Are you a survivor of the 2023 Maui wildfires looking to buy your first home or find permanent housing?
The Hoʻokumu Hou First-Time Homebuyer Opportunity Program is here to help you secure and afford a home in Maui County with up to $600,000 in assistance for eligible residents.
This program supports wildfire survivors who:
- Do not currently own a home and have not owned one in the past three years
- Have a household income at or below 120% of the area median income (AMI)
- Want to purchase a single-family home, townhouse, or condo in Maui County (excluding properties in flood zones)
- Are committed to making the home their primary residence
Assistance can help cover:
- Down payment and closing costs
- Mortgage rate discounts (discount points)
- Principal buy-downs to lower monthly payments
- Other approved home-buying expenses
Once approved, you can work with a licensed real estate agent to find your new home with confidence. If you are interested, a case manager will guide you through eligibility verification, document collection, and home purchase steps.
