The Mayor’s Of ce of Housing Recovery is asking Queens, Brooklyn and Staten Island landlords, brokers, real estate agents and af liated professionals to provide available apartments to Build it Back homeowners. Short-term lease units of less than one year are desired. In addition, the Of ce of Housing Recovery Operations seeks ADA compliant and/or pet-friendly units to accommodate household needs. The Housing Recovery Of ce is moving aggressively toward Mayor Bill de Blasio’s goal of program completion by the end of 2016. Build it Back has now raised more than 300 homes citywide, started construction on over 3,000 and nished construction on over 2,000 — including 1,455 starts and 858 completes in Queens. In April of 2014, the City dedicated funding for a Temporary Relocation Assistance program, which reimburses homeowners for rental expenses while they’re displaced during construction. Monthly rents start at approximately $1,500 a month for a one person household and up to $2,700 for a household size of 5 or more. In June 2015, Build it Back, the Mayor’s Fund to Advance NYC, and the New York Disaster Interfaith Services (NYDIS) launched the privately-funded Sandy Temporary Rental Program to provide housing assistance for vulnerable and under resourced homeowners for the duration of construction. The program supplements the bene ts available to Build it Back homeowners through the Temporary Relocation Assistance program. All landlords will be reimbursed up to the rental amounts speci ed in the chart below. Landlords interested in helping can call the Build it Back Temporary Helpline at (646) 757-2886.
