An Affordable home.
Habitat works to eliminate barriers to a better, healthier, more financially stable life. With our help, Habitat homeowners achieve the strength, stability, and independence they need to build a better future for themselves and their families.
NWV Habitat builds about 1 affordable home a year to qualified individuals and families in our community. Mortgages are affordably set at approximately 30% of the homeowner’s income at the time of loan application. From application to owning a home takes approximately 18-24 months. Habitat is a long-term homeownership program and does not provide emergency housing.
NWV Habitat for Humanity is an ecumenical housing ministry financed through private donations and volunteer labor that provides a unique opportunity for hardworking families to build and buy their own homes. The selection of families who will purchase homes from NWV Habitat for Humanity is done by the Family Selection Committee. We are an Equal Housing opportunity organization. We are pledged to the letter and spirit of U.S. policy for the achievement of equal housing opportunity through the nation. We encourage and support an affirmative advertising and marketing program in which there are no barriers to obtaining housing because of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, sexual orientation, or national origin.
