Housing grants for disabled veterans

If you are a veteran or service member with a service-connected disability, you may qualify for a housing grant from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. If you qualify, you can receive funding to build a new home or modify your existing home to meet your needs. The application process is cumbersome, and many veterans don’t know where to begin. That is where we come in.

Disability housing grants for veterans

There are three types of housing grants for veterans and service members with a service-connected disability, each with its own eligibility requirements.

  1. Grant 1

    Specially Adapted Housing (SAH)

    Up to $109,986

    FY 2023 maximum

    To buy, build or modify your permanent home: a home you plan to live in for a long time. You must own, or will own, the home and have a qualifying service-connected disability, such as:

    • The loss, or loss of use, of more than one limb
    • The loss, or loss of use, of a lower leg along with the lasting effects of a natural disease or injury
    • Blindness in both eyes (20/200 visual acuity or less)
    • Certain severe burns
    • The loss, or loss of use, of one lower extremity (foot or leg) after September 11, 2001, so that you can’t balance or walk without braces, crutches, canes or a wheelchair*

    *Congress limits grants based on the loss of one extremity after September 11, 2001, to 120 veterans and service members each fiscal year (October 1 to September 30). If you qualify but the limit has been reached, you may be able to receive the grant in a future year.

  2. Grant 2

    Special Home Adaptation (SHA)

    Up to $22,036

    FY 2023 maximum

    To buy, build or change your permanent home, as long as you or a family member own, or will own, the home and you have a qualifying service-connected disability, such as:

    • The loss, or loss of use, of both hands
    • Certain severe burns
    • Certain respiratory or breathing injuries

    SAH and SHA grants can be used up to six times over your lifetime. Depending on the adaptations you need and your builder’s bid, you can use as much or as little of the grant as you need this year and use the rest in future years. The VA may adjust the maximum each year with the cost of construction, and you may receive up to the current maximum in the last year you use the grant.

  3. Grant 3

    Temporary Residence Adaptation (TRA)

    Up to $44,299

    with SAH eligibility, FY 2023

    Up to $7,910

    with SHA eligibility, FY 2023

    If you qualify for an SAH or SHA grant and are living temporarily in a family member’s home that needs changes to meet your needs, you may be able to get a TRA grant. You don’t have to own the house to use one.
