Home investment partnerships program

The County of Greenville received a formula grant award of $1,050,123.13 from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development under the Home Investment Partnerships Program (CFDA 14.239), effective September 16, 2025, through September 30, 2034. This funding supports the expansion of affordable housing supply for low- and very low-income households in Greenville, South Carolina, through a range of eligible housing activities.

Under this award, the County of Greenville administers HOME funds to support affordable housing initiatives, which may include rehabilitation of owner-occupied housing, homebuyer assistance programs, acquisition and construction of rental housing, and tenant-based rental assistance. As a formula grant recipient, the county is responsible for implementing these housing activities either directly or through sub-awards to developers, nonprofit organizations, and community partners. All HOME-funded projects must comply with federal income targeting requirements, maintain affordability compliance periods of five to twenty years depending on activity type, and adhere to 24 CFR Part 91 regulations, including submission of Consolidated Plans and annual action plans to HUD for review and approval.
