New York under review
Current Rochester official materials conflict on whether the employer-assisted grants top out at $10,000 or $20,000, and the current public materials do not cleanly publish the repayment or recapture rule behind the five-year occupancy requirement.

Comparison notes
These notes keep conflicting or conditional source language visible instead of flattening it into a fake clean answer.
The current program page and October 2025 application say combined grants range from $2,000 to $20,000 depending on employer, while the August 2025 city homeownership booklet still says $2,000 to $10,000.
Current Rochester materials say the buyer must live in the home for at least five years, but the public materials do not cleanly state whether the city recaptures the funds, forgives them over time, or treats them as a pure grant with only an occupancy covenant.
The initiative is still live and relevant to workforce and employer-assisted homebuying research, but the current public record should slow down rather than flatten conflicting city materials into a false detail page.
