LABELLE, FL. -- Hendry county's State Housing Initiatives Partnership (SHIP) provides funding yearly for owner occupied housing rehabilitation, and seeks licensed building contractors to remodel up to a dozen homes this year.
The maximum amount available for remodeling each home to building code standards is $50,000.
Rehabilitation may include electrical, structural, doors, windows, etc to alleviate code violations, health and safety issues, and any disability access issues in the home.
Qualified contractors will bid for each home remodel at a future date after performing a walk through of each home. Bids will be reviewed and recommendations made based on the lowest responsible bid. The construction period is from 60 to 120 days.
To obtain more information about getting on the contractor list, contact Guardian Community Resource Management Inc. at 888-482-7393 or Hendry County Housing Director Sabrina Gadson at 863-675-5297
