To qualify for and buy a workforce housing home in Everton:
Attend the Orientation Meeting
You must pre-register and attend a virtual orientation meeting conducted by Palm Beach County’s Department of Housing and Economic Development. These meetings are currently held monthly. They are a simple, one-hour introduction explaining the overall workforce housing program approval process. To register for a virtual orientation meeting, click here.
Meet with the Palm Beach County Workforce Housing Program
Meet with the Palm Beach County Workforce Housing Program (WHP) to complete the application. For this meeting, the following documents are required to certify income and determine eligibility:
- Form 1003 (received after attending the orientation meeting)
- Form 1008 (received after attending the orientation meeting)
- Buyer(s) driver’s license or state-issued identification
- Most current 30-day paystubs
- Most current two months’ bank statements
- Pre-approval/prequalification for first mortgage (if available). WHP buyers are required to have a 30-year, fixed-rate first mortgage.
The documents provided will be used to determine a household’s eligibility for the workforce housing program, and financial assistance eligibility. For more information about this step, contact Lesley George at (561) 233-2065, or lgeorge@pbc.gov.
Secure a 30-year, fixed, first mortgage approval from a lender
You may use any bank or lender of your choice for 30-year mortgage financing, but make sure they understand Palm Beach County’s workforce housing program guidelines.
Apply online through the county portal
You may apply through the online portal as soon as you receive a pre-approval letter, 1003 and 1008 from your lender.
Become an Eligible Buyer
During the intake appointment, county staff will determine if assistance is needed and provide an award letter (valid for 24 months from the approval date). With this document, you are now eligible to buy a Pulte Workforce Housing Unit in Everton.
Find your home in Everton
Review the Everton’s website for updates on pricing and the release dates of homes. Advanced notice will be provided. With an award letter, mortgage pre-approval letter, and proof of funds for the required down payment, you will submit an offer following the instructions provided.
Attend Homebuyer Education Training
Before you close on your new home in Everton, you must attend an eight-hour homebuyer education training through a Housing and Urban Development (HUD)-approved or NeighborWorks-approved housing agency, after which you will receive a certificate of completion that is valid for one year.
Walk-through and Closing
Pulte will schedule a walk-through of your new home before closing. Once your walk-through is complete, you will be approved to close on your new home.
Becoming an eligible buyer and obtaining a workforce housing program certificate and award letter do not guarantee the ability to purchase a home at Everton.
