HOUSING SOLUTIONS FOR THE NORTHWEST

Community Frameworks’ SHOP program helps nonprofit partners create affordable homeownership opportunities across Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and Montana. Through zero-interest, forgivable loans and hands-on support, we make it easier to bring sweat equity housing to life—where homebuyers contribute labor to reduce costs and make homeownership more attainable.

With $5.25 million in HUD SHOP funding, we are supporting the development of 170 affordable homes across the region.

Our Support Includes:

  • Financing for land and infrastructure

  • Project guidance and technical assistance

  • Support for new construction and home rehabilitation
