LUBBOCK, TX (KCBD) – Habitat for Humanity Lubbock is hosting a Homeowner Nomination Workshop for those wishing to own a Habitat home.

The workshop will be held Monday, Oct. 25 at 6 p.m. at the Mae Simmons Community Center at 2004 Oak Ave, according to a press release. No registration is required.

“We are fortunate to be building more homes now and are currently looking for five to six potential new homeowners. We encourage anyone who might be interested to attend on Monday evening, ”said Christy Reeves, Executive Director of Lubbock Habitat for Humanity.

Eligibility for the Habitat program is determined by gross income relative to the region’s median income. In Lubbock County, the median income is $ 69,200. Eligible incomes are typically between 30 and 60 percent of the region’s median income, although it can reach 80 percent, according to Habitat for Humanity.

Candidates selected for the Habitat program complete 150 hours of education and training focused on financial literacy and 100 hours of building their future home or other Habitat home.

“The Homeowner Housing program is a boost, not a help for individuals and couples who have a need, are willing to partner up and complete the required hours, and are able to eventually pay off a mortgage. affordable without interest, ”Reeves said.

If you are interested but cannot attend the workshop, call Lubbock Habitat at (806) 763-4663 or visit Habitat ReStore at 3630 50th St. during business hours.
