AHC’s top priority is to help our residents stay in their homed during this challenging time. As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, we understand that many residents are experiencing difficult financial situations. To help, we are extending our current rental relief programs in order to provide more flexibility on rental payments for the rest of 2020. As a result, AHC Management has suspended all late fees and evictions until December 31, 2020. In addition, AHC Management will make sure that there will be NO RENT INCREASES for all residents through January 1, 2021.
