Offered through Minnesota Housing, the RLP/ELP programs are designed to assist low-income homeowners with home improvements. These programs provide deferred loan financing to income-eligible homeowners to address health and safety concerns in their homes. A lien is placed on the property, and the loan is forgiven over time.  Loan program income limits are based on HUD median family income estimates.
