Can a Habitat homeowner sell their home?

Yes, homeowners can sell their Habitat home at any time. However, Habitat for Humanity receives first right of refusal, so the home can continue to serve the program. There are often restrictions on resale value and/or permanent affordability covenants. There is also a profit sharing clause that requires that any profit made from the re-sale of a Habitat home within 20 years of purchase must be shared with Habitat.
