The Lancaster/Northumberland Habitat for Humanity has an immediate need for volunteer work that will directly assist us in land acquisition and planning. The schedule is flexible, 24 total hours which can be spread across days.
Tasks may include identifying property ownership history; verifying property boundaries; checking deed transfers, easements, and restrictions; reviewing tax parcel maps or GIS/property maps, and pulling up any relevant documents in county courthouse/clerk’s office
The interested volunteer should be someone with experience in some or all of the following areas: real estate, paralegal work, title searches, or land use/planning; familiarity with county land record systems (or willing to learn); good attention to detail, and able to work independently; comfortable doing some in‑person work at Lancaster County offices (if needed), and/or online research.
