BRUSH OF KINDNESS HOME REPAIR PROGRAM

Our Brush of Kindness program focuses on repairs to both the interior and exterior of homes. An assessment will be made of the home’s condition to determine which repairs are within the scope of capabilities of Habitat for Humanity Lake County.

  1. The qualifying household must own and live in their home (and the property it sits on) for at least 5 yrs. At this time, homes located in mobile parks do not qualify. Certain exceptions may apply.
  2. Household income must not exceed sixty (60) percent of the medium household income as per income guidelines listed below. Income total includes income from all adults over 18 living in the home.
  3. Applicants must have limited other assets, such as funds in bank accounts, money market funds, stocks and bonds, etc. as well as limited other means for funding needed repairs
  4. Households that desire this service must fill out the primary application, followed by the income verification form to provide the necessary financial information. All applicable support documentation must be provided to be considered.
  5. If an applicant passes the financial background check, a house visit will be made to assess the scope and feasibility of the desired/needed repairs.
  6. Once the type and amount of repair work has been determined and it is determined that it is within the capabilities of Habitat for Humanity Lake County, the organization will obtain the necessary resources and schedule the repair efforts.
  7. Habitat for Humanity Lake County will determine the areas within Lake County where these services will be provided.
