Short window to apply for Housing Grants

By Housing Nonprofit

There is no doubt that availability of Housing Grants has been a stimulus for home ownership across all states. But for every person who is able to receive a grant to purchase a home, many more miss the deadline to apply or are denied for an incomplete application. Securing a housing grant requires both good timing and preparation. The administrators for these programs disburse grants without much advertisement that they are available in the first place and the windows to apply may be only a few weeks or less.

In Palm Beach County Florida for example where we track 60+ available housing grants, one online application portal opened on Wednesday, Dec. 27, 2023, at 8 a.m. and closed on Wednesday, Jan. 17, 2024, at 11:59 pm. The application remained open until it had accepted 100 applicants. Each grant was  worth up to $100,000 to put towards the purchase of a first home.

Filling out our Universal Housing Grants Application will check eligibility for all  programs using the criteria set forth by the grant administrators. For example, eligibility will consider the number of people in your home as well as the maximum income for the home and only return those grants that are a match.

Without a guide in the process many applicants fall short of actually receiving the grant. Filling out the Universal Housing Grants Application saves time, effort, and ensures you do not miss out on any available housing grants which you are otherwise eligible for.
