2024 Update
Unlocking Affordable Homeownership Supply in Washington State
Now Available: 2024 Update to Our Closed Doors Report and Dashboard. In 2022, Homestead Community Land Trust first published the Closed Doors Report and Tableau dashboard to lower barriers to information needed to catalyze system change and address barriers to affordable housing and homeownership in Washington State. Policy makers, housing advocates and philanthropists have faced barriers to information about how the crisis of supply of affordable for-sale homes is playing out in their communities. This resource provides that information as well as demonstrates the disproportionate impact of this crisis on lower-income households, including those historically excluded from homeownership by discrimination. What are the keys to unlocking additional homeownership opportunities for modest-income households and closing disparities in homeownership rates in Washington State? Learn more by downloading our report and studying the data for your region.
