Houding repairMANATEE COUNTY, FL (October 3, 2022) – Manatee County low- and very low-income homeowners can apply for financial help for housing rehabilitation and replacement assistance from Manatee County Community and Veterans Services Department through October 24, 2022.

Low- and very low-income Manatee County residents can submit entry forms through the Housing Rehabilitation/Replacement Program. The program provides 0% interest-deferred payment 30-year loans to make code-related repairs to single-family homes or replace dilapidated single family housing structures. Through this program, housing conditions can be corrected and modified to improve the health, safety and welfare for the people who live there.

Program entry forms are available on the Rehabilitation/Replacement Program Webpage. Those who need help completing and submitting an online entry form can call (941) 749-3029.

On October 31, 2022, County staff will use a lottery-style drawing to determine which applications to review first. Funding will be awarded to households who meet the eligibility requirements until all funds have been committed.

To be eligible, households must be located in unincorporated Manatee County or City of Palmetto and be within the program standards for very low/low income and property value. Read eligibility requirements online.
