How Does it all Work?

Partners just like you have helped build stronger families and a stronger San Gabriel Valley for over 30 years. Want to know how it all works and your impact? See below.

How do Homebuyers Qualify?

To be eligible to purchase a Habitat home, potential homeowners must meet three areas of qualification.

Ability to Pay

Habitat homes are not given away. They are sold to partner families with a zero-interest mortgage. Each homebuyer must demonstrate steady income.

Need for Decent, Affordable Housing

A family must be currently living in sub-standard housing. Habitat works each day to help families discover decent, affordable housing.

Willingness to Partner

Homebuyers must have the willingness to partner with Habitat by investing Sweat Equity in their home and the homes of homebuyers.

How Communities Benefit

When the people of a community are strengthened, the whole community is improved.

HABITAT HOMEOWNERSHIP CREATES PROPERTY TAX PAYERS

Families who partner with Habitat for Humanity are active, invested families who care deeply for the communities they are a part of. As families settle into their new homes and become a part of the tax base, the whole community is strengthened.

HABITAT CONNECTS PEOPLE DIRECTLY TO THOSE THEY ARE HELPING

Every person who volunteers and donates is a key part of changing a family’s future. Partner families aren’t people who are in far-away places. They’re folks who live and work in this community.

PARTNERING WITH HABITAT HELPS GOD'S PEOPLE TO PUT THEIR FAITH TO WORK

As a Christian ministry, we offer people of all faiths the opportunity to live out a commitment to service and care for the most vulnerable in our communities.

COMMITTED HOME BUYERS IMPROVE THE HOMEOWNERSHIP BASE

When a community has a high rate of homeownership, a beautiful cycle of investment begins. This commitment to a better community means that everyone enjoys a stronger and healthier neighborhood.

INVESTED HOMEOWNERS OVERCOME URBAN AND RURAL BLIGHT

When invested homeowners focus their attention on keeping their home and community in excellent condition, neighborhoods enjoy higher levels of safety, security, and pride of ownership.

VOLUNTEERING WITH HABITAT DEVELOPS TEAM-BUILDING SKILLS

There’s something special about serving together, and sharing an experience that is not only enjoyable – but makes a lasting impact for a family in need. Churches, corporations, organizations, and groups of all types and sizes can partner with us.
