Funding is available for projects not in the housing trust fund portfolio and is at risk of losing affordability due to expiration of use restrictions
The Washington State Department of Commerce is committed to building communities by preserving affordable multifamily housing in our state. Commerce is making $5 million in state funds to projects at risk of losing affordability as part of its ongoing mission.
These projects provide critical housing to some of Washington’s most vulnerable populations. Preservation of existing affordable housing is a critical part of the Multifamily Housing Unit’s vision to make conditions in our state for affordable housing residents the best in the nation, addressing the affordable housing crisis and reducing homelessness in permanent and sustainable ways.
Applications are due to commerce by noon on January 3rd.
