Funding will provide up to $100,000 to assist income-eligible applicants with acquiring their first home — including acquisition, acquisition/rehabilitation, new construction, down payment and closing costs —that will be used as their principal place of residence.
The online application portal will open on Oct. 10 at 8 a.m. and close on Oct. 31 at 11:59 p.m. (or until 50 applications have been submitted).

Eligible applicants can apply by visiting the Department of Housing and Economic Development website. On the site, residents can also access additional program information and required documents needed to apply.
