Phoenix Historic Homeowners Can Get Up to $20K in Exterior Repair Grants

If you own a historic home in Phoenix, there’s a unique opportunity on the table: the city is offering up to $20,000 in matching grants for exterior repairs—think roofs, masonry, even porch projects—through the 2026–27 Exterior Rehabilitation Grant Program. Applications are due by October 9. Having worked with so many buyers and sellers across the Valley, I know how important it is to preserve the unique character of our historic neighborhoods, but I also know how much the upkeep can add up. Programs like this can make a real difference for homeowners looking to maintain both curb appeal and long-term value. If you have questions about how these grants could play into your plans, it’s always worth looking at your options.
