Increase the value of your home and improve the appearance of your neighborhood with help from the Single-Family Rehabilitation Loan Program. Loans are available to Mount Prospect residents who own a single-family home. This program provides a maximum of $25,000. Single-Family Rehabilitation Loans are interest free, require no monthly payments and are paid back upon change of title or sale of the home.

Loans can be used to:

  • Correct code violations
  • Replace old furnaces and water heaters
  • Improve storm managements systems
  • Increase energy efficiency
  • Make improvements for disabled persons.

Single-Family Rehabilitation Loans are available to Mount Prospect residents who meet the following criteria:

1. The applicant must own and occupy a single-family detached home.
2. The applicant must have owned the home for one year prior to applying.
3. The property’s debt-to-value ratio, including this loan, cannot be greater than 80%.
4. The gross annual income of the household must not exceed HUD’s low-income limits.

These limitations are outlined below:
