USDA Rural Development announced that funds are available to help repair homes in Washington County. The Rural Housing Service Loan and Grant Home Repair Program offers very-low income homeowners living in eligible rural areas, loans to make general home repairs or modifications, which may improve or modernize a home.
“Loans of up to $20,000 for a maximum of 20 years are available,” said Jennifer Jackson, USDA NY Rural Development Single Family Housing Program Director. “Under these terms, a $5,000 loan would have a monthly payment of just $23. Applicants must own and occupy the home in need of repair and meet the ‘very-low income’ criteria.”
To be eligible for home repair loans, an applicant must have the ability to repay the loan, an acceptable credit history, live in a rural area and an income that falls within the very-low income category for the size of their household. ‘Very-low income’ varies throughout New York State. For example, a household of two in Washington County whose income is at or below $26,050 may be
income-eligible for the program. A one percent interest rate for a maximum term of 20 years may allow eligible homeowners the opportunity to make the home improvements they have been planning. Applicants may obtain multiple loans, with a maximum outstanding loan balance at a given time of $20,000.
Grants are available to senior rural home owners age 62 or older who cannot afford a loan. Grants are limited to a lifetime assistance of $7,500 and must be used to remove health and safety hazards or make a home more handicap accessible.
