Have you heard of these home-improvement grants?
Funds available for owners with low income, vets
Whether you want to update a kitchen or bathroom with new plumbing and appliances or you need to renovate a home to accommodate a family member who uses a wheelchair, a home improvement project is a great way to make a house more comfortable and increase its value. Paying for these projects, however, can be difficult.
Some lenders offer home improvement loans for major renovations, but the government also has programs to help eligible homeowners who have no other way to secure the money they need to do the work.
Here are three grants offered by the federal government for homeowners and veterans who need to make their homes safer or renovate them to accommodate a person with disabilities.
