Owning a home is a huge investment coming with big responsibilities. Our home is where we live, play, sleep and raise our families, but when the time for repairs comes, not all Americans can afford to maintain their home in a good and safe condition. We put together this guide for you.
Major states like California, Florida, Illinois, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Texas have robust and complete assistance programs while other smaller states sometime lack much resources for families. Big cities also always have such programs in place and some smaller counties often do.
Programs offering financial assistance through the form of grants, deferred-payments loans, no-interest loans and interest loans for low income families of owner occupied homes.
Home repair and improvement grants and aid are available through most city and county governments and also through many local organizations.
HUD provides insurance to lenders on most home improvement loans. This allows consumers to obtain a more affordable loan for home improvements and repairs.
The VA offers grant programs for active duty military personnel, reservists and veterans with service and non-service related disabilities who need to make alterations and adaptions to their homes.
HUD’s Good Neighbor NextDoor program allow full-time teachers, law enforcement, firefighters and EMT personnel to get a 50% discount on a HUD house asking price. The house needs to be in a revitalization area where the person actually work. The buyer also need to stay in the house for a minimum of 3 years. A 203k home improvement loan can be added to the home mortgage to do home repairs and home improvement. Other requirements: single family homes only.
Title I Home Improvement Loans are available through HUD approved lenders and can be used for small to large home repairs and improvements. These loans can also be used in conjunction with 203 (k) loans.
This is the main HUD program for home repair assistance to single family dwellings. The funds available from this program can also be used to expand single family dwellings. The 203 (k) rehabilitation loan can be used with other programs to finance home rehabilitation and repair projects.
We recommend you contact your closest housing department (city or county) and any local organizations proving help and get the latest information for their home improvement programs.
We try to maintain this list updated regularly but programs’ budgets can be depleted quickly and policies can change with new administrations. We recommend you use this list as a basis for your search. There may also be new programs as we speak so the best thing is to call state, city and local organizations to find out the latest and most current.
