Washington County Homeowner Rehabilitation Program

How it works

A county project activity report says Washington County used HOME funds for a Homeowner Rehabilitation program and that, in FY 2023, it provided improvements for 20 homeowners. The same report places the program under affordable housing activity, alongside homebuyer assistance and access assistance.

What the money covers

The report does not provide a detailed work scope for the homeowner rehab program itself. A separate county notice for housing rehabilitation says county rehab work may include items such as roofs, gutters, doors, windows, walls, ceilings, porches, facades, sidewalks, parking areas, driveways, chimneys, foundations, landscaping, electrical systems, heating systems, HVAC, water and sewer lines, plumbing, flooring, fixtures, cabinets, appliances, safety and security devices, asbestos/radon/lead testing and mitigation, and ADA improvements. That notice is for the county’s housing rehab program generally, so this is an inference that those categories likely describe the rehabilitation work, but the report itself does not restate the full list.

Amounts and matching

• The report says more than $1 million in HOME funds were expended for Home Rehabilitation and Homebuyer Assistance Programs combined.
• It does not state a per-household amount.

How to apply
