Habitat for Humanity homes are available for qualified buyers

Habitat for Humanity of Flathead Valley is currently accepting applications for three homes, one in Columbia Falls and two in Kalispell. The house in Columbia Falls is a pre-existing Habitat home at 19 Mitchell Way. It is a two-bedroom, one-bath home. The two homes to be built later this year in Kalispell are duplex-style townhouses with attached garages. The townhouses will also be two-bedroom units with a bath and a half. Habitat Flathead intends to start construction on a 3-plus bedroom house in Columbia Falls later this year but is not taking applications for that house yet.

In order to qualify for a Habitat Flathead home, the household income must fall within 30-80% of Flathead County’s revised 2024 Area Median Income. The guidelines for this income range changed as of July 12, 2024 and now the range for a one to four person household is $31,200 to $70,700 per year, and, $35,010 to $93,350 per year for a five to eight person household.

The deadline for applications are as follows: July 31, 2024 - Columbia Falls home and Aug. 15, 2024 - Kalispell townhouses. People interested in applying for one of these homes should review the application requirements on the Habitat Flathead website https://www.habitatflathead.org/homeownership
