Home Offering

Every family needs a strong foundation to build a brighter future.

For families without land, Honolulu Habitat for Humanity works in partnership with State and City departments to designate properties for affordable homeownership.  Lots are publicly offered when available and awarded to families by lottery selection.   

Families that partner with Honolulu Habitat help build their homes alongside volunteers, participate in financial education classes, and learn how to maintain their new home throughout the program. 

Do you qualify?

To be eligible to purchase a home with Habitat for Humanity, potential homeowners must meet these areas of qualification:

  • You must have a steady income.
  • You must have a need for housing.
  • You must be willing to partner.

*Specific income guidelines will be discussed once a family or individual has submitted an application. Habitat does not discourage anyone from applying for our homeownership program. However, please note that in addition to meeting Habitat’s monthly income and debt requirements, an applicant must not have filed bankruptcy or had property foreclosed on within the past three years. All court fees, fines, time served, community service, etc. must be fully satisfied and any civil judgment or tax lien paid in full or satisfied prior to being accepted into the homeownership program.

We’re offering a hand up, not a hand out

Habitat for Humanity homes are not given away. When a family or individual partners with Habitat, they invest sweat equity by building their home and the homes of others. Each family also participates in financial literacy courses and much more. In short, the path to homeownership isn’t easy, but owning your own affordable home is very much worth the investment.
