The homeownership program requires that you partner with Habitat by completing 200 "Sweat Equity” hours (volunteer hours) for single applicants and 400 hours for dual applicants.

We are always seeking to purchase new lots on which to build/rehab homes. We do our best to match the area you wish to live in with what we have available, but we cannot guarantee a suitable match. Please indicate your top three areas in Wood County in which you would be willing to purchase a Habitat home.
