Renter Information

The Mississippi Apartment Association (MAA) is a trade organization that represents companies that own and manage apartment communities, as well as businesses that provide products and services to the apartment industry.

As a professional association, MAA is not involved in property management and is therefore unable to respond to resident inquiries or resolve individual issues.

If you have a concern, we recommend reaching out directly to your onsite property manager, the corporate office of your apartment community, or your local housing authority.

For legal matters, we encourage you to consult with an attorney who specializes in landlord-tenant law in Mississippi to ensure you receive guidance specific to your situation.

MAA doesn't offer a service to help people find a new home, but many of our members provide that service.
