Information for Contractors

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Participation as an Eligible Contractor for the BeSMART Program

The Department of Housing and Community Development welcomes all contractors who are licensed and insured to help our Maryland Homeowner Borrowers.

If your customer is financing their project through the BeSMART Program, we will ask for:

  • Your W-9 Form
  • A Certificate of Insurance (this can be generic - you do not need MD DHCD or the Borrower's name on it)
  • Your MD HVACR License or MHIC License

Please email these to: BeSmartHome.dhcd@maryland.gov.

Please call Patrick Hall at 301-429-7528 with any questions about the program.
