The Bear Den can assist with all these Services and more!
How it works:
You get two quotes (estimates) from different contractors, take some photos, and submit them with your application form. Easy!
Homeowners pay at least 25% of the cost of the project, rental property owners pay at least 50%, and low income homeowners pay at least 10% (see Step 4 for income guidelines)
SNA pays the rest, up to $3,500. If you go over that amount, you’ll also be responsible for covering the remainder.
SNA provides reimbursement after you have fully paid for your project — if this affects your ability to access the program, please let us know.
Example 1
Â
The total cost of your quote is $5,800
SNA pays the maximum incentive of $3,500
You pay the remaining $2,300 (25% plus any amount over the maximum incentive)
Example 2
Â
The total cost of your quote is $1,500
You pay 25% of $1,500, which is $375
SNA pays the remaining amount of $1,125
