“We are so thrilled to be opening the application process once again and to build in Enterprise,” said Linda Baker, executive director of Habitat for Humanity of Southwest Utah. “This is new area for us and we are grateful for this opportunity.”
At the meeting, potential habitat homebuyers will learn all about the process of applying for a home and what it takes to qualify and receive the application.
Potential homebuyers must be in need of better housing. They might be dealing with poorly made, unhealthy, or inadequate housing; unaffordable rent; homes inaccessible for their disabilities; or other shelter needs.
