    December 12, 2024 update: CCEDA has reached the maximum alotted applicants for the grant other entities may still have allotments available. calhfa is limiting every entity to 275 awardees so the 600+ grants can ot be awarded completely to the two entities that processed the vast majority of awardees last year

    • @HOMEPLEXadu
      @HOMEPLEXadu Рік тому +5

      CalHFA has taken the position now that if they get duplicate reservations they will cancel both. So, you need to decide who you wish to apply with and apply only once. If you have already applied or were already reserved with one and which to switch, you must first cancel before applying with the new ADU Grant participant. So in this case you will need to cancel with HPP before applying for a reservation with CCEDA.

    Question for everyone. When I applied for the ADU grant last year, I thought what was said was that even if you applied for the grant and then finished the project before being awarded the money you could still get the grant money once you receive the actual grant award. And now I'm being told that I have to have an active adu project to be awarded. I did have an active project when I originally applied but my adu has been completed since May 2023.

      You can look up last years eligibility requirements but we don’t know this years. They usually vary by county and household size.
