At Portland Housing Center, we believe that affordable homeownership gives everyone the opportunity to discover their potential, to build wealth and to create legacies of homeownership for the next generations.
At Portland Housing Center, we believe that affordable homeownership gives everyone the opportunity to discover their potential, to build wealth and to create legacies of homeownership for the next generations.
We believe in empowering people to live their best lives. We believe that people flourish socially, economically and holistically when they have a nurturing, safe and stable place to call home. Having a home gives each of us the foundation to fulfill our human potential. Owning the place that we call home increases our ability to do so. Affordable homeownership gives everyone the opportunity to discover their potential, to build wealth and to create legacies of homeownership for the next generations. That is why we believe that homeownership is the right to pursue a full life.
