HOMEOWNERS LANDLORDS
Financial assistance is available to modify the homes of persons with disabilities and frail elders.
To encourage and support independent living, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts makes loans to homeowners, often at 0%
interest, and low interest loans to landlords. These loans finance dwelling modifications and the installation of certain types of
equipment to help ensure that frail elders and persons of all ages with disabilities are able to remain in their homes. This is not a
housing rehabilitation or septic repair program.
The Pioneer Valley Planning Commission, (PVPC), is the “provider agency” for most communities in Hampden,
Hampshire, Franklin and Berkshire Counties. For properties in Agawam, Chicopee, Holyoke, Northampton, Springfield,
West Springfield, and Westfield, contact Marta Santiago at HAP, 413 233-1615.
