How to Apply for A House

Families are selected through an application process, then Habitat builds the home and sells it to the family at cost. The family pays for the home with a 0% interest mortgage.  Monthly mortgage payments do not exceed 30% of the gross income.

Our 2022 Open Application Period begins with the Application Seminar on Saturday, November 12 and ends on Thursday, December 15 at NOON. The seminar explains the program requirements and process. At the close of the application period, all applications are evaluated based on three primary criteria:
