A decent, affordable home is an investment that lasts for generations. Habitat for Humanity homes are not free gifts – each family who partners with Habitat is making a personal and financial investment in their future.
A family or individual must be currently living in either substandard, transitional, hazardous, unaffordable and/or overcrowded housing.
Habitat homes are not given away. They are sold to qualified homebuyers with an affordable mortgage. Each family must demonstrate steady income.*
A family or individual must have the willingness to partner with Habitat Seminole-Apopka by investing Sweat Equity in their home and the homes of other partner families.
*Specific income guidelines are outlined in the Qualification Guidelines. Habitat does not discourage anyone from applying for our home ownership program. However, please note that in addition to meeting Habitat’s monthly income and debt requirements, an applicant must not have filed bankruptcy or had property foreclosed on within the past five years. All court fees, fines, time served, community service, etc. must be fully satisfied and any civil judgment or tax lien paid in full and satisfied prior to being accepted into the home ownership program.
Partnering enables Habitat to equip Future Homebuyers with the strength, self-reliance and knowledge they’ll need to be successful homeowners. We do this by requiring homebuyers to complete a required number of sweat equity hours by taking mandatory classes, working on the construction site, writing thank you notes, and more.
Classes involving financial education, hands-on maintenance training, future planning, and more.
Being involved in the process of building or renovating Habitat homes – including your own.
There are other opportunities throughout the homeownership journey such as attending events, writing thank you cards, and sharing your story.
