Program details

How it works

Through the Major Home Improvement Program, NDHFA provides affordable mortgage loans to low- to moderate-income households. The loans can be used either to buy and rehabilitate a single-family home or to refinance and rehabilitate the borrower’s current single-family home.

What the money covers

The page says the loan can support purchase plus rehabilitation, or refinance plus rehabilitation, of a single-family home. It does not itemize eligible improvement categories or give a separate grant amount.

Amounts and matching

The page does not state a maximum loan amount or matching requirement. All NDHFA programs require a $500 out-of-pocket cash investment.

How to apply

The page directs borrowers to work through an NDHFA participating lender. No separate application form or deadline is listed on this page.

Timing and deadlines

No deadline is stated.

Other notes

The applicant must be the first resident of the home after completion of the qualified improvements.
