The City of Chattanooga is excited to share two new dates for its Housing Resource Fair, a program designed to help connect Chattanoogans with information, resources, and support for buying, renting, or repairing a home.
The fairs feature various public and private partners, including financial institutions, eviction prevention support organizations, experts in navigating the housing voucher process, and other housing assistance resources.
The fairs will conclude with a panel session moderated by Chief Housing Officer Nicole Heyman’s team and featuring our nonprofit and private partners.
Speakers will address issues that affect access to affordable housing including financial wellbeing, what affordable housing really means, and how to access homeownership and rental resources among other topics.
Landlords who have vacant units in need of repair are also encouraged to attend to learn about the city’s rehab and repair programs, which provide financial resources to housing providers to help repair rental properties in exchange for affordable rental prices.
