In today's down economy, grant for home improvement provides financial relief for very needy low-income homeowners in need of home repair and improvement.

Yes, it is free. Unlike a loan, there is absolutely no liability for repayment as long as it is used for the purpose agreed upon grant application.

No credit check, no collateral of any kind. Your credit score doesn't really matter here.

Grant for home improvement is meant to help the underprivileged in need of home repair and improvement. Most of these grants are disbursed to low income families who do not qualify for a normal home improvement loan.

Usually only the neediest of all will be eligible for free grant, based on selective assessment of their needs and urgency.

For instance, a disabled on a wheel chair could request for free grant to build a front-door ramp for better accessibility or to repair a leaked gas pipe that could pose a hazard.

Eligibility requirements may vary from state to state so you need to exercise due diligent before you make any request. A home inspection may also be carried out as part of application process to determine whether special priorities should be given.

It's also a good idea to check with your local housing authority if such free grants are available in your community.

Here's the fact, people for all walks of life do receive free grants so take advantage of what the government has put aside for your community.
