Making Change – Renting 101
The cost of housing is typically one of the highest items in our budgets monthly. Knowing what you can afford as well as your responsibilities as a tenant is important, and we want to make sure you have the tools that are needed to succeed. This workshop will focus on how to determine affordability, pitfalls for renters who are not prepared and how rental counseling can help you create a plan and stay on track.
