Oregon Housing And Community Services Invests In 261 New And Existing Affordable Homes (Photo) - 11/10/25

SALEM, Ore. — Oregon Housing and Community Services (OHCS) is funding the development and preservation of 261 affordable rental homes across the state. The state’s finance agency is reinforcing its commitment to addressing housing affordability through strategic investment and community partnership.  

 

“Increasing housing supply is the single most important way to make life better and more affordable for Oregonians,” said OHCS Executive Director Andrea Bell. “We want Oregon to be a place where everyone can thrive. A place where people's fundamental needs are met, businesses can grow, and communities are strengthened by locally driven solutions. We cannot afford to wait or be incremental in our actions to bring about this future.” 

 

The affordable housing projects, approved by the Oregon Housing Stability Council (HSC), span both urban centers and rural communities and represent an investment of more than $100 million in affordable housing this month.

 

“This is shared progress with housing partners across the state. Every month, we move towards a future where every Oregonian has a safe, stable, and affordable place to call home,” said Mary Farrell, member of the HSC. “These homes represent hope, opportunity, and a more equitable Oregon.”
