Section 5(h) Homeownership Program
The Grand Rapids Housing Commission's Section 5(h) Homeownership Program operates in conjunction with our "Scattered Sites" Public Housing program. Through the two programs, the GRHC has renovated or built a limited number of single-family homes, leasing these to qualified low-income families. Leaseholders have the option to purchase the property they occupy.
To date, the GRHC has acquired 150 units of Scattered Sites housing and 126 leaseholders have exercised their option to purchase their home.
