To be eligible for the Habitat Homeownership Program, applicants must have lived and/or worked in Monroe County for a minimum of one year. Additionally, applicants must demonstrate a need for housing, an ability to pay an affordable monthly mortgage, and a willingness to partner—a commitment we call “sweat equity.” As part of the Habitat homeownership process, it is a requirement that you and each member of your household over 18 years of age commit to completing 250 sweat equity volunteer hours.
