Virginia Mortgage Relief Program to close applications
Table of Contents
The Virginia Mortgage Relief Program, administered by Virginia Housing, has announced that the program will close to new applicants this fall. Applications for Virginia residents will no longer be accepted after Oct. 1. Virginia's federal funding is limited, but VMRP will continue to operate until the program reaches full disbursement of the funds received from the American Rescue Plan Act and the U.S Department of Treasury.
Homeowners financially affected by the COVID-19 pandemic who may benefit from this assistance are encouraged to apply as soon as possible. Eligible applications submitted prior to October 1 will be processed based on remaining funding availability, with applicants at risk of foreclosure taking priority in the process.
Virginia homeowners in need of assistance with past due mortgage and/or other qualified home ownership-related delinquencies can find information on program eligibility and apply online at VirginiaMortgageRelief.com or by contacting the VMRP Call Center at 833-OUR-VMRP (833-687- 8677), Monday through Friday, from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Homeowners who do not qualify for VMRP and need assistance with their mortgage and other housing-related expenses should contact a HUD-approved housing counselor and/or their mortgage servicer.
