Habitat homeowners


Homeowners

Every person should have the shelter they need to thrive.

The homebuyers who partner with Habitat for Humanity come from a variety of backgrounds and are selected at a local level. 

The basis for a household’s selection is their level of need for better housing, their willingness to partner with Habitat and work alongside volunteers, and their ability to pay an affordable mortgage.

Families may find themselves in need of safe, stable shelter due to a variety of circumstances, including unpredictable rent increases, overcrowded living conditions, damaged or dilapidated structures, unsafe neighborhoods, or a lack of access to land and affordable financing.

When Minnesotans partner with Habitat,

they start down a new path — one with far fewer barriers to a better, healthier, more financially stable life. Habitat and the homebuyers who partner with us understand that a home is a far-reaching investment. A home is a strong foundation on which the families who partner with Habitat can grow and thrive.
