Habitat for Humanity of Green Co., Ohio P.O. Box 866 |
It is a nonprofit Christian housing ministry that works both to eliminate poverty housing around the world and to make adequate housing a matter of conscience and action. People from all walks of life are invited to work in partnership to help build houses with people in need. To date, Habitat has built more than 100,000 houses around the world, providing some 500,000 people in more than 2,000 communities with safe, adequate and affordable houses. How does a family qualify for a Habitat home? To achieve home ownership with Habitat, families must meet the following qualifications: 1. Need for adequate housing. This could mean that your housing is dilapidated or unsafe for you and your family. Or, it could also mean that the rent is beyond your means or that the housing is too small or otherwise unsuited for your family. There are many ways in which housing can be inadequate. 2. Inability to get a mortgage from a bank. This means that your income must be too low for you to save for a down payment and make the monthly payments for a bank mortgage. 3. Ability to pay for the home. The house is not free, but since Habitat homeowners do not pay interest, the payments become affordable to the family, including tax and insurance. It is very important that a Habitat homeowner is able to make the payment each month. When the house is complete, the homeowner must pay a nominal fee for the costs of preparing the mortgage and getting the insurance. 4. Willingness to partner. Building a home with Habitat is a partnership. Each member of the partner family who is 18 years or older must contribute a minimum of 250 hours toward the home or another home. We call that “sweat equity.” It’s hard work, and during the construction process, it will probably take all your spare time. After the home is done, the homeowner continues to be a partner, giving support to Habitat and other homeowners. 5. Satisfactory Credit History The Habitat homeowner takes on a big commitment in building and buying a home. As part of the selection process, references are checked to verify that you have a good credit history. 6. Resident of Greene County The applicant must have been a resident of Greene County for the previous year. |
