Greenville Facade Improvement Program

The Greenville County Redevelopment Authority and the County of Greenville have developed a Façade Improvement Program (FIP) to encourage improvement and investment in the overall revitalization of the Poinsett Highway Corridor. This program provides up to $10,000 in the form of a declining balance, non-interest-bearing loan. Funds obtained shall be utilized to finance exterior improvements to a property owner’s or tenant’s commercial building that will be aesthetically pleasing and complimentary to local design guidelines or concepts acceptable to the GCRA and the County. The purpose of the program is to provide financial incentives to business owners located within the Poinsett Highway Corridor and to provide an opportunity to upgrade the exterior of their building. The program is designed to retain and attract businesses, strengthen the Poinsett Highway Corridor, increase the utilization of existing properties and buildings, restore economic vitality, and enhance property values.
