Description

Offers several programs to assist with housing needs.

Emergency Assistance Program: Intended to address emergency situations such as utility service interruption (plumbing, heating, electrical) and the repair of specific house systems that are in poor or dangerous condition (roof, chimney). Conditions noted with each request for emergency assistance will be verified by a representative of the Office of Strategic Planning. Property must be well maintained and structurally sound.

50/50 Program: Offers a conditional grant for low-income first-time home buyers who are purchasing an existing one or two bedroom home in need of rehabilitation in the City of Buffalo. Grant is to assist in the rehabilitation of the home being purchased, amounting to one half of the rehabilitation cost up to a maximum of $25,000. City funds are used to match private financing for renovations to bring the property into compliance with local standards and lead-based paint hazard reduction requirements.

Weatherization Program: Offers funds, up to $5,000 per structure, to assist homeowners in the City of Buffalo to make their homes more energy efficient and protected from the elements. Eligible expenses through this program include weather-stripping and caulking of doors and windows; cleaning, testing, and repairs of heating systems; adding insulation to walls and ceilings; and minor repairs as needed. Program is available city-wide to income-eligible owner occupants who meet program application guidelines.

Down Payment & Closing Cost Assistance Program: Provides financial assistance to low and moderate income first-time homebuyers for closing costs related to the purchase of their first home. Funds are provided as an interest-free conditional grant/loan with a five-year term that is secured by a second mortgage on the property.

Home Repair Program (currently unavailable until further notice): Offers housing repairs such as replacing windows, doors, furnaces, and hot water tanks. Program is available to income-eligible owner occupants who meet program application guidelines. Targets 20 owner-occupied homes for critical home repairs in the 14214, 14215, and 14216 zip codes of the City of Buffalo.
