MUTUAL SELF-HELP HOUSING

The Arlington Community Development Corporation is sponsoring a Mutual Self-Help Housing Program that provides eligible participants with the opportunity to build themselves new homes by contributing part of the labor necessary for the job in exchange for "sweat equity" in the property.

How do participants become eligible?
Contact Randy Jencks, President of the Arlington Community Development Corporation at (605) 203-0411 for initial eligibility requirements.

What are the benefits to building a home?
Participants will:

• be the owners of brand-new homes built by themselves and their neighbors.
• earn equity by contributing labor. This equity could total as much as $30,000.
• learn valuable new skills that can be used to do more work on their homes or that can be used to increase employment opportunities.
• fulfill the dream of millions of Americans - knowing the pride of owning a home.
• not have to pay closing costs or have a down payment for the home.
