Rent Faster offering free listings for accommodations to wildfire evacuees

Aug 24, 2023 | 10:39 AM

Online rental platform Rent Faster is working to help provide accommodations to people displaced by recent wildfires.

The web site is providing free listing services for landlords willing to make their rental properties available as temporary accommodations for evacuees.

According to the Grande Prairie Regional Emergency Partnership, Grande Prairie is listed as at capacity for evacuees and can not directly provide housing for anyone fleeing the fires anymore.

Interested landlords can participate in Rent Faster’s initiative by visiting their web site and listing available properties at no cost.
