The City of Orem will provide qualified homeowners grant and/or loan funding up to $15,000 (based upon available funding) to repair critical damage to homes or eliminate specific and immediate hazards to health, safety, and/or sanitation. Homeowners can also replace or repair windows, electrical, plumbing, fixtures, or roofs, paint exterior or interiors, do necessary remodeling, put in ADA improvements, and do additions (based on need). The program will be available to all homeowners (single-family, multi-family, and mobile homes) making less than 80 percent of the Area Median Income (based on HUD’s yearly MSA numbers) living in the City of Orem.
