Housing Grants for Low-Income Residents in New Jersey

New Jersey's local government has set aside financial assistance for residents with no or low-income.

The average home value in New Jersey is $357,000.00. The main initiative behind this policy is to assist residents financially while they look for jobs or improve their income.
