HOMEOWNERSHIP ELIGIBILITY INFORMATION
HOMEOWNERSHIP EVALUATION
Once we verify that your family meets all the listed qualifications, your application will be evaluated based on three main criteria:
✅ Need
Your family must demonstrate a need for affordable housing. This may include living in overcrowded or unsafe conditions, or spending more than 50% of your income on housing, making a conventional mortgage unaffordable.
✅ Ability to Pay
You must have secure employment, a stable income, and good credit history to ensure you can afford monthly mortgage payments through a third-party lender of your choice.
✅ Willingness to Partner
You must be willing to partner with Habitat for Humanity MetroWest/Greater Worcester to become a successful homeowner. Partnership includes completing homeownership education courses and contributing 300 hours of sweat equity by working on your own home, other Habitat projects, or in our ReStores.
