Clarity on registering vacant housing units

NMHC has posted a very clearly written new page that asks landlords to enter their available vacant housing units into the hurricanehousing.net system even if they have already registered those units at SWERN, saying "...(We are no longer confident that the information will be automatically transferred into www.hurricanehousing.net.)..." It then adds that landlords willing to lease blocks of 10 units or more to FEMA should "please continue to submit that information to private.sector@dhs.gov." NMHC adds, "We have attempted to avoid the duplicative request, but now believe it is the only way to avoid creating dozens of state and local databases and to avoid any further delays in moving people from shelters into short- and long-term housing."
