Manufactured Home Improvement and Repair Program
Applications are still open for MHIR Infill Awards and MHIR Foundation Awards.
Manufactured Homes* are an important source of affordable housing for over 7,000 households in Vermont. Many mobile home parks and residents have been adversely impacted by the COVID pandemic. Through 3 distinct program areas, MHIR offers assistance to income-eligible mobile home parks and current and prospective mobile home owners.
*Note that under Vermont law, the terms mobile home and manufactured home are used interchangeably. For this program, we will use the term manufactured home.
