A landlord who is part of our Landlord Housing Partnership smiles outside one of her rental units.

We’re connecting landlords with housing support services.

Landlord Housing Partnership assists landlords who rent to community members with past evictions, poor credit histories, or criminal records. The tenants receive case management services from health and social service nonprofits. Opportunities for both are growing.

Financial Incentives

Having experienced homelessness can complicate leasing rental units. We offer landlords financial backstops and incentives to sign and keep leases. Participants can access neutral, mutually beneficial spaces to communicate and third-party case management if issues arise.

Reliable Backing

Reduced risk helps landlords say yes to applicants they might otherwise overlook. With added support in place, more doors can open to stable housing.

Extra Supports

Anchorage has few housing options, but landlords can help others overcome housing barriers. Sometimes tenants need support to help secure and keep housing. Landlords receive resources to make rental units available for people exiting homelessness.

Ongoing Involvement

Stable housing often depends on continued support. Problem-solving assistance and trusted partnerships help tenancies succeed for both landlords and renters.
