The Paint and Shuttering Program provides assistance to homeowners of single-family detached homes located in Miami-Dade County with having the exterior of their home painting and/or Accordion Hurricane Shutters installed.
If approved Miami-Dade County will place a lien on the home for 5 years, if the applicant is receiving only one service (painting or shuttering) and 10 years if the applicant is receiving both services (painting and shuttering). The lien depreciates at 20% if the forgivable loan is attained for five (5) years, and 10% if the forgivable loan is attained for ten (10) years.
Participation in the program is subject to the availability of funds, and is subject to change without notice. Loans will be provided based on a first come, first served basis.
