GLOUCESTER CITY HOUSING REHABILITATION PROGRAMS

For Owner Occupied Homes in Gloucester City

REGIONAL CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT (RCA) and Emergency Loans
 
Program Overview:

      In an attempt to enhance the City’s housing stock, Gloucester City proudly offers two rewarding programs

          for owner occupied homes.

      Since 1979, Gloucester City has offered various programs to address housing rehabilitation needs of   

          eligible resident in the City.

      These loans are at 0% interest and require no monthly payments (non-amortizing). The homeowner must

          pay the City back when they no longer own and occupy the property. At that time, a check is made out   

          to the City for the full amount which goes back into the Revolving Loan Fund (RLF) to help future 

          homeowners rehabilitate their residence.

      Through these programs, Gloucester City has loaned approximately $4million in construction costs to over

          400 Gloucester City owner occupied homeowners to rehabilitate and improve the existing housing stock.  

          Monies are forwarded to Gloucester City in various increments annually. Each loan, along with  

          administrative costs, equals $20,000 a unit. These funds are then loaned out to homeowners who own

          and occupy their residences in the City of Gloucester.
