Homes take Shape at the West Grove Construction Site

We are still looking for future homeowners for our West Grove site! These spots will continue to fill up so now is the time to apply for a home.

“This is an incredible opportunity for people of more modest means to be able to live in a four-bedroom, two-bath house with public sewer and water in a growing community like West Grove and very near great schools – all for a mortgage that will average about $925 a month,” said Bob Norris, Vice President of the Board of Directors for Habitat for Humanity of Chester County. “Where else in this area can you find a four-bedroom home for under $1,000 a month, with no down payment required and a one percent mortgage?”

The open houses will take place on March 10th from 8 AM to 10 AM and on March 16th from 11:30 AM to 1:30 PM. Please follow the link below to register for either date.

Getting ready to spring-clean your home or business?

Don’t discard your unwanted items; donate them instead! Donating your new or gently used and reusable furniture, appliances and building materials keeps them out of landfills and stocks your local nonprofit Habitat ReStore. Bargain shoppers, DIYers, and treasure hunters find deals at a fraction of the retail price, and the proceeds help Habitat partner with local families to build, rehabilitate and repair homes in your community.
