Did You Know? Grants for Homeowners!

This program from MI-Hope is designed to help homeowners living below 300% of the Federal poverty level with housing, home repairs, and related expenses. There are some qualifications, and you must be able to show hardship from Covid-19. Qualifying property owners can receive up to $25,000 to help with major home repairs and upgrades, like roof, insulation, windows, and heating systems.

This is a huge opportunity for property owners! Hope Anderson at the Cass County COA can help you with more information, or the website for the organization and application is at https://arp.michigan.gov/p/HOPE/ApplyNow/164944336352444612
