Through our Homeownership Program, we provide the coaching, education, and support to guide you through the home-buying journey. 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.
These guidelines outline the basic criteria needed to qualify for our program. To apply:
