You Must Be Willing To Partner With Us
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.

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.
