St Petersburg Housing Fair

BAAA is partnering with the City of St Petersburg to host a housing fair for those displaced by the recent hurricanes.

This will be a one day, in -person event, at the Coliseum in St. Pete.  BAAA member apartment communities and/or property management companies will be able to reserve one or more display tables at the event (6ft x 3ft) and St. Pete residents who are displaced would have the opportunity to visit each table to learn about the various apartment communities that are present and apply to lease an apartment.

As you consider participation, please keep in mind the following:

• the City anticipates a very large turnout - the numbers displaced in the city are unprecedented;
• the City knows many of the displaced will likely have to find housing outside the City, so BAAA Member apartment communities throughout our region are encouraged to participate;
• many of the displaced are presently in temporary accommodations at hotels/vacation rentals but will need longer-term housing;
• it will likely take at several months for damaged homes to be repaired, though repair timelines will vary;
• participating apartment communities are strongly encouraged to provide flexibility in lease length, terms, and/or discounts if possible; 
• electric outlets and internet will be available at the Housing Fair.
