Earthquake Brace + Bolt Expands to Rentals, Local ZIP Codes Now Eligible
The California Residential Mitigation Program (CRMP) has announced the reopening of its Earthquake Brace + Bolt (EBB) grant program for 2025, giving thousands of homeowners and landlords across the state a chance to strengthen older homes against seismic damage. Registration runs from August 20 through October 1, with grants of up to $3,000 available for qualified properties. The program, which previously focused only on owner-occupied homes, has now been expanded to include rental properties and other non-owner-occupied residences.
