Fulton County Begins Accepting Pre-Applications from Homeowners July 1 for Housing Rehabilitation Assistance

Fulton County will begin accepting pre-applications from Fulton County homeowners for Housing Rehabilitation Assistance beginning July 1, 2014.  Pre-applications will be accepted  for Deferred Payment Loans (DPL) through July 31, 2014, by the Housing and Human Services Department’s  Housing Rehabilitation Program.  The program serves low and moderate-income homeowners.

The County is prepared to provide financial assistance to help bring substandard, single family, owner-occupied residential properties located in Fulton County into compliance with federal regulations and County code.  Properties located in the Cities of Atlanta, Roswell, Sandy Springs, and Johns Creek, are not eligible for assistance under this program.

Funds for the Housing Rehabilitation Program are made available each year by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
