 households. The demand for the assistance is likely to be extremely high assuming unemployment assistance is not extended by the federal government

According to the website these are the entities in Boulder County:
