Rent is the keystone. Our 0% loans stop evictions before they start.
Zero-interest rent relief · Eviction prevention
Stable Home Fund makes zero-interest, no-fee rent relief loans that stop an eviction before it’s ever filed. The rent gets paid and the family stays home. Sunday morning goes on like normal.
0% interest and $0 fees, on every loan we make.
“I kept doing the same math in my head all day long. Two months behind felt like a hole we were never going to climb out of. Then the rent got paid, and I could think about dinner again.”
The pieces of a stable home
A family’s stability rests on six things at once. When one of them breaks, the rent is usually the next thing to go. We step in before that happens.
Rent is the keystone. Our 0% loans stop evictions before they start.
A family choosing between rent and groceries shouldn’t have to.
The car that gets you to the job that pays the rent.
One ER bill shouldn’t cost a family their lease.
A deposit, a working lock, and a lease in your own name.
A $400 surprise is how the spiral starts. We catch it early.
When one piece breaks, we help a family hold the rest in place until they’re steady again.
How it works
The application is short and the decision comes fast. Here is the whole process, start to finish.
8:04 a.m.
You can apply from any phone or computer, in more than 50 languages.
By lunch
Most applications get a decision within hours, while the problem is still small.
Before the 1st
We pay your landlord directly, so the eviction never gets filed.
0% interest and no fees, on every loan.
You repay when you’re back on your feet. There’s no penalty for taking the time you need.
We step in before a case is ever filed. The help is a rent payment that arrives in time to matter, not a spot on a waitlist.
Impact
Most evictions start with one missed month of rent. When help arrives early enough, the case never reaches a courtroom.
Eviction cases are filed in the United States every year.
Filings are running more than fifty percent higher than before the pandemic.

1,000+ properties nationally“We were two months behind and I had already looked up storage units. Stable Home Fund paid the rent straight to my landlord, with no interest and no fees, and nobody made me feel small for asking. When my hours came back, I paid it off a little at a time. On Sunday I made pancakes in my own kitchen and the kids argued about cartoons like nothing ever happened. That morning meant more to me than I can explain.”
You can give, apply for help, or partner with us on a program. Whichever way you come in, the result is a family that keeps their home.
