Meet the Homeowner
“Owning my own home would provide me with the peace and calmness I seek,
allowing me to enjoy my own yard where I can plant flowers and a porch
where I can relax and soak in the weather.”
~ From Teresa’s application letter
Teresa is a native of Asheville who has spent many years renting apartments. Recently, with rent continually rising, Teresa opened her eyes and heart to the idea of homeownership. She has dreamed of planting flowers, relaxing on the porch, and soaking in the weather. She was hesitant to apply for Habitat for a long time, but this year she decided to give it a try. She was approved for an Aging in Place home the Glenn Bridge community.
Teresa is excited to partner with Habitat, to become part of a community, to have housing stability, and to begin creating memories with her family, especially her grandson.
