Homeowner & Rental Rehab
Housing Rehabilitation exists to provide private homeowners and landlords the resources to make improvements to their homes through a variety of community-based programs. Our goal is to help homeowners who meet income limits, and landlords renting to low-income tenants keep their properties safe, secure and well-maintained. Because we know that good homes make for better neighborhoods.
Stronger Communities Start Here.
HRA Rehab Programs:
Beginning July 1, 2020 the City in partnership with the Housing and Redevelopment Authority of Duluth (HRA) and U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), will launch two modified housing rehab loan programs. They are the Healthy Homes Homeowner Rehab Program and the Rental Rehab Program.
Single Family Rehab Program
The Single Family Rehab Program will provide zero interest, 15 year deferred loans up to $30,000 to qualified homeowners for single-family home repair projects. Eligible projects include health safety items, roof repair/replacement, window replacement, siding/envelope improvement and energy efficiency upgrades. To be eligible, an applicant’s income must not exceed 80% of the area median income. For more information : Click here

Healthy Homes Pilot Program
The Healthy Homes Pilot Program will provide a thirty year deferred loan up to $25,000 to qualified homeowners for single family home repair projects and owner occupied small multi-family homes of two to four units whose rents are affordable to low and moderate income households.
The goal of Housing Rehabilitation is to continually work to make our community better, one home at a time, and we want to help those that share our vision. Our dedicated staff will answer any questions you have and will help you through every step of the process.
