If you are a Cuyahoga County homeowner and your finances have been affected by COVID-19, you may qualify for mortgage payment assistance.

Cuyahoga County’s mortgage assistance program, administered by CHN Housing Partners, Community Housing Solutions, and Empowering and Strengthening Ohio's People (ESOP), is here to help County homeowners who have difficulty paying their mortgages because of the financial impact of COVID-19.

How does the program work?
The mortgage assistance program gives eligible residents relief towards outstanding balances on mortgage bills in the form of a deferred loan.

To be eligible for the Mortgage Assistance, the borrower must meet the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s income guidelines, have missed one or more mortgage payments due to COVID-19 and the house must be the borrower’s primary residence, among other criteria.

How do I apply/get more information?
