Searching for affordable housing is no easy task, especially if a family has specific needs such as finding a landlord who will accept a Section 8 Voucher or who will allow a smoker or someone with less than perfect credit.
Community Partnership of the Ozarks is now providing SocialServe Housing Locator, a free, online rental property search service that connects people with available rental housing in Greene, Christian and Webster counties.
SocialServe Housing Locator can be accessed on CPO s homepage at cpozarks.org. Scroll down to search or list properties, or call 1-877-428-8844 or 7-1-1 for TTY.
The goal is to help folks make informed decisions when exploring housing options.
The Revive 66 Campground doesn t open until 8 p.m., but on Thursday a handful of people were waiting outside the gates by 7 p.m. Some said they had been there for a few hours to make sure they got a trailer.
There are currently 10 teardrop trailers and three units that are accessible to those with disabilities on the property, which are rented on a first-come, first-serve basis. More trailers will be delivered this week and in the coming weeks.
The campground is open Monday through Friday but that will switch to seven days a week as soon as there are enough trailers to make it financially feasible to hire more staff.
