Septic problems? Upgrade or switch to city sewer with no money down.
Failing septic systems can lead to costly repairs, property damage, environmental contamination, and serious health risks. Whether you need to upgrade to an advanced septic system or connect your home to the city sewer, PACE financing may help make it possible.
With PACE financing, qualified homeowners in eligible areas can fund eligible improvements with $0 down and repay over time through a special assessment added to their property tax bill.
