Short Term Rent Assistance
Does anyone have any experience with Oakland Livingston Human Service Agency (OLHSA) in southeast michigan? They are offering to provide a tenant who is being evicted rent assistance. They say they will need a judgment and they will pay that judgment amount as well as current rent, pending an inspection of the apartment. They say they are not a section 8 program.
I'm thinking this is maybe more hassle than it's worth. I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with this agency or other nonprofit agencies like it.

I have dealt with agencies that will help tenants that are in danger of being evicted. The ones I have received funds from generally need a copy of a 3 day (pay or quit) notice, a copy of the lease and a W9. If I'm at the point where I have a judgement I'm not taking any money, I'm moving on.
