Partner Families
Families that are selected to receive a Habitat house enter into a "partnership" with Habitat in several ways:
- They must contribute a predetermined number of "sweat equity hours" on their house or other Habitat houses.
- They assume a "no-interest, no down payment" mortgage (held by Habitat) based on the cost of building their home ... and to that end they must exhibit a good work record, meet Habitat's income requirements and show the ability to budget and pay bills on time.
- They must be willing to learn about home ownership ... the costs and responsibilities ... and become a good neighbor in their community.
If you live or work in Worcester County and would like to learn more about becoming a 'partnering family' with Habitat, please email Habitat@atbeach.com
