South Carolina Approved for $138 million in Federal “Hardest Hit” Housing Funds

fc.jpg

Officials at the US Department of Treasury (Treasury) yesterday approved the proposal of the South Carolina State Housing Finance and Development Authority (SC State Housing) for administration and distribution of $138 million to help the state’s “hardest hit” homeowners. South Carolina joins the ranks of nine other economically distressed states trying to help homeowners facing the possibility of foreclosure due to circumstances beyond their control.

Though this approval is a major step toward making these funds available to struggling homeowners, SC State Housing must complete the development and implementation of policies and procedures for distributing the assistance. SC State Housing anticipates beginning to accept applications both online and by telephone by early October. Next steps include putting infrastructure in place to handle application intake, evaluation and closing.
 
SC State Housing staff have been working closely with Treasury since learning that the Palmetto State was one of the designees for the second round of the Housing Finance Agency Innovation Fund’s Hardest Hit Housing Markets (or “HFA Hardest Hit Fund”). 
 
In South Carolina this program will be known as the SC Homeownership and Employment Lending Program (SC HELP).
