Last week, we celebrated a huge milestone: 600 Philadelphia homes have been repaired through Restore, Repair, Renew (RRR) since the program’s inception in 2019! Clarifi is proud to have helped homeowners access more than $18 MILLION in RRR's low-interest fixed rate loans. Here are five reasons why the RRR loan works for low-to-moderate income homeowners in Philadelphia: ⬇️ It's a low-interest (3%!) fixed rate loan, ↔️ ranging from $2,500 up to $50,000, 🕙 with a 10-year payback period, 🏡 for residents with a household income of up to 120% of the area median, 💳 and with a credit score of 580 or more Through RRR, 600 Philadelphia families ensured their homes are safe, warm, and dry for years to come. But 600 is just the beginning. Learn more about how we're preserving homes—and wealth—for years to come at the link below. Interested in applying? Call us at 215-866-5200. (fb)

What would you do if the rowhouse right next to yours collapsed? We were interviewed by the Philadelphia Inquirer for their recent story about the dangers of vacant rowhouses in the City: Cracked foundations, leaky roofs, and mold and just a few of the risks associated with living next to an abandoned property. Jill Roberts, Clarifi's Vice President of Advocacy, told the Inquirer, “It is about having the capacity and the knowledge to say, ‘There’s a vacant house next to me that is going to destroy my house. What do I do? How do I protect myself?’” That's where programs like Restore, Repair, Renew (RRR) come in: Through this City of Philadelphia program, Clarifi helps Philadelphia homeowners access low-interest fixed-rate loans so they can address critical repairs now to avoid irreversible damage in the long run. Not only that: Home maintenance retains the wealth and safety of the family home. RRR is for homeowners who make up to 120% of the area median income (that's $114,650 for a Philadelphia family of two, and $143,300 for a family of four).
