Help with restoring a historical home

[Stephen Scire]

Hello my fellow Bigger Pockets friends,

Does anyone have any helpful info on historical homes.

The home I'm interested in has a historical barn/tavern attached & I was curious if there are any grant monies to help restoring this property.

What are the chances of receiving a grant and percentage of estimated cost. 

Do you think it would it would best to call the state house in which I am looking ?

Curious about all of this because there may be a possibility of converting the barn to a wedding venue. I have a background in catering.

Thank you for any input.

Steve
