Houston based property management firm, Tarantino Properties Inc. has been in the forefront of recovery and rebuilding after Hurricane Harvey. Nearly two months later, people are still moving out of mold-infested units and looking for a new beginning. Tarantino worked tirelessly before, during, and after the storm with property owners and residents to implement emergency management plans for the properties that they service. With properties throughout the United States, Tarantino is very experienced in preventative maintenance measures as well as disaster clean up and assessment. “We were literally on the ground immediately working to assess the damage within our communities, and provide solutions,” Vice President of Operations for Tarantino, Telisia Amaning states.

Tarantino has been a critical asset to alleviate the immediate housing demand throughout the region. While some of their own offices were inaccessible, Tarantino employees worked around the clock, going to shelters with applications, waiving fees, and moving in residents as quickly as possible. As new residents poured into the properties, the resounding need for furnishings and basic necessities was evident.

Tarantino worked quickly to contact several companies for discounted furniture packages. When they contacted Rent-A-Center, their corporate team instead graciously donated 44 fully furnished home packages to areas hit hard by the flooding. Furnishings include living room, dining room, bedrooms, television with TV stand, dining table and chairs, headboard, queen size mattress, and dresser. Gina Hethcock from Rent-A-Center stated, “Our hearts go out to those affected by Hurricane Harvey, many who have no home to go back to. We hope that the furnished apartments will ease some of their worry and heartbreak, even if it is temporary, while they rebuild or find a new home.”

As the journey continues for Harvey victims to find their new normal, stories like this highlight that rebuilding is a long process. With so many of these residents having lost so much, the continual support of companies like Tarantino and Rent-A-Center provides hope and real solutions.
