Insider tip

Apply through your city or county's housing department, not TDHCA directly. Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, and Austin all have separate programs with varying income limits and grant amounts.

How to apply

Apply directly on the official website. GrantLantern does not process applications — we link you directly to the source.
