Maine Mortgage Help

Info for Home Owners

The Maine State Housing Authority works to place Maine's low and middle income populations into affordable, lasting housing. By working with banks and other qualified lenders, along with public services grants and loans, the MSHA can work out arrangements that benefit all parties. In doing so, the Maine State Housing Authority can get the most out of the available resources while benefiting the population at large, as well as selling mortgage bonds for living assistance. Every year Maine Housing dispersese millions of dollars and places thousands of families and individuals into affordable living situations.
