When Home Is No Longer There: Taking Action for Los Angeles Fire Victims

I've spent my career thinking about what 'home' means. But nothing brings its significance into sharper focus than seeing thousands of Los Angeles families forced to flee theirs as fires continue to spread. These aren't just statistics – they're our neighbors, friends, and families facing the unthinkable question: "Where do we go now?"

Across LA, communities are creating shared resources to connect displaced families with available homes. We're joining these grassroots efforts, adding our network's inventory to these widely-distributed databases to ensure every possible housing option reaches those who need it.

Through HomeBridge - our crisis housing program that has helped over 13,000 displaced families find relief - we're taking immediate action. But this moment calls for something bigger than any single organization or program.

Here's How We Can Help Each Other:

If You're a Property Partner: Your vacant units can be a lifeline. We're actively contributing to community housing databases that are already making a difference. If you’re willing to donate vacant units, please email homebridge@apartmentlist.com, and a member of our Home Bridge team will reach out promptly to guide you through the process. CTA

If You Need Housing: Here are rental resources during this difficult time. If you are in need of temporary or permanent housing, please email homebridge@apartmentlist.com and a member of our Home Bridge team will connect with you.

The multifamily industry has always been about more than buildings – it's about creating homes and supporting communities. Today, that mission has never been more critical. Our team is working around the clock to expand available apartments, so that every family has a path to safe shelter.

Let's show what's possible when we come together.
