$25,000 for Property Rehabilitation

   The Greene County Department of Development has available for income eligible households, up to $25,000 for the rehabilitation of owner-occupied property anyplace in Greene County outside the city limits of Xenia and Fairborn.

   These funds will be in the form of a five year deferred loan at zero percent (0%) interest.  During the five year deferment period, the loan will be forgiven at 10% each year.  At the end of the fifth year, the loan will be set up on a ten-year repayment plan with the interest rate still at zero percent (0%).  The rehabilitation work that is done will be based on bringing the property to the state of Ohio Residential Rehabilitation Standards (RRS), and then satisfying the homeowner's "wish list" for the property.
