Self Help Housing
This is a unique housing program. There are no requirements of up front
down payment or out of pocket closing costs. Instead of down payment
and closing costs the participating family must agree to perform a
significant portion of the construction labor, under the supervision of our
professional construction supervisors. Payments may be adjusted to
accommodate household income. This is done by adjusting all the way
down to a minimum of 1% for “Very Low Income”. The interest rate will
never exceed that  given for 502 loans on the day of closing.
