What and Where We Build

Since 1990, Habitat NOVA has built or renovated homes in Arlington County, Fairfax County, and the Cities of Alexandria, Fairfax, and Falls Church.

Habitat NOVA homes are modestly-sized but large enough to suit a family’s needs. Managing construction and maintenance costs begins with a smart, efficient design that incorporates the availability of resources, climate, and culture.

Construction is supported exclusively by gift-in-kind contributions, volunteer labor, and generous donor support from foundations, corporate sponsors, individuals, and faith-based organizations. This support enables Habitat NOVA to build and renovate properties within our region and creates affordable homeownership opportunities for low to moderate-income families.
