The Department of Homeland Security, through the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), is seeking information from property owners regarding the Multifamily Lease and Repair (MLR) program aimed at providing temporary housing for individuals displaced by Hurricane Helene in North Carolina. The program specifically targets multifamily rental properties with two or more units located in designated counties affected by the disaster, allowing FEMA to repair or improve these properties to meet local, state, and federal standards for temporary housing. This initiative is crucial for ensuring that eligible applicants have access to safe and habitable living conditions during their recovery period, with the potential for properties to be utilized for up to 18 months. Interested property owners must submit their capabilities statements by 5:00 PM EST on November 6, 2024, to Ralph La Rosa at ralph.larosa@fema.dhs.gov, as part of the market research process for this opportunity.
