About Us

We are here to help!

The Wisconsin Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program, administered by the Wisconsin Department of Administration, Division of Energy, Housing, and Community Resources (DEHCR), provides grants to general purpose units of local government for housing programs which principally benefit low to moderate income (LMI) households. These funds are primarily used for rehabilitation of housing units and homebuyer assistance. CDBG dollars are flexible and responsive to local needs.

Types of Funding

    Renters can receive up to 50% of the down payment to help purchase their own home. Cannot exceed 10% of the purchase price.

  • Rental Units

    Low-interest loans that are amortized for up to 10 years are available for landlords who need to rehabilitate rental units.
