Gov. Tom Wolf announced Oct. 13 that the Pennsylvania Housing Finance Agency is improving the COVID Relief Mortgage and Rental Assistance Grant Program to help more renters and homeowners remain in their homes. Effective Oct. 17, landlords and mortgagees will have a new option to reach agreements with renters and homeowners for repayment of rent and mortgage payments above the program's $750 monthly cap. The program previously required them to forgive the balance of the payment.
