The financial assistance will be in the form of a deferred loan.  The amount of the deferred loan will vary on a case-by-case basis.  The deferred loans are secured with a Repayment Agreement. If the property is sold, title is transferred or is no longer the primary residence of the participant:

  • Within the first 6 yrs., the full amount must be repaid to the HRA
  • The amount of repayment is reduced 20% for each year until the end of the 10th year.
  • At the end of the 10th year, the loan is forgiven and becomes a grant.
