The Rental Rehabilitation program allows landlords to receive up to $24,999 per unit for repairs. Supplemental funds will be available for the following (when applicable): lead hazard reduction, project delivery costs and temporary relocation. Total cost including supplemental assistance cannot exceed $37,500 per unit. Assistance will be in the form of a five-year forgivable loan (non-receding), forgiven in full at the end of the five-year compliance period. Assistance is separated into Small Projects (seven and fewer units) and Large Projects (eight or more units). A project is defined as a site or sites together with any building or buildings (including manufactured structures that are taxed as real property) located on a site or sites that are under common ownership, management and financing. For example, a person who owns two disaster-impacted duplexes and one disaster-impacted triplex can repair all three structures.
