Age in Place New England
Age in Place New England is owned by Dan Maybruck and Mark Buell. As a seasoned contractor working with people from all aspects of life, Mark realized there had to be a better way to serve homeowners who need to modify their homes in order to stay there longer, be safe, and in doing so enable them to be comfortable in their own home. Home Modification Loan Program is a state loan program that could help you or a loved one live more independently at home. The program provides loans to make modifications to the primary, permanent residence of elders, adults with disabilities, and families with children with disabilities. The modification to be made to residence must be necessary to allow the beneficiary to remain in the home and must relate to their ability function on a daily basis. Based on income guidelines, you may qualify for a loan of $1,000 up to $30,000, which is secured by a promissory note and mortgage lien. There are two loan options. If you qualify for a 0 percent loan, you do not make any monthly payments and no interest accrues. Repayment is required when the property is sold or the title is transferred. A representative of Age in Place New England, a home improvement company specializing in modification of homes, will be on hand at 11 a.m. Wednesday, Feb. 19, through lunch for anyone who would like to learn more about the Home Modification Loan Program and the services their company could provide to you.
