Through volunteer labor and donations of money and materials, BAHFH builds and rehabilitates simple, decent houses with the help of the homeowner (partner) families, who invest their own labor – “sweat equity” – into building their Habitat house and houses for others.  Habitat houses are sold to partner families at no profit and are financed with affordable, no-interest loans.  The homeowners’ monthly mortgage payments are used to build our next house.  We have built seven houses to date, with work on house number eight in progress.
