Portland Housing Bureau Updates Inclusionary Housing & DHA Purchase Caps

The Portland Housing Bureau recently released updated the inclusionary housing and deeper housing affordability price caps. These caps, effective June 1, 2021, limit the amount a developer can charge for a unit and still be qualified under these programs. Although the enabling code and rules refer to percentage of median family income (MFI) qualifications, the true gauge of whether builders may be able to participate in these programs are these caps, which are calculated each year based on MFI.
