What is Owner Built Housing

self help housing

Groups of families work together to build each other homes under the guidance of a construction supervisor. The groups provide at least 65% of the construction labor. Hard work is the key, along with a willingness to work cooperatively with other participants. 

The labor provided by the families reduces the cost of the home approximately 30%. This reduction in conjunction with low interest rates and no down payment can make home ownership affordable for you

With the Self-Help Affordable Housing you must qualify for a Rural Development loan and be willing to participate in a construction group

There is no down payment required

Am I eligible for a Rural Development Loan?

You may be eligible if:

  • You meet the income requirements
  • You are a reasonable credit risk
  • Your monthly debt will meet qualifying ratios
