💚💙🏠Habitat Worcester is now accepting applications for 3BR 2.5 BA Residential Townhouse Units in Pocomoke, MD!🏠💙💚

This is the only application round available and a request for a preliminary interview means that the applicant is aware that these homes are (1) townhouses and (2) in Pocomoke and if the applicant qualifies, will be able to move to Pocomoke. We are not accepting inquiries for critical repairs, a Brush with Kindness, or single family builds. Potential applicants are required to review the guidelines at habitatworcester.org prior to reaching out to start the application process.

The first round of townhouses will have a summer 2026 delivery, with subsequent units available approximately every 6 months.
