Housing Rehabilitation Program

How it works

The Town of Windsor’s Housing Rehabilitation Program provides financial and technical assistance to eligible property owners for rehabilitation of residential properties. The town says the intent is to preserve housing stock, help provide decent and safe housing for low- and moderate-income residents, improve energy efficiency, and encourage neighborhood reinvestment.

The town’s public meeting materials describe the program as offering zero percent amortizing loans. They also say the town can apply CDBG funds to recapitalize the program.

What the money covers

The town meeting materials state eligible home improvement activities include:

• Correction of housing code violations
• Correction of fire code violations, if applicable
• Cost-effective energy conservation measures
• Modifications to improve handicapped accessibility
• Hazardous material abatement and/or containment

Amounts and matching

The reviewed program page does not state a maximum loan amount or match requirement. Town meeting materials say the program can assist single-unit to three-unit housing.

How to apply

The town’s program page says the Housing Rehabilitation Program is administered locally by the Office of Community Development. The reviewed page does not provide the full application workflow.

Timing and deadlines

The reviewed materials do not state a deadline or current round opening date.
