Homeownership is a fundamental part of building...
We're happy to have you in the Habitat for Humanity family! Here are several resources we hope you find helpful as a Habitat homeowner.
Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity and Amerinat have distributed all remaining homeowner maintenance funds.
If you have questions about the distribution or your mortgage, please contact Amerinat Customer Service at 800-943-1988 or customerservice@amerinatls.com
HomeHelpMN is providing up to $35,000 in financial assistance to homeowners behind on their mortgages or other housing-related expenses (property taxes, homeowner’s insurance, association fees, or lot rent) due to the pandemic. This assistance does not include utilities. Assistance received does not need to be paid back. The deadline has been lifted, and homeowners can apply as long as funding is available. Homeowners needing assistance are still encouraged to apply as soon as possible. A submitted application is not a guarantee of funding availability. If you need assistance with your application, email MFPP@tchabitat.org.
Habitat is here to support you.
If you are experiencing a financial hardship due to COVID-19 and have concerns about paying your mortgage with Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity or TCHFH Lending, Inc., please contact one of the following:
We know that some Habitat homeowners have received misleading offers to help with mortgage assistance or foreclosure prevention from other parties that are not Habitat. Some of you have also received calls offering to purchase your home. Please do not respond to these offers. Working directly with Habitat as your lender is your best option.
Helpful readings for Habitat Homeowners:Here are the most requested resources for homeowners.
*These documents are PDF files. You may need to download Adobe Acrobat.
Home Repair: While the A Brush with Kindness program is no longer accepting applications for home repair projects, we have provided additional resources that are available on the Home Repair page. These resources include home repair help, assistance with home chores for seniors, weatherization programs, and more.
Foreclosure Prevention: We want you to stay in your home. Habitat provides free counseling, advocacy, and resources to homeowners behind on mortgage payments or property taxes.
Every Habitat homeowner has a powerful story to share. You can support more families by writing a blog, speaking at events, advocating for affordable housing at the Capitol, or participating in an interview with Habitat staff. In many cases, we will provide you with a gift card to recognize your contribution.
All Habitat homeowners get a 20% OFF discount at ReStore, a home improvement outlet. ReStore has a variety of furniture, building materials, flooring, appliances, lighting, and more.
Simply mention you are a Habitat homeowner at the register/cashier to get this deal.
Volunteering is a great way to stay connected with Habitat, make new friends, and learn new skills! Check out volunteer opportunities in your area, and help make homeownership a reality for more families like you.
Support Habitat by attending an event or advocating for us! Have fun while learning more about everything we do, Habitat's impact, and how you can help.

We need your help to reach more Habitat homeowners. Please refer family and friends to Habitat's programs by sharing a link to BuyWithHabitat.org where they can find out if they are eligible for the homeownership program.
Please follow us on social media and share among your own networks! Links to all of our social media channels are at the top or bottom of every webpage.
