Habitat for Humanity Construction Programs
HFHMM provides housing solutions to residents of Montgomery and Prince George’s Counties in Maryland. Families are served through new and rehab home construction, weatherization and repair programs.
New Construction: HFHMM acquires parcels of land upon which to build new homes. HFHMM builds both townhomes and single family homes. All homes are then sold to income qualified families with an affordable mortgage financed by HFHMM.
Rehabilitation: HFHMM acquires vacant, distressed properties in areas hardest hit by the foreclosure crisis. The homes are then gutted and rebuilt to meet codes and improve energy efficiency. The rehabilitation program provides low-income families with the opportunity to purchase a safe and affordable home while helping to alleviate the housing crisis affecting our community.
