COVID-19 & rental information update FOR MHI TENANTS
|
MARCH 30, 2020 | Dear Residents: I hope that as time goes on you are finding this situation easier to cope with and comfort in new routines and ways of connecting to family, friends and neighbours. Please remember to reach out if you are anxious, have any questions or just want to talk.
We know that some of you may have heard that renters won’t be evicted for not paying their rent, or that one housing provider in Ottawa has said their residents don’t have to pay their April rent. We want you to know that your April rent is still due on April 1st. If you know that you aren’t going to be able to pay your rent on April 1st, please contact us so we can discuss options and resources that may be available to you.... |
