Habitat for Humanity and the town of Edgartown are searching for an Edgartown family to purchase a two-bedroom, affordable house. The application deadline is March 31, with construction set to begin this summer.

You may qualify to buy this house if you are a year-round Edgartown resident with an annual family income under 80 per cent of the area median income (equal to $62,900 based on a family of four; less for a smaller family, more for a larger one). You also must be willing to give 350 to 500 hours (based on family size) of sweat equity towards the construction of this house.

The recipient must attend a first-time homeowner’s seminar.

Applications are available at the Bank of Martha’s Vineyard, Edgartown National Bank, Martha’s Vineyard Savings Bank, Edgartown Library (located at the Town Hall), Edgartown Post Office, the Edgartown Town Hall and Habitat for Humanity of Martha’s Vineyard’s office at 346 State Road in Vineyard Haven.
