GO REPAIR! Grant Program
Helping Austin homeowners fix serious structural issues.
GO REPAIR! addresses inadequate housing conditions to ensure safe, accessible homes for Austin residents. Low-income families in need of help with essential repairs may qualify for grants of up to $20,000 to address structural issues in their homes.
The GO REPAIR! Grant is to help fix dangerous conditions, such as collapsing floors, decaying roofs, and faulty electrical and plumbing leaks.
Home modifications can ensure Austinites can get around their home safely. The grant also makes homes more accessible for homeowners with disabilities.
Austin nonprofits administer the grants and repairs. Eligible homeowners do not need to pay for any of the grant-approved repairs.
