Habitat Loan Purchase Program
The Mississippi Home Corporation created the Habitat
Loan Purchase program to provide a funding source for the Mississippi
based affiliates of Habitat for Humanity.
The program is funded with Corporate Reserves and is designed as a revolving
loan fund. The program involves local affiliates of Habitat and MHC
working together to provide the opportunity for safe, decent and affordable
housing for low income Mississippians.
Habitat is responsible for constructing and financing the home for eligible
families, and MHC provides the permanent funding by purchasing the loans
from the Habitat Affiliate.

Properties must be single family homes or townhomes.
Maximum Loan Term, Amounts & Rates
- Maximum loan term will be 30 years.
- Maximum loan can equal 100% of the value of the property.
- All loans must be at a 0% interest rate and must have a history of six monthly payments at the time of purchase by MHC. The Corporation will purchase loans at the full amount of the remaining principal balance on the loan. Loans may be assumed, subject to MHC’s prior approval.

Each Habitat affiliate must be approved to sell loans to MHC by a Habitat Peer Review Committee, coordinated out of the Habitat Regional Office, in Jackson. Each affiliate will be responsible for establishing its correspondent relationship with the lending institution of its choice.
