AFFORDABLE HOUSING PROGRAM (AHP)
HOMEOWNERSHIP COMPONENT
The Federal and Provincial governments have provided
funding to the County of Huron to make homeownership
affordable for low and moderate-income households that are
currently renting and would like to purchase their own home.
Eligible households include new and resale homes that are
detached, semi-detached, condominiums and stacked homes.
The assistance will be in the form of a forgivable loan of 5%
of the cost of an eligible home to a maximum of $8,500.00.
Maximum purchase price is $174,500.00 and household
income must not exceed $52,600.00.
In order to plan information sessions for this program, the
County of Huron is asking for expressions of interest from
households that would participate in the sessions.
Please contact Lisa Hayter at Huron County Housing
Services at (519) 482-8505 to express your interest in
attending.
