Types of Funding Provided
Minor Home Repair Grants
A limited number of repair grants are available, which cost the homeowner nothing. Grants may be approved for health and safety problems only. Common uses for the grant program are replacing water heaters, and minor plumbing or electrical repairs.
Loans for Mobile Homes
Loans are available for mobile homes in need of major repairs. These loans have 0% interest with a 20-year term. After the first 10 years of the loan term, 10% of the loan amount will be forgiven each subsequent year, until it’s completely forgiven at year 20.
Major Home Repair Loans
For major repairs, one-time loans up to $75,000 are available. With an affordable 3% simple annualized interest, loans can be either amortized (requiring monthly payments), or deferred (no monthly payments) for a 15-year term. Loans are not to be used for a home about to be sold, or to subsidize renovations already under construction. Mobile or manufactured homes are ineligible for this loan.
Common uses for the loan program include: reroofing, sewer line replacement, furnace installation, electrical/plumbing repair, and termite and dry rot damage repair.
