You can solve your housing problems

Conozca las diferentes formas de resolver sus problemas de vivienda.

Documente el problema

Keeping good records is important. It’s good to have proof of the problem and how long it has existed.

Notifique a su arrendador

El arrendador es responsable de arreglar los problemas que conoce. Make sure your landlord knows about problems in your house by telling them, even if you think that they should already know. You have a right not to be retaliated against for making a complaint to your landlord about bad housing conditions.

Llame a un inspector de vivienda

Everyone has the right to have their apartment inspected by an official to make sure the apartment is up to code. If you live in public housing or have a Section 8 voucher, the Housing Authority will inspect your home at least once a year. You can call if you need them to come sooner. Find your inspector here.
