Fast-Track Homes
Affordable homes available for purchase.
Greater Matthews Habitat for Humanity offers limited-income families the opportunity to purchase not only newly constructed homes, but also select existing homes made affordable through community partnerships.
Like all Habitat homebuyers, purchasers of existing homes are active participants in the process. Through our Home Buyer Program, individuals and families prepare for long-term success by completing homeownership education, financial coaching, and volunteer requirements through our Fast-Track Homebuyer Program.
​
These homes are sold at an affordable price with favorable financing options—providing a pathway to homeownership that builds strength, stability, and independence. Whether newly built or existing, each Habitat home offers a foundation for a brighter future.
We do not currently have any fast-track homes available for purchase.

Be able to close within a designated time line.
Applicants must be prepared to close within 30-60 days of selection, including ability to pay closing costs. (Though the time between acceptance and closing may be longer.

All buyers are required to complete HIP-hours as part of the Homebuyer Program. Individual applicants must complete 50 hours within the 60–90 days leading up to closing. For couples applying together, each person must complete 50 hours, for a combined total of 100 hours during the same pre-closing period.
