Your application paperwork
The Texas General Land Office (GLO) uses federal CDBG-DR grant money to repair, rebuild, or reimburse damage to a homeowner's primary residence in eligible disaster-declared counties. Eligible homeowners apply online through the GLO portal, are reviewed first-come first-served, and the grant pays for the work or reimburses out-of-pocket repairs (no repayment).
Steps to apply
- Confirm your home is your primary residence in one of the eligible disaster-declared counties (Houston and Harris County are excluded) and that your disaster damage meets the program minimum (at least $8,000 for the Homeowner Assistance Program).
- Go to the GLO apply page and choose ONE program: the Homeowner Assistance Program (repair or rebuild) or the Homeowner Reimbursement Program (reimbursement for out-of-pocket repairs already done). You may apply to only one.
- Create an account in the GLO online application portal and complete your application.
- Upload every item on the GLO Document Checklist (ownership, primary residence, disaster damage, insurance, taxes and child support, identity).
- Submit the application and respond to any GLO follow-up requests. Call 1-844-893-8937 or email cdr@recovery.texas.gov for help.
Documents you will likely need
- Government-issued photo ID and proof of legal status and identity (Declaration and Consent to Verification of Legal Status and Identity)
- Proof of ownership of the home (deed or Affidavit of Ownership)
- Proof the home is your primary residence (Affidavit of Primary Residence)
- Proof of disaster damage meeting the program minimum (at least $8,000 for the Homeowner Assistance Program)
- Homeowner insurance information and any FEMA or insurance payout records
- Proof of zero balance owed on property taxes and child support, plus current mortgage information (or Lender Consent to Applicant Home Repair)
Requirements vary by program and locality. Confirm the exact rules and application route with the administrator. We can help you prepare your paperwork, but you submit it yourself.
