Housing Rehabilitation Assistance in Compton: A Lifeline for Homeowners

In an effort to support local residents in maintaining safe and habitable homes, the City of Compton is launching a Homeowner Housing Rehabilitation Program for 2025.



The “Housing Rehabilitation Program”  not only promotes community well-being but also empowers low- to moderate-income residents, including seniors, veterans, and disabled individuals, to improve their living conditions through financial assistance for critical home repairs and upgrades.



Application Period and Purpose


The applications will be open from July 14 to July 31, 2025, giving homeowners a limited yet crucial window to apply.


The program's core objective is to assist homeowners in maintaining a safe and healthy living environment. This initiative recognizes that many residents may face challenges affording necessary home repairs or improvements, and seeks to alleviate that burden through financial support and community resources.



What the Program Offers


The rehabilitation program offers a comprehensive range of services that homeowners can access:


  1. Home Repairs: This includes a wide scope of repairs such as roofing, plumbing, electrical systems, and structural issues. Essentially, the program addresses foundational aspects of home maintenance that are critical to occupant safety and comfort.


  2. Energy Efficiency Upgrades: To combat rising utility costs and promote sustainability, the program offers funding for improvements such as new windows, insulation, and modernized heating or cooling systems. These upgrades not only reduce bills but also contribute to environmental conservation.


  3. Accessibility Improvements: The program also makes provisions for residents who require home modifications due to physical limitations. Additions like ramps and grab bars are supported, reflecting a commitment to inclusivity and independent living for all community members.



Eligibility Criteria


To qualify, applicants must meet certain criteria:


  • Income: Households with low to moderate income are eligible for up to $30,000 in assistance.

  • Special Groups: Seniors, veterans, and disabled persons are eligible for up to $35,000 in assistance, acknowledging their unique needs and often limited financial means.

  • Residency: The property must be owner-occupied and located within the City of Compton.


These criteria ensure the program targets those most in need and aligns with the city’s broader goals of equitable urban development and housing stability.
