Your application paperwork
The Iowa Finance Authority runs the federal HOME program in Iowa, which funds local owner-occupied housing rehabilitation for income-qualified homeowners. There is no single statewide form; the help (usually a grant or forgivable loan) is delivered by a local recipient such as a city, county, or nonprofit. You apply through the local HOME-funded program serving your area.
Steps to apply
- Confirm you own and occupy the home and your household income is low (HOME serves low-income households).
- On the Iowa Finance Authority HOME page, find the local recipient (city, county, or nonprofit) running owner-occupied rehab in your area.
- Contact that local program and complete its application with your income, ownership, and the needed repairs.
- The local program inspects the home and arranges the approved rehabilitation work.
Documents you will likely need
- Proof you own and occupy the home as your principal residence.
- Proof of household income.
- A description of the repairs needed, plus contractor estimates if the local program asks.
- A government-issued photo ID.
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.
