Whats the easiest way of getting government grants for home improvements?
Russell:
The ads that you have probably seen offering "government grants" for "home improvements" and other forms of personal financial assistance, are part of a large-scale scam. It’s been around forever, but the scam artists are out in droves, at the moment, doing their best to take advantage of hard-working people who are suffering through this national economic depression.
The federal government does not offer GRANTS for home improvement, but that doesn’t mean that there is no help available.
I think you might find this page useful as a resource to learn about the government aid that IS available to people looking for home improvements: http://usgovinfo.about.com/library/weekly/aa061100e.htm
If you want to see something sad – the company that hosts this particular page – like most web portals – sells ads to cover expenses. What you’ll see, at the bottom of the page, is ads for the very "grant" scams that the page, itself, is warning you against.
You can also read the information offered directly at the government’s Housing and Urban Development site, here: http://www.hud.gov/improvements/index.cfm
Good luck!
