How to Apply for an Emergency Rental Assistant in Houston


In this community resource guide, I will explain how to apply for emergency rental assistance in Houston.

If you find yourself in the unfortunate position of needing help to pay your monthly rent, this guide will help you to better understand the process.

There are many programs in Houston that help with rent, however, many serve different zip codes and require you to submit multiple documents in order to qualify.

In this article, I will help you to understand the process to give you the best chance of getting approved for one of these Houston emergency rental assistance programs.

Who Provides Emergency Assistance In Houston If I Cannot Make My Rent Payment?

In order to get emergency rental assistance, you will need to contact a local nonprofit or religious organization. If you live in the city of Greater Houston area there is a good chance that one of these organizations helps your zip code with services like help to pay rent, the light bill, and other basic needs.

Later in this article, I will help you to find the specific organizations that help your zip code with emergency rent payments.

Qualifications For Houston Rent And Utility Assistance

To qualify for these Houston financial assistance programs you will need to meet certain qualifications. Essentially each nonprofit or religious organization has these requirements for rent assistance in Houston. Eligible households will need to meet these qualifications:

  1. You are currently behind with your rent or utility bill.
  2. Live in the zip code that they serve.
  3. Have a legitimate reason why you are behind with your rent. Whatever your reason for being behind in rent (hospital bills, lost your jobs, car repairs) you’ll want to provide documentation to support your story.

Documents Needed To Emergency Rental Assistance In Houston

The more organized you are the faster you will get your rent paid. Every organization is different, but in my experience, these are the documents that they will request from you.

  1. Your ID
  2. Lease from your landlord.
  3. Ledger or document showing the rent you owe.
  4. W9 form. This is a tax document that businesses have. If the landlord is unwilling to provide you with the W9, the person helping you apply for rent assistance may need to call them.
  5. Proof to support the reason you are behind in rent (hospital bill, termination letter, etc)
  6. Utility bill if you need help paying your light bill.

How To Buy Time When Waiting For Houston Rent Relief

It takes time to process a rent assistance payment, therefore you will need to do everything in your power to buy time with your landlord. Some things that you can do to curry favor with them and extend your due date are:

  1. Let them know that you have a job to return to, so you will be generating income again very soon.
  2. Remind them of your track record of paying on time if you have one. Your present inability to pay your rent is unusual, and you will return to paying on time as soon as possible.
  3. List the name of each organization that you have applied for emergency rental assistance with. This shows that you are making an effort to search for rent assistance in Harris County.

Again it takes time for rent assistance to be processed. Keeping your landlord informed on the measures you’re taking to raise cash will demonstrate that you respect them and are taking the issue seriously.

What To Do If You Cannot Get Rental Relief

Rent assistance is not guaranteed. If you are not approved for Houston emergency rental assistance funds, these are things that you can do to avoid eviction.

Learn about your tenant rights You can do this by contacting Houston Apartment Association. They specialize in educating tenants and what their tenant rights are. If you are served with a “notice to vacate” you’ll need to understand what the landlord can and cannot do.
Contact legal experts There are many probono lawyers and legal aid offices that can advise you if you are facing eviction. As a tenant you have rights and a landlord cannot kick you out of your apartment. Only a judge can do this. In our guide titled How To Get Free Legal Advice In Houston, you can find multiple law offices that will advise you of your rights for free.
Consider alternative housing options If you are facing eviction and have family members call them to see if you can stay at their home on a temporary basis. If this is not an option you can refer to our article titled 16 Affordable Houston Housing Options to see if those ideas work for you.

 

Conclusion

Emergency rental assistance programs in Houston are designed to provide temporary relief for those who have fallen behind on their rent.

These emergency financial assistance programs are not guaranteed, but by doing a little research you can find the right program that will help your household get back on its feet again.

If none of the information in this article works, our last suggestion is to call 211. They can also provide you with a listing of Houston nonprofits that help with rent and utility assistance payments.

    I am a home owner all I see here is for rental assistance, us as home owners need help time to time a s for me tight now I am unemployed and my husband is the only one working. I am trying to get help paying my light bill but it seemed like I have to be renting to get help. Not fair because we are also paying our taxes and wish we can get some sort of help also. I never ask for help and I really need it right now I lost my job almost 2 months ago and I cant seem to get help an were. it seems like all that money is only going to people who really do not need it and is waiting for the free money to come to them with out making an effort to try to find a job.
