Attention homeowners!
I want to remind you of a program that makes up to $25,000 available for help with mortgages, property taxes, utilities, and more. This February, the Michigan State Housing and Development Agency (MSHDA) launched the Michigan Homeowners Assistance Fund (MIHAF). This program helps Michiganders who experienced housing-related hardship due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Funding is still available, but it is limited. That’s why I’m reaching out today to make sure you or your loved ones apply if eligible.
To be eligible, homeowners must:
• Have household incomes less than 150% of Area Median Income (AMI) – for example, less than $120,000 for a family of four in Kent, Macomb, and Wayne counties
• Own and occupy the property as their primary residence
• Have and explain a financial hardship directly related to COVID-19 on or after January 21, 2020
The MIHAF program can provide up to $25,000 to help with:
• Mortgage/housing expenses and escrow shortages
• Utilities, gas, electric, water, sewer
• Internet broadband services
• Land contracts, mobile home consumer loans, park lot fees
• Property taxes
• Condominium/homeowner’s association fees
• Homeowner’s property insurance, hazard, flood, or mortgage insurance
I am committed to getting things done that make a difference in people’s lives and ensure families have a safe, affordable place to live. I encourage every eligible homeowner looking for assistance to apply for this program. If you or a loved one may be eligible, please apply for this assistance by either visiting Mi.Gov/MIHAF, clicking the button above, or by calling 844-756-4423.
Sincerely,
Gretchen Whitmer
Governor of Michigan
