CDBG Small Cities -- Housing Program
The Village of Winneconne has received a Community Development Block Grant to provide loans to improve the residential property occupied by qualifying low-to-moderate income (LMI) residents, rehabilitate landlord's rental units and assist LMI residents in purchasing a home. As the funds from the initial loans are repaid, the WCDA will administer a revolving loan fund.

Wisconsin Housing and Economic Development Authority (WHEDA)
WHEDA Home Improvement features below-market, fixed interest rates with no pre-payment penalty. With up to 15 years to repay the loan, you can fit your payment to your budget.

WHEDA HOME (Home Ownership Made Affordable) lets you become a home-owner sooner with a lower monthly house payment than other mortgage programs. That is because HOME features low down payments and below-market interest rates.
