Homeowners
Housing assistance isn’t just about seeking a home – it can also mean making your existing home more livable. If you’re a homeowner who needs a little help with your property Housing Rehabilitation Programs can provide details on income-qualified assistance for both site-built homes and mobile homes.
- The City of Longmont is no longer administering this program for the City of Boulder.
- The City of Longmont Housing and Community Investment Division has undertaken a subrecipient procurement process to effectively administer the Housing Rehabilitation Program. As of November 7, 2024, the program will not be accepting any new applications. If you wish to be added to a waitlist and receive updates about the program, please email Alexis McCowan or call 303-774-4619.

Fair Housing laws promote equal access to homeownership and rental housing opportunities
Fair Housing laws are fundamental to the values of our community. By protecting against housing discrimination, fair housing makes Longmont a stronger community and a better place to live, work, and play.
Under federal law, it is illegal to discriminate against any person under the protected classes: race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status, and disability. Colorado State law adds the categories of marital status, creed, ancestry, and source of income.
Housing discrimination is illegal. Both state and federal laws prohibit discrimination in housing based on protected classes. Also, it is illegal for anyone to threaten, coerce, intimidate, or interfere with anyone exercising a fair housing right or assisting others who exercise that right. Visit the Fair Housing Information page for more information.
