The purpose of the Department of Housing and Urban Development is two fold. It provides rent vouchers to recipients who meet the income guidlines to put towards rent for housing programs and projects that are a part of H.U.D as long as the premises are habitable. A common epidemic with current financial issues in H.U.D. and its sponsors has left many persons living in inhospitable areas against common decensy and human morality. Courts in local communities have disregarded poor tenants as having rights and have upheld many evictions exhaserbating the homeless issue in many communities. If you plan on getting low income housing please read the follow up Article on Housing Greivance Procedures and Law.
Another Program that HUD has for recipients is a Home loan for low income borrowers so that they to might afford a home. This Loan usually reduces the interest rate of the loan and drastically lowers costs at time of purchase. The program aims at getting lower income persons to buy and invest in fix-me-up homes. The labor that the low income persons put into and repairing the home will increase the value of the home which HUD owns until fullfilment of contractual obligations and also the communities value in which the home is located. When Buying a HUD home buyers should be aware of taxes and assesments by local governements. Any code requirements by the state as well as local governments. Always buy future sighted so that 5 years down the road after inflation and all you can still afford payments and bills.
