Program details
How it works
Bergen County’s Home Improvement Program (HIP) helps eligible homeowners rehabilitate existing one- and two-family houses. The county describes the assistance as interest-free financing with no payments due until the home is sold or the title changes.
What the money covers
The county says HIP can help with a wide range of major home rehabilitation work, including:
- heating
- plumbing
- electrical
- roof, leaders, and gutters
- exterior siding
- windows and doors
- driveway, sidewalk, and steps
- and more
What homeowners should expect
The program is described as a resource to rehabilitate existing homes rather than a narrow repair grant. The county also notes that eligibility depends on income, family size, and the type of improvement.
