MyRoomie SafeStay: Emergency Accommodation

At MyRoomie, we strive to have a positive impact on our cities and neighborhoods. That's why we're proud to offer a new service to help individuals and families in times of need. Through the MyRoomie SafeStay: Emergency Accommodation service, we connect property owners who have available spaces with those affected by natural disasters, personal hardships, or those at risk.

Participating in the MyRoomie SafeStay: Emergency Accommodation service is easy. Property owners can declare their willingness to offer their free space on our site during the listing process (or later) and choose the situations in which they would like to offer it. We have created guidelines and criteria that all property owners must follow to ensure the safety and security of all parties involved. Additionally, we will require property owners to sign a waiver or agreement indicating that they understand the risks and responsibilities associated with offering their free space in these cases.

In detail:

Natural Disasters

Property owners are willing to offer their extra rooms in situations such as hurricanes, floods, earthquakes, fires, or other natural disasters. In these cases, the property owner should ensure that the spare room is safe and accessible and that any potential hazards (such as broken windows or exposed wires) are addressed before offering the room.

Personal Hardship

Property owners are willing to offer their extra rooms in situations where an individual or family is experiencing a personal crisis or emergency. Examples may include sudden illness or injury, domestic violence, or homelessness. In these cases, the property owner should ensure that the individual or family is in a safe and stable condition before offering the room and should have appropriate resources available (such as emergency contacts or medical supplies).

Risk to Individuals

Property owners are willing to offer their extra rooms in situations where an individual is at risk of harm or endangered by others. Examples may include situations of domestic violence, stalking, or harassment. In these cases, the property owner should take appropriate measures to ensure the safety and security of the individual, ensuring they have a safe and private place to stay.

We understand that life can be unpredictable, and we're here to help you navigate these difficult situations.

If you are in an emergency situation, please contact us using the form you can find here.

If you are a property owner who would like to give back to the community through MyRoomie SafeStay: Emergency Accommodation and offer your free space in times of crisis, please indicate this during the listing process. We are here to make a positive impact on the world and help those in need.
