| Purpose |
The Emergency Repair Program (ERP) provides financial assistance to income eligible homeowners to make emergency repairs to their homes that are necessary to ensure the occupant's continued safety.
Generally speaking, repairs covered by ERP are intended to ensure that the residence is fit for continued safe occupancy, not to restore the house to minimum property standards. Examples of repairs covered include:
An inoperable furnace
A leaky roof
Hazardous structural conditions
Unsafe electrical & plumbing conditions
|

As a homeowner, you may be eligible for assistance under ERP, if you meet the following conditions:
Your household income does not exceed 60% of the area median income.
You have not filed for bankruptcy or defaulted on a mortgage in the preceding three years.
