We have been accepted as a builder in the Department of Veteran Affairs (VA) Home Loan Guaranty Program. Read below to see if you are eligible to receive one of the below offered grants.

Housing Grants for Disabled Veterans

VA provides grants to Servicemembers and Veterans with certain permanent and total service-connected disabilities to help purchase or construct an adapted home, or modify an existing home to accommodate a disability. Two grant programs exist: the Specially Adapted Housing (SAH) grant and the Special Housing Adaptation (SHA) grant.

Specially Adapted Housing (SAH) Grant

SAH grants help Veterans with certain service-connected disabilities live independently in a barrier-free environment. SAH grants can be used in one of the following ways:

Construct a specially adapted home on land to be acquired
Build a home on land already owned if it is suitable for specially adapted housing
Remodel an existing home if it can be made suitable for specially adapted housing
Apply the grant against the unpaid principal mortgage balance of an adapted home already acquired without the assistance of a VA grant

Special Housing Adaptation (SHA) Grant

SHA grants help Veterans with certain service-connected disabilities adapt or purchase a home to accommodate the disability. You can use SHA grants in one of the following ways:

Adapt an existing home the Veteran or a family member already owns in which the Veteran lives
Adapt a home the Veteran or family member intends to purchase in which the Veteran will live
Help a Veteran purchase a home already adapted in which the Veteran will live
