Webinar

Join Amy Briggs and Tony Schoenberg in the discussion on "What Nonprofits Need to Know About Landlord-Tenants Relationships and Insurance."

Real estate is one of the most significant costs for an exempt organization. Furthermore, the laws governing landlord-tenant relationships are complicated, as is a well-designed insurance program. These complexities have been further exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic and the various governmental closure orders enacted in response to it. Understanding your rights and legal obligations in this environment will help you protect your organization and navigate it through this difficult time. Join this webinar as we discuss:

  • Federal, state and local eviction moratoriums, including the status of litigation challenging the moratoriums
  • Tenant bankruptcies
  • Potential coverages for real estate business losses and liabilities
