I am in a similar predicament, however slightly more fortunate. I am a single 25yr old mom of a 6yr old. My income is fairly low. I have no credit, only some college education(i quit college to take care of my dying grandmother) and a jerk of an ex who cant keep a job so i receive no child support. I am living with my step-grandfather who has been out of work for 6 months and a great-aunt with diabetes who has never worked a day in her life. She provides the afterschool care for my daughter.

The one thing I do have is a plot of land that my father left me after he recently died, near east texas. It is NOT worth much, less than half my yearly income. I'd like to build on this lot though so i can finally have my own home. Does ANYONE have any information for free grants etc that could help me build something small on this land???? Someone has to know of something,

I'd rather not go through government housing, I am not a pity story. I am simply asking for help building a house and I'll take it from there. A small grant of $10-$20, ooo should suffice to build a decent two-bedroom in tx. I'm not even sure it'd be that much.

Anyways, ANY and ALL information would be greatly appreciated!!!!
