Maggie, originally from Chile, was living with her daughter’s family in a crowded home. She searched for a place of her own, but navigating the complex rental process was proving to be a challenge. With a limited income from her Chilean retirement plus family support, Maggie needed assistance to secure an affordable apartment.
The lack of affordable housing for vulnerable individuals like Maggie was evident throughout her search. With rising rents, finding a place within her budget seemed nearly impossible. Many apartment complexes require tenants to earn 2.5 times the rent, leaving Maggie without many options. She wasn’t alone; others in her community, especially those with limited incomes or language barriers, faced similar challenges.
“En mi caso toda la orientación y explicación a cada pregunta que yo tenía siempre me ayudó mucho y así pude cumplir mi sueño de estar en mi propio lugar.”
"In my case, all the guidance and explanations to each question that I had, helped me a lot and so I was able to fulfill my dream of being in my own place."
