Program Infomation
The Path to Homeownership Program isn't for everyone. Applicants must meet eligibility criteria and then agree to a partnership that could take up to 18-24 months. This is not an immediate housing solution. Construction on this South Williamsport home will begin this fall and is expected to take about 12 months to complete.
If this home meets your family's needs and you meet our eligibility requirements, we would be pleased to initiate the application process with you.
Please review the information provided below and let us know if you have any questions.
