Affordable Housing Development and Preservation

Pierce County and the Pierce County Community Development Corporation have made roughly $17M available to support the development and preservation of affordable housing for low, very low, and extremely low-income residents. With this historic investment in affordable housing (roughly 4x the normal amount!) we are looking to find eligible applicants to acquire, newly construct and/or rehabilitate affordable rental or homeownership housing. Applications accepted until June 10. Learn more at www.piercecountywa.gov/hssb

Mortgage Assistance

The program provides eligible homeowners foreclosure prevention counseling and up to 4 months of mortgage assistance ($6,000 cap) paid directly to the loan servicer, bank or mortgage company. Owners must own homes in the City of Tacoma or the Pierce County Consortium (see consortium members below). Homeowners must have experienced loss of employment or reduction in wages due to COVID-19, and have an income at or below 80 percent Area Median Income for Pierce County. Homeowners that are outside the City of Tacoma or the Pierce County Consortium in need of support should contact the Washington State Foreclosure Prevention hotline at 1-877-894-4663.
