HABITAT DOES NOT GIVE HOUSES AWAY ....

Potential Partner Families must meet three basic requirements:

(1)  They must demonstrate a need for housing. This need might be created by:
•Overcrowded conditions
•Current housing in need of major unattainable repairs
•Basic housing costs unaffordable

(2)  They must be willing to partner with Habitat for Humanity. This partnership will include:
•The willingness of families to invest hundreds of hours of sweat-equity, working on their own home and the homes of others, before receiving their home.
•Attendance and participation in a variety of workshops, including home ownership, construction, maintenance and financial management.

(3)  Partner families must be willing and able to make a mortgage payment
•Partner Families purchase their new homes from their local Habitat affiliate
•Families must have a minimal amount of debt and have a steady income source
•The Habitat no profit/ no interest mortgage must be repaid within 20 years
•All payments made to Habitat for Humanity go directly to helping build more new homes
