The FEMA Direct Lease Program is a housing assistance program to lease properties not usually available to the public and existing rental units for the purpose of providing temporary housing to eligible applicants who are displaced due severe storms, flooding, straight-line winds, and tornados under FEMA DR-4796 in the State of Iowa. FEMA may utilize these units for eligible applicants who are unable to use rental assistance due to lack of available resources.

**Note:** the term Contractor will be used to refer to Contractor/Property Managers/Housing Solutions Vendors/Property Owners hereafter. This effort is solicited as a Small Business Set-Aside under North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code is 531110 - Lessors of Residential Buildings and Dwellings.
