Housing Rehab Grants: Essential Single Family Rehab (ESFR), Urgent Repair Program (URP), and Neighborhood Revitalization (NR)

How it works

Gaston County’s Housing Rehabilitation Department (HRD) says it works with three home rehab grant programs: the Essential Single Family Rehab (ESFR) grant, the Urgent Repair Program (URP) grant, and the Neighborhood Revitalization (NR) grant. The HRD team manages construction, bidding, compliance, and audits for these programs.

What the money covers

The page does not provide a project list, repair categories, or any dollar cap for these grants. It does state that the programs are funded by several sources: the North Carolina Housing Finance Agency (NCFHA) via the North Carolina Housing Trust Fund, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Federal Home Investment Partnership Program, and the North Carolina Department of Commerce (NCDOC).

Who the program is for

The county describes the grants as being for elderly households, disabled households, military veterans, and single-parent households.

How to apply

The page includes staff contact information for the Housing Rehabilitation Department, but it does not show a public application form, step-by-step application instructions, or an online submission link.

Timing and deadlines

No opening date, closing date, funding cycle, or deadline is posted on the main program page.
