Take Control of Your Home’s Future with Home Improvement Grants

Low-income homeowners often require funding to address various needs such as repairing
critical issues like roofing, plumbing, or enhancing energy efficiency. They may also need financial
support to upgrade their properties or remove safety hazards. Without adequate funding, these
necessary repairs may be delayed, leading to worsening damages and expensive problems in the
future. Home improvement grants provide free financial assistance to eligible applicants, helping
them preserve the value of their homes and bring properties up to code, ensuring safety and
long-term stability.

One of the major programs offering these grants is the Home Investment Partnership Program
(HOME), run by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). This program
provides grants to low-income homeowners to create affordable housing options. To qualify for
a HOME grant, your income must not exceed 30% of the HUD-adjusted median family income for
your area. Another option is the Section 504 Home Repair Program, which offers loans and home
improvement grants to low-income and elderly homeowners to cover the cost of necessary
repairs or modernization. Funds from this program can be used to replace important fixtures such
as foundations, septic systems, or make homes more accessible for those with disabilities.

Grants by the Department of Veterans Affairs

The Native American Housing Improvement Program (HIP), managed by the Bureau of Indian
Affairs (BIA), provides home improvement grants to federally recognized Native American tribes
for repairs, replacement, and renovation projects. Additionally, the Department of Veterans
Affairs (VA) offers the Specially Adapted Housing (SAH) grant to service members with disabilities
related to their military service. This grant provides up to $117,014 to eligible veterans to help
them purchase or update their homes to meet their individual needs. Another VA program, the
Special Home Adaptation (SHA) grant, offers up to $23,444 in 2024 to support veterans with
different kinds of disabilities, providing essential funding for home improvements.

Temporary Residence Adaptation (TRA) Grant

The Temporary Residence Adaptation (TRA) Grant is a variant of the SAH and SHA grants,
designed to assist veterans and service members in adapting to a family member’s home where
they currently reside. In addition, the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP)
offers grants to low-income families to improve safety and health, as well as reduce energy costs.
Homeowners can also explore the Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC), which allows them to
borrow against their home equity and repay the loan over time. Another option is the
Weatherization Assistance Program by the U.S. Department of Energy, which provides home
