This department is offering the Self Help Homeownership Opportunity Program to facilitate innovative homeownership opportunities through self-help housing programs. The program requires significant sweat-equity by homebuyers towards construction or rehabilitation of dwellings. Administered by nonprofit organizations, the program aims to provide decent, safe, and affordable housing to eligible low-income individuals and families. Housing units developed with SHOP funds are sold below market prices, enabling those who would not otherwise afford a home to become homeowners through sweat equity contributions. Homebuyers and volunteers provide labor for construction projects, fostering community involvement in the housing development process.

| Description: | SHOP funds are to be used to facilitate and encourage innovative homeownership opportunities on a national geographically diverse basis through self-help housing programs that require significant sweat-equity by the homebuyer toward the construction or rehabilitation of the dwelling.

Housing assisted under this Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) must involve labor contributed by homebuyers and volunteers in the construction of dwellings and other activities that involve the community in the project. |
