Resident Assistance Program
Essex Property Trust has a long history and track record in supporting our residents and that is especially true in times of need. The Resident Assistance Program offers an immediate bridge between crisis and stability for households threatened with unforeseen and temporary financial setbacks, thereby limiting the ability to perform their lease obligations.

One example is the COVID-19 pandemic that impacted over 7,000 of our residents from loss and reduced employment, taking care of love ones, and other reasons.  Residents who are impacted by COVID-19 may need temporary rent relief as their income has been impacted and Essex would like to help these residents in times of need.  The program will provide a one-time grant to qualifying households to provide temporary relief.

Additionally, this program will assist select residents transitioning from approved BMR units with upcoming expiration to relocate or continue to stay within the community.  These programs are at management discretion.

30-Day Guarantee Program
At Essex, we strive to make the resident's move as stress-free and comfortable as possible. If the resident is not 100% satisfied with their home for any reason, they may transfer to a comparable residence within the community. If a similar home is not available, they may transfer to a comparable home in another Essex community or terminate their lease. 

Resident Referral Program
The resident referral program is designed to encourage our current residents to recommend our Essex communities to their friends and family. In doing so, they will receive an extra monteary incentive.
