The Home Preservation Program will combine volunteers and construction professionals to preserve homes in the Winfield city limits in an effort to make living here more safe, accessible, healthy and affordable for those who may not be able to make these repairs on their own.
Qualifications

Qualified homes will be owner-occupied and paid current on both insurance and property taxes.
