Housing agency invites homeowners to apply for help with home repairs

By Lightning Reports, Published: March 7, 2026

The Housing Assistance Corp. is inviting eligible homeowners in need of essential home repairs to apply for the agency's help.

Safe, decent housing is the foundation of a strong community; inadequate housing can exacerbate chronic health issues, create unsafe living conditions, and increase the risk of injury. These home repairs help residents remain safely in their homes, improve mental and physical health and preserve neighborhood stability, especially for seniors, people with disabilities and families facing financial hardship.

Homeowners who are struggling with home maintenance due to the age of the home, wear-and-tear, weather damage, or other challenges, Housing Assistance can help with these projects. The program is designed to support low- to moderate-income homeowners who might otherwise be unable to afford necessary repairs that affect health, safety and quality of life.

Safe and stable housing critically impacts health and overall well-being. Getting started now can help you complete essential repairs before they become costly emergencies. Applications are being accepted on a first-come, first-served basis.

Contact the Housing Assistance Corporation at 828-692-4744 or ericka@housing-assistance.com. Visit housing-assistance.com to learn more about the program.
