DR24 Single-Family Home Repair Program - launching August 2026
Coming Soon: August 2026

DR24 Single-Family Home Repair Program

A new recovery resource is coming to Houston. The City of Houston Housing and Community Development Department will launch the DR24 Single-Family Home Repair Program to help eligible homeowners repair or rebuild primary residences damaged by the May 2024 Derecho or Hurricane Beryl.

Assistance may include up to $100,000 for home repairs or up to $300,000 for full reconstruction.

While initial priority will be given to seniors, persons with disabilities, and disabled veterans, all impacted residents with household incomes at or below 80% of the Area Median Income (AMI) are encouraged to apply.

Be sure to sign up for HCD News Alerts to receive full program details, eligibility information, and updates when the program officially launches.
