It’s time for VHFA’s annual mitten drive. This year we are collecting mittens for Burlington’s Women Helping Battered Women and we need your help.  Donations of new mittens and gloves to our office on the corner of King and St. Paul Streets in Burlington are heartily welcome any time before Monday, December 16. Waterproof gloves and mittens are especially appreciated.

In light of expanded income and purchase price limits that went into effect last week  for VHFA's home mortgage programs, Vermont Public Radio (VPR) took a closer look at VHFA's role in the single-family home lending market.     

The Housing Acquisition & Rehabilitation Program (HARP), administered by VHFA, is helping income-qualified home buyers participate in Vermont’s current favorable home buying market, according to this week’s Times Argus*. 

More Vermonters will be able to purchase homes using VHFA's mortgage programs thanks to newly increased income and purchase price limits put in place on November 1^st, 2013.
