r Navarre Housing Study Respondents were asked if they would apply for loans or grants to pay for house repairs. Aw to whether or not the residents would use loans or grants given the opportunity, the majority indicated they would. This contradicted the response for the previous question. Perhaps the respondents who can afford house repairs would none the less be interested in loans or grants if they were available. Area II expressed the greatest interest in grant or loan money. Many respondents indicated they would not or did not know if they would use grant or loan money.
