Habitat for Humanity Tucson gifted seven homes this morning, reaching a historic milestone of building and giving away a total of 501 homes since 1980.
One of the homebuyers, Frances Quintero, is a single mom of three. She’s volunteered on Habitat construction sites multiple times but is now on the receiving end.“It’s just so surreal that we’re here and that we have our home now," Quintero said.Habitat homes are paid off through an affordable mortgage with down payment assistance, making homeownership achievable. Families also put in 250 hours of labor to help build the homes.
