Our build program, with its focus on new home construction, helps individuals and families own a safe, decent, affordable home and experience noticeable improvements in health, safety, and wealth generation.
This program is available for individuals and families who have been residents for at least 12 months in the counties of Buckingham, Charlotte, Cumberland, Nelson, Nottoway, and Prince Edward.
-
Safe
Habitat homes are built to standards that provide families with a durable home that will last a lifetime. The health and overall well-being of the family are driving forces in the pride and attention to detail taken in building our homes.
-
Decent
Our homes are made to reflect the surrounding community. Made to be a modest size, they are large enough for the family’s needs, yet small enough to keep construction and maintenance costs to a minimum.
-
Affordable
The hundreds of hours of labor from volunteers and partner families, combined with modest size and attention to energy efficiency, make it possible for families to purchase Habitat houses at an affordable monthly mortgage.
