Become a Habitat Homeowner

Want to become a Habitat homeowner? MCHFH offers homeowner orientation meetings on the first Monday evening of each month, provided there is no holiday, at the Marion Regional Hospital in classroom B near the cafeteria. The meeting begins at 7:00 PM. Prospective homeowners will have the opportunity to complete a homeowner application following the meeting. The Family Selection Committee reviews all applications from prospective families. Qualified aaplicants are screened and selected by the committee with board approval. The families selected must be able to support a house payment of $350.00/month, which means they are employed. This is an opportunity for working families who are unable to otherwise own a home to realize the American dream of owning their very own home. The benefits to the family and the community are extensive. Homeowners become taxpayers and consumers of the things one needs to maintain a home. Children have a safe environment in which to study, sleep and socialize. This is a win-win situation for all involved.
