Community Development Block Grant Funds

by carolgroben
August 3rd, 2009

We wanted to let you know of an opportunity made
available through the  Planning & Development Office of Buncombe County
(828) 250-4830

Are You Eligible for Community Development Block Grant
Funds?

All low income Buncombe County homeowners in need of repairs are
encouraged to apply for assistance through the CDBG SSH Grant. Successful
applicants may be eligible for rehabilitation or emergency repair of their
primary residence. The cost of the repair or rehabilitation would be secured as
a forgivable loan in a promissory note and deed of trust prepared and executed
by Buncombe County. Homeowners with questions are encouraged to contact the
Buncombe County Planning Department at 250-4830, or our contracted agency
Mountain Housing Opportunities at 254-4030.

Download an Application at
Buncombe county.org or try the following link

Buncombe County accepts applications on an annual basis in December for
eligible projects within Buncombe County. Funding is available for single family
home construction and down payment assistance.

Also, the County will now
rebate 1/2 the permit fees on homes that are built within Buncombe County that
meet state building code and sell for $155,000 or less.
This funding will be
available throughout the year. For more information about Buncombe County’s
Affordable Housing Programs contact Donna Cottrell below.
