The Renew NC Single-Family Housing Program is a state program launched with federal funding to repair, rebuild or replace eligible homes with remaining damage from Hurricane Helene.

To be eligible, you must have owned the home when Hurricane Helene made landfall on September 27, 2024, and the damaged property must have been your primary residence; you must still own the home, and you must provide all necessary documents to complete an eligibility review and award determination. Rental property owners may apply as well, but single-family homeowners will be prioritized.

Apply and find out more at

North Carolina homeowners impacted by Hurricane Helene can apply for disaster recovery assistance. Renew NC helps low-to-moderate income families rebuild and repair their homes.

When Hurricane Helene hit Fairview last September, massive oaks tore through Kelly and Jerry Owensby’s Fairview home, leaving it beyond repair. But with help from Scroggs Construction Services, they've rebuilt stronger than ever. This fall, their renewed home will be featured in the 44th Annual WNC Parade of Homes, hosted by the Builders Association of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
