Anyone who meets the requirements found on our "Become a Homeowner" information page on this website.
The application is a three step process. A short single page application starts the process. If we determine you meet the minimum requirements, you will be asked to attend a brief informational meeting and asked to complete a more detailed application. Step three is a home interview with 1-2 members of the Family Selection Committee.
Upon completion of your home it will be deeded to you. Your mortgage will be the total cost Habitat has invested in your home. Payments will be monthly over 20-25 years with no interest. (Approximately $400-$425 per month which includes an escrow payment for your taxes and insurance.)
The application process could take 3 to 4 months before you are notified. If you do not meet the minimum requirements you will be notified early in the process.
