San Antonio Standard

SAN ANTONIO – In preparation for the reopening of the Home Rehabilitation Program, the City of San Antonio is hosting information sessions from Oct. 2-19 to help homeowners learn how to apply in advance of the application period from Oct. 23 to Nov. 20. 

The Home Rehabilitation Program provides funding through a forgivable loan to low- and moderate-income households to help with home rehabilitation to address health, safety and/or code issues. The program helps with:

• Major rehabilitation or reconstruction, which repairs two or more areas of a home’s system, such as the foundation, electrical, plumbing, heating and/or air conditioning, and structural issues.
• Minor rehabilitation, which addresses an isolated issue, such as siding, walk-in showers, plumbing, window replacement, water heater replacement and painting.
• Under 1 Roof, which provides roof shingle replacement with Shasta white shingles that improve a home’s energy efficiency.

Homeowners are invited to attend one of the nine, city-wide information sessions before the application opens to learn about the home rehab programs, understand eligibility requirements, and all documentation needed for the submission of an online application. The sessions are on the following dates:
