Fees
Owner match requirement of a minimum 10% of the cost of the project. As a component of the Federal grant programs owners can apply for 0% non-interest bearing loans to cover this requirement.

Service area
New Hampshire state
New Hampshire Housing administers a federal grant and a 0% interest, deferred payment State Loan program for the abatement of lead paint hazards from the state's pre 1978 single family homes and rental apartments where a child under the age of 6 or pregnant women resides and vacant units. Single family home owners and land lords can apply.
The State Loan program can also be used for licensed child care facilities built prior to 1978. Both programs are income based and the tenants must income qualify as well as owners of owner occupied units. The 2 funding sources can be combined to reduce up front out of pocket costs or owners match requirements.
