Habitat for Humanity can help low-income families realize the dream of homeownership

You may qualify for a Habitat for Humanity house if:

You have a steady income and pay your bills on time
You have a housing need
You are willing to partner in the building process

Habitat for Humanity offers a unique opportunity for low-income individuals, couples and families to become homeowners. There are three initial areas in which you must qualify to participate as a Habitat Homeowner. Here are some of the details:

1. You may qualify if you have a need for better housing:

You are living in a home that is too small for your family (boys and girls sharing the same room, etc.)
Your current home is of sub-standard quality (this might include problems with the structure itself, the heating/cooling system, water, sewage and electrical systems, etc.)
You are unable to qualify for a conventional mortgage.

2. You are low income, but you still have the ability to pay for a home – with some help.

3. Willingness to be a partner with Habitat
