City of Boston HomeWorks Grant Program Workshop
The City of Boston is holding a workshop on Thursday, May 29 from 6-8pm at the East Boston Harborside Community Center. More on HomeWorks:HomeWorks is a program sponsored by the City of Boston Department of Neighborhood Development (DND) that helps Boston homeowners make affordable home improvements. The goal of the program is to assist homeowners with their home improvement projects and provide them with financial and technical assistance.
HomeWorks offers conditional grants for 1/3 of the total cost of certain home improvements, up to a maximum of $4,000 or $5,000 if you paint the exterior of your house. To be eligible for this program, you must be an owner-occupant of a one to four family house, or condominium unit. Your income cannot exceed $63,000 if your household consists of one person, or $90,850 for households of two or more.
HomeWorks conditional grants can be used for just about any home improvement, i.e., update your kitchen or bath, install new windows, replace old boilers, fix rickety porches, just to name a few. To receive the grant, you must obtain the matching funds that are needed to complete your project. These funds can come from a variety of sources: your savings, a gift from your family, a loan from either a bank or a community/neighborhood development corporation.
