Step 1: Review Program Materials

Before you begin, Please review the orientation videos posted below.  These include:

• HFHLC homeownership program overview

• Requirements to qualify and selection criteria

• What it means to partner with Habitat for Humanity to help build your future home

• A description of permanent affordability, how it benefits our community, and how it impacts future Habitat homeowners

​​

Step 2: Review Criteria for Family Selection under the Qualifying for a Habitat Home tab

​

Step 3: Complete an Application

​​

Step 4: Home Interview

The Family Selection Committee will schedule a home visit with qualified applicants and interview the families to further determine the applicants’ level of need.  After all home visits have been completed, the Committee makes a recommendation to the Board of Directors, who then make the final decision for partner family selection.

​

Step 5: Sign a Partnership Agreement

​

Step 6: Complete Financial Foundations and Homebuyer Training

​

Step 7: Complete Sweat Equity Hours / Help Build Your New Home

Ideally, you will complete sweat equity hours by helping build your new home.  You'll learn valuable skills to help maintain your home after the purchase.  Alternative methods for completing sweat equity are available for those physically unable to help with construction.

​

Step 8: Purchase Your Home / Sign Mortgage Documents

Once the home has been completed and a certificate of occupancy has been granted by the City of Lincoln City, partner families will sign loan documents and mortgage agreements.

​

Step 9: Move In!!!

Step 10: Begin Monthly Mortgage Payments
