Brethren Housing Organization

Brethren Housing Organization (BHO) provides rental options to Bethany students at competitive rates to other property management companies in Richmond. It is a private organization, made up of Bethany supporters.

Houses are all within a mile of the Bethany campus. Rent varies by house and in most cases, utilities are the responsibility of the renter. Pets are permitted in only a few homes, and with express permission from the BHO coordinator. Kitchen and laundry appliances are provided; some houses are partially furnished.

The number of vacancies in BHO houses varies each year. Contact the Director of Student Development for information about vacancies, to arrange a tour during your campus visit, or to get in touch the coordinator for BHO rentals.
