Sincerely, Simpson

Last month, the National Multifamily Housing Council (NMHC) launched the Foundations for Rental Housing. These six foundations help form positive relationships between rental housing providers and residents. This relationship is a cornerstone for companies like Simpson Housing to offer residents a place to call home, build their lives, and create a sense of community.

 

The availability of quality multifamily housing and genuine customer experience is not always guaranteed. This is where Simpson Housing and other multifamily housing companies step in by supporting NMHC’s Foundations for Rental Housing; playing a crucial role in ensuring that everyone has access to a place they love to call home.

 

The Importance of Foundations for Rental Housing

According to the NMHC’s website, “America’s multifamily rental housing providers strive to provide quality housing and customer experience to millions of residents across the country. We provide a wide range of housing options that serve households at multiple price points.”

 

As a supporter of the Foundations for Rental Housing, Simpson Housing has committed to pursuing and following the fundamentals outlined on NMHC’s website:

• Engage with residents to foster an atmosphere of mutual respect, trust and communication.
• Have procedures in place to respond to resident requests.
• Comply with all applicable antidiscrimination, fair housing and fair credit laws.
• Support residents who express an interest in enhancing their credit through rent payment reporting.
• Respond to requests from residents facing financial hardship who are seeking external resources.
• Rights and responsibilities of lease holder and housing providers will be contained in the lease documents.

 

Simpson Housing is proud to be among other industry leaders who are working to, “provide a threshold for professionally managed multifamily properties.” We are committed to setting a standard for implementing these principles and participating in collaborative efforts that can lead to innovative solutions.
