Housing Improvement Programs

How it works

The City of Chicopee says it sponsors a variety of housing assistance programs funded by the Office of Community Development. On the housing page, these programs are described as low-interest loans available to city residents and property owners.

What the money covers

The page lists the following uses for assistance:

• correcting code violations
• de-leading
• home repairs
• making housing handicapped accessible
• purchasing for 1st-time homebuyers
• renovating

Amounts and matching

• The page does not give a dollar cap, interest rate, or matching requirement.
• It also does not break out separate amounts for each activity listed.

How to apply

• Interested people are told to contact the Chicopee Office of Community Development for more information.
• Phone: 413-594-1490

Timing and deadlines

• No application deadline, opening date, or closing date is stated on the page.
• The page does not say whether the program is currently fully funded or waitlisted.

Notes

• The page is a general housing summary and does not provide program-specific underwriting, income, or property standards for the loans.
