Program details

How it works

St. Lucie County says its Housing Rehabilitation Program is funded through the FY 2025–2026 State Housing Initiatives Partnership (SHIP) program. The county is using the funds to help income-eligible homeowners in unincorporated St. Lucie County pay for necessary repairs that correct code violations, eliminate health and safety hazards, and improve overall livability.

What the money covers

The county’s Housing Division says rehabilitation assistance can help with repairs that address health, safety, and code concerns, including roof, heating and cooling, and septic system work. The page frames the assistance as intended to preserve existing housing and keep homes safe and stable.

Timing and deadlines

The county page states that the maximum number of applications has been submitted and the application is closed. It also says applications were scheduled to open on May 18, 2026 at 9:00 a.m. and close on May 22, 2026, or sooner if the county received the maximum number of completed applications.

What to know before applying

The page specifically says emergency repairs are not covered. It also says funding is limited and approval is not guaranteed, and that applications may be ranked under SHIP requirements and available funding, with priority possibly based on household type and income category.
