HOME Reform Act of 2025

This bill changes the federal HOME Investment Partnerships program, which funds affordable housing. It raises the income limit for homebuyers and some renters assisted by the program to 100 percent of the area's median family income, and raises the home value limit from 95 to 110 percent. It lets some local governments use HOME funds for water, sewer, road, and other infrastructure tied to assisted housing, and counts units rented to Section 8 voucher holders as affordable. It exempts certain housing projects from federal environmental review, from Build America, Buy America rules, and expands exemptions from wage requirements for smaller projects. It also removes the deadline for drawing down HOME funds and lets unused funds set aside for community housing groups be used for other eligible activities after 24 months.
