Rehabilitation and repair loan (insurance): Known as “Title I Property Improvement Loan Program”, it helps you if you have not enough equity for a traditional loan, and the FHA (part of HUD) insure your loan for your lender.

In both Tittle 1 and 203(k), the money for the renovations is put in an escrow account and is only released to the contractor when the work is completed and inspected by a qualified professional.

Texas TDHCA (2 programs)
TDHCA provides home repair and home improvement funding with a few repair assistance programs.
Homeowner Rehabilitation Assistance (HRA) Program
Purpose: The HRA program provides funding to low- to moderate-income homeowners for repairing, rehabilitating, or reconstructing homes that are no longer safe or habitable. The program focuses on essential repairs that address health, safety, and accessibility issues.
Funding Structure: Assistance is typically provided as either a grant or a deferred forgivable loan (which does not have to be repaid if certain conditions are met). The amount of assistance varies based on the extent of repairs and the specific requirements of the administering local government or nonprofit.
Eligibility:
Income: Must earn less than 80% of the Area Median Income (AMI), adjusted for family size.
Homeownership: The applicant must own and occupy the home that needs repairs.
Type of Repairs: The program is designed to address major home issues, including structural repairs, roofing, electrical, plumbing, and accessibility modifications.
Application Process: The program is administered through local entities like cities, counties, or nonprofit organizations that receive TDHCA funding. Homeowners must apply through these local partners, and funding is typically limited, so priority may be given based on the severity of the home’s condition.
Target Population: The program is especially beneficial for elderly homeowners, persons with disabilities, and low-income families living in rural areas or small communities.
Texas Bootstrap Loan Program
Purpose: The Texas Bootstrap Loan Program is a self-help housing program that provides loans to very low-income families to either build or rehabilitate their homes. The program relies on the homeowner’s “sweat equity” (physical labor) to significantly reduce construction costs.
Loan Amount: Eligible homeowners can receive loans of up to $45,000 for building or rehabilitating a home. These loans are interest-free but must be repaid.
Sweat Equity Requirement: Homeowners must contribute at least 65% of the labor needed to construct or rehabilitate their homes. They can be assisted by family members, friends, or volunteers, but paid labor is limited.
Eligibility:
Income: Households must earn 60% or less of the Area Median Family Income (AMFI).
Land Ownership: Applicants must already own the land or have a lease-purchase agreement for the land where the home will be built or rehabilitated.
Self-Help: The program is designed for people willing to invest their own labor to reduce costs.
How it Works: Homeowners usually partner with nonprofit organizations approved by TDHCA to manage the project, provide technical assistance, and supervise the construction or rehabilitation process. The funds can be used for building materials and essential construction-related costs.
Target Population: The program primarily serves rural communities and very low-income families who may not otherwise qualify for traditional loans. It’s also useful for those looking to reduce costs by contributing their own labor.
