About
Home Construction - Home Construction Program for Austin Habitat for Humanity (AHFH) serves families earning 40% - 80% of median income. AHFH offers qualified families the opportunity to build and purchase a home at 0% interest for an average cost of $89,412. AHFH homes earn 3 stars under the Austin Green Building Program, lowering utility costs and improving the environment. Partner families donate 300 'sweat equity' hours toward the construction of other partner homes as well as their future home. Partner families also participate in 8 courses of homebuyer education and financial literacy education to prepare for the transition to homeownership. Counseling and other assistance is offered throughout their homeownership. The one-on-one housing counseling provided since 2004 has been key to sustaining the financial well-being of our partner families. AHFH homeownership and financial/credit counseling services are also provided for families who enter the program but aren't qualified at the time of application.Home Repair - AHFH offers a home repair program, providing an average of $15,000 in exterior and/or interior home repair for qualified non-habitat homeowners. As with the Home Construction Program, AHFH engages community volunteers to provide construction labor, thus reducing the cost of the repairs and maximizing the use of contributed or granted dollars.
