Over the same period of time, NHS's bank partners have provided more than $25 million in loans. As an organization, our goal is to strive to meet our maximum capabilities everyday in order to provide efficient, adequate services and quality affordable housing to each client. We offer great home ownership opportunities for families making $23, 000 to $66, 000 per year with as little as $500.00 ( including closing costs ) and up to 2 percent of the sales price. We offer some of the best financing around for qualified borrowers. The model homes that NHS builds from the ground up feature an appliance package. The appliance package includes: refrigerator, stove, garbage disposal and washer/dryer hookups. Also, the homes built from the ground up are pre-wired for cable." In some models, we offer a few custom tailored features. Our homes are energy efficient and come with central heat and air. Most units have a 10-year home buyer warranty. We hold a designation as a green builder and have built several homes at Green Building II level.
