CFPB Shares Info on Homeowners Assistance Fund

The CFPB has posted a blog article about the Homeowners Assistance Fund, which was established by the American Rescue Plan Act to help homeowners financially impacted by COVID-19 with housing-related costs. This federal assistance program provides money to states, Tribes, territories, and the District of Columbia and can provide financial assistance for mortgage payments (including past due payments) and, depending on the program, may also be used for homeowners insurance, utility bills, property taxes, homeowners association fees, certain home repairs, and other specified housing costs.
