Self-Help Housing provides ttve imeans whereby a low-income Attn-; ly with no money for a down payment can finance a plot of land, finance the building materi als, start a house and end up eigMj months later with 35 equity in a new three bedroom home. Self-Help Housing may be an answer for the lowest inoqme families that can obtain a loan from the Farmers Home 'Admin istration. Generally speaking, thiee families that want to bufld a self-'help house agree to work together by exchanging labor. The time required to build the homes vary with the amount of time that the individuals could spend working on the houses. Outside of enjoying better living conditions, the families also have the opportunity to get new skills, self-confidence and pride of owner ship. If enough interest is shown in the project, there are possibil ities f hiring a trained carpen ter who will act as a foreman to supervise the building. The Serv ice of this man will be free to ., 1 1 . t ... ) . . Ethel Wallin, Earle Wise and I recently visited Macon County where the program haa been a big success. The homes were well built and attractive. The houses which carry a $6,500 loan for building material are worth $10 000 when completed. SelMielp is the only way I know whereby a family can start a house with absolutely no money and end up eight or nine months later with a $2,600 or $3,500 "down pay ment." County people that would like to know more about the pro gram contact the Farmers Home Administration, the Office of Ec onomic Opportunity or the Coun ty Extension Office in the Rob erts Building.
