Senior Home Repair Program
The Village of Wellington is pleased to offer a Senior Home Repair Program to income eligible, senior (62 years and older) homeowners. This program will allow eligible seniors to receive up to $7,500 toward qualified improvements. Funding is limited to urgent repairs, accessibility improvements, energy efficiency improvements and health and safety issues. Outstanding code violations will be given priority.
Assistance is provided as a 5 year forgivable loan at zero percent interest. Twenty percent (20%) of the loan is forgiven each year on the anniversary of the loan. In the event the property is sold or rented during the 5 years following completion of the improvements, the balance of the Senior Home Repair loan becomes immediately due and payable.
In order to qualify for this program, your annual gross household income may not exceed the following:
1 person household $36,650 5 person household $56,500
2 person household $41,850 6 person household $60,700
3 person household $47,100 7 person household $64,900
4 person household $52,300 8 person household $69,050
