Hall County accepting applications for affordable housing programs

By AccessWDUN staff

Hall County's Grants Division is now accepting applications for the Neighborhood Stabilization Program, which makes affordable housing available for purchase for eligible low-to moderate-income homebuyers. 

The County uses NSP funds to purchase vacant foreclosed homes in the county, make necessary repairs on the homes, and resells them to income-eligible homebuyers. The program does not provide foreclosure prevention assistance.

*Eligibility Requirements: 

In order to qualify for this program, applicants must meet the following criteria:

Must earn below 120% of Area Median

Must not own or will not own residential property at the time of closing

Qualify for a 30-year fixed mortgage

Complete an 8 hour HUD-approved homebuyer's course

Meanwhile, applications are also being accepted for the County's CHIP Rehabilitation Grant.  The grant funds rehabilitation projects for homeowners who are 62 years of age and older, have an annual income below 50 percent of the median income as outlined by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, and meet other requirements.
