Emergency Repair Grant

How it works

The City of Tulsa Housing Office manages the Emergency Repair Grant as part of its housing rehabilitation programs. It is a grant, so it does not have to be repaid. The program is designed for emergency home repairs that address conditions posing an immediate threat to the health and safety of the occupants.

What the money covers

Eligible repairs include:

• Electrical
• Plumbing
• Security, including doors and windows
• Roofs
• Heating
• Service lines

The page says the repair must be an emergency repair and must address a condition that presents an immediate health and safety threat.

Amounts and matching

The official page does not state a dollar amount for the grant.

How to apply

Interested homeowners should email the Housing Office at housing@cityoftulsa.org. After the application is reviewed, an inspector visits the home to confirm that it has a qualifying repair. If approved, the repair work proceeds through bidding and construction.

Timing and deadlines

The page says there is no fixed cutoff date, but funding is limited and applications may be halted at any time until the next fiscal year.

Additional notes

The program is only available to homeowners in the Tulsa city limits. Homes in designated floodplain areas are not eligible.
