Terms of Assistance:
Maximum loan amount is $25,000. Assistance
is provided in the form of a low-interest loan. Currently, the
rate is a maximum of 3% (based on income) for a 10-year term.
The loan will be secured by a Deed of Trust on the property and
the lien will remain in effect until the loan is paid in full.
Property Requirements:
Eligible properties include single-family
homes and multi-family homes. Mobile homes are not eligible.
Homes built before 1978 will be tested for lead-based paint. If
the paint tests positive, lead-safe practices will be undertaken
during the construction process.
