§ 50664 Local Housing Repair Loans

Key Takeaways

  • •This law lets local agencies borrow money to fix up old or broken-down houses.
  • •The loan amount can only cover the actual cost of fixing the house, no extra money.
  • •The house owner has to pay back the full loan amount, plus extra if they pay late.
  • •The loan itself doesn’t charge extra money (interest) unless the payment is late.

Example

A city wants to fix up an old house that’s falling apart.

The city can borrow money to repair the house, but the loan can only be used for the repair costs. The house owner has to pay back the full amount, and if they pay late, they’ll owe extra. The loan doesn’t charge extra money unless the payment is late.

§ 50664 Local Housing Repair Loans

Deferred-payment loans may be made to local agencies for repair of substandard dwellings through a master agreement and fund commitment. Such agreements shall limit the amount of deferred-payment rehabilitation loans to actual rehabilitation costs to the local agency, shall require that the full amount of rehabilitation costs be made a special assessment against the property involved, and shall require that the full amount collected, including any interest attributable to delinquency, be promptly repaid to the Housing Rehabilitation Loan Fund. However, loans made pursuant to this section shall not otherwise bear any interest. (Added by Stats. 1978, Ch. 884.)
