Maui County’s Hoʻokumu Hou rebuilding assistance programs now cover more homeowners after a federal AMI update raised the income threshold, and the application deadline has been extended to December 31, 2026. An informational open house is scheduled for August 20 in Kahului.
- Maui County’s base Area Median Income rose from $110,000 to $121,400 in May 2026, expanding income eligibility for the Hoʻokumu Hou reconstruction and reimbursement programs.
- Homeowners who previously exceeded income limits are encouraged to recheck their eligibility under the updated thresholds.
- The Single-Family Reconstruction Program offers up to $1.2 million to rebuild a primary residence; the Reimbursement Program offers up to $400,000 for those who have already rebuilt.
- The application deadline for both programs has been extended to December 31, 2026.
- A free ‘Meet Our General Contractor’ open house will be held August 20, 2026, from 5–7 p.m. at Maui Mall in Kahului, where homeowners can view home designs and speak with program staff.
