USDA Home Repair Grants: A Lifeline for Kentucky Homeowners

Owning a home comes with unexpected challenges. Whether it’s discovering mold behind the walls, cleaning up after a fire, repairing damage from a water leak, or addressing contamination from a former drug house, the cost of making your home safe can feel overwhelming.

Fortunately, many Kentucky homeowners may qualify for financial assistance through the USDA Section 504 Home Repair Program, which helps eligible homeowners make essential health and safety repairs.

At Phoenix Remediation & Restoration, we believe every family deserves a safe, healthy home. That’s why we want homeowners to know about programs that may help make necessary repairs more affordable.


What Is the USDA Section 504 Home Repair Program?

The USDA Section 504 Home Repair Program is designed to help very low-income homeowners living in eligible rural areas.

Depending on your situation, you may qualify for:

  • Grants of up to $10,000 (for qualifying homeowners age 62 or older)

  • Low-interest home repair loans

  • Funding to eliminate health and safety hazards

  • Repairs that make your home safer and more livable

This program exists to help homeowners remain safely in their homes instead of delaying critical repairs because of financial hardship.


Who May Qualify?

While eligibility is determined by the USDA, homeowners generally must:

  • Own and occupy the home as their primary residence

  • Live in an eligible rural area

  • Meet USDA income requirements

  • Be unable to obtain affordable credit elsewhere

To qualify for the grant portion, applicants generally must also:

  • Be at least 62 years old

  • Be unable to repay a repair loan


Repairs That May Qualify

Funding may be available for repairs that address health and safety concerns, including:

Every situation is different, and USDA determines what work is eligible.
