Colorado Springs homeowners, check this out!

I just came across a very informative blog about free money, and cheap money.  The blog detailed a local Colorado Springs program to Man looking out window of empty room c uid 1178742help residents install energy efficient items in their houses.  As usual when I come across an article like this, I like to go to the original source about the program so I can give even more information to my readers.

The City of Colorado Springs has an entire section of their web site dedicated to Housing Rehabilitation.  I was impressed with the range of programs offered including Lights and Locks for Seniors, Emergency Repair, Energy Environment Economy Program, and Owner Occupant Rehab.

The Owner Occupant Rehab program is targeted towards low income home owners in Colorado Springs and can be used to improvement the energy efficiency of a house; including replacing windows, upgrading a furnace, adding insulation, upgrading plumbing.    They have some criteria to qualify including you must live in the home and it must be valued less than $247,000.    If you meet the income guidelines, your interest rate is 3%.  Yes I did type it right, only 3%.

The web site includes the contact name at the City to get more information about all of the program.
