Homeowners Access to Visitability Enhancements (HAVE) Act of 2016
This bill authorizes the Department of Housing and Urban Development to make grants to low-income families to assist them in obtaining residences that are visitable for individuals.

Amounts from such grants may be used only for:
- acquiring a visitable residence that has never previously been occupied,
- constructing a visitable residence, and
- retrofitting or renovating an existing residence to make it visitable.
