Here is the full release with information on who is eligible and how to apply:
Redmond, OR – Bend-Redmond Habitat for Humanity is excited to announce that applications are now open for 18 new homes in Southwest Redmond. This latest development comes as Habitat continues to meet the need for hardworking families and individuals to achieve affordable, sustainable homeownership in Central Oregon.
Located at 4300 SW Quartz Ave., Ward Commons features single-family detached homes with two- and three-bedroom options, attached garages, and energy-efficient, solar-powered designs to keep utility costs low. The community will also include a dedicated children’s play area and a community dog park. Estimated completion for the development is Fall 2026.
Why Apply for a Habitat Home? Habitat for Humanity offers a unique pathway to affordable homeownership. Unlike traditional home buying, Habitat’s program ensures that monthly mortgage payments remain affordable—typically ranging from $1,300 to $2,100, with payments capped at one-third of a homeowner’s income. Additionally, future homeowners receive comprehensive support, including financial literacy education and home maintenance guidance, to help them succeed in their homeownership journey.
How to Apply – Interested applicants can begin the process by completing a short eligibility form online. Those who meet the initial requirements will be invited to complete a full application. To access the eligibility form, visit BendRedmondHabitat.org.
Apply by March 5th to be considered for this exciting new development.
