homeownership
Building families a future in the GTA.
Our heart is in homebuilding. We build affordable homes for working families in need of better housing, and a hand-up to qualify for a mortgage. These families are put under incredible pressure to provide for their children due to housing affordability in the GTA.
Building strength, stability, and self-reliance
Habitat GTA creates homeownership opportunities that allow families to realize their potential and accomplish their dreams. Habitat families spend no more than 32% of household income on housing, which provides stability, and the chance to leave a legacy for the next generation.
