Otsego County Vacant Rental Program: Grants Available for Property Owners

This program provides grants of up to $50,000 or $75,000 per unit (or up to $250,000 or $375,000 per property) to fund the rehabilitation of vacant spaces/units in Otsego County properties into habitable rental units. In return, property owners will be required for ten years to rent only to households below a certain income limit, charge rent within an annual limit, offer 12-month leases, and maintain the units in good condition. Our program is funded by New York State Homes and Community Renewal’s New York State Vacant Rental Program.

ORHA will be accepting applications for the program through April 27, 2026, for the initial round of project selection. This is a competitive application process, and applications will be scored on a number of criteria.

Proposed projects and the property owners themselves must meet certain eligibility requirements to be considered for an award. Eligible projects would rehabilitate or repair vacant spaces in Otsego County that either are already residential units or could be converted into residential units by the project. Mobile and manufactured homes are not eligible, and neither is the construction of new accessory dwelling units, or ADUs. All eligibility requirements and application scoring criteria are available on the ORHA website.

The Otsego County Vacant Rental Program (VRP) is a local grant program funded by the New York State Homes and Community Renewal’s New York Vacant Rental Program, which funds the rehabilitation of vacant properties for use as affordable long-term rental units for low- and moderate-income households...
