This program provides supportive housing in the form of a backyard Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) or converted garage unit constructed and maintained free of charge with support services to the tenants and the homeowner as well as up to $1,000 monthly guaranteed rental income to the property owner for a maximum of 15 years. Upon completion of the BHI program, the property owner will have full control and ownership of the ADU. By filling out this online interest form, the homeowner is not obligated to participate in BHI as this is not a formal commitment. The form will be used to obtain state grant money for the ADU construction phase. For additional information, please call South El Monte City Hall at 626-579-6540, ext. 3272. Less…
