Philly Town Hall: Housing Help, Homeownership & Repairs
Curtesy of Sajda Blackwell,
this We Talk Weekly special brings you the full Community Housing Town Hall hosted in West Philadelphia with Mayor Cherelle Parker’s team, PHDC, and local partners. Packed with resources, this town hall explains how residents can access housing assistance, home repair programs, first-time homebuyer grants, and more.
Speakers shared powerful insights into programs like Turn the Key (new affordable homes), Philly First Home ($10K grants for first-time buyers), Basic Systems Repair Program (BSRP) (free repairs for roofs, plumbing, and electrical), Adaptive Modifications Program (disability accessibility upgrades), Restore, Repair, Renew (low-interest home improvement loans), and the Rental Improvement Fund (help for small landlords). Residents also learned about the upcoming Disaster Recovery & Resilience Program, tenant financial assistance, and how to navigate housing counseling requirements. This video is your complete guide to housing resources in Philadelphia — with chapters to help you jump straight to what matters most.
