Own a Home

Own a Habitat Home

Habitat Charlotte builds affordable homes for low-income families who currently live in inadequate housing. Habitat builds houses with families who demonstrate the ability to pay, and a willingness to partner.  All applicants are required to provide employer references and allow rental verification and background checks to be processed.  Once their application is approved, a family must work more than 200 hours of “sweat equity” and also attend classes designed to prepare them for homeownership. 

Only then do they take ownership of a new home and begin making full and timely payments on their interest-free mortgage. While we have transformed the lives of over 700 families in the Charlotte area, our community’s need for affordable housing is far too large for any one organization to solve. Individuals from all races, sexes, and creeds are encouraged to apply.

If you are interested in becoming a Family Partner, we are currently accepting applications. To learn more about our homeownership opportunity, please refer to the calendar of events or give us a call at (704)376-2054.

Habitat offers qualified families a “hand up,” not a “handout.”
