Clark County Affordable Homeownership Program

Creating affordable homeownership opportunities in Clark County

Vancouver Housing Authority and the VHA nonprofit Vancouver Affordable Housing  partnered with Evergreen Habitat for Humanity and Proud Ground to create the Clark County Affordable Homeownership Program (CCAHP). This partnership formed to address the difficulties faced by first-time homebuyers entering the housing market — namely, the high median value of homes and the lack of affordably priced inventory available for households earning less than 80% of the area’s median income.

The goal of CCAHP is to enter into agreements with residential builders to sell newly constructed homes to households receiving program assistance. We anticipate availability of homes during the first quarter of 2024.

Habitat and Proud Ground will offer homeownership preparation counseling with a goal of providing a path forward to secure a loan to purchase a home. Habitat and Proud Ground will also work with available down-payment assistance programs to improve the likelihood of success in becoming a homeowner. Services of CCAHP will be limited to households that earn below 80% of the area’s median income and want to purchase in Clark County.

At present, CCAHP is establishing an interest list for households that want to be contacted when CCAHP services are available. It is anticipated that housing counseling services will become available late summer 2023 to prepare households for purchasing in 2024. If you are interested, please provide  contact information so we can inform you of  upcoming services to start your journey to becoming a homeowner. Please identify your interest in working with Habitat or Proud Ground. Both agencies utilize the same homeownership training and down-payment programs.

If you are interested in becoming a homeowner, or you are a homebuilder or real estate agent interested in working with the CCAHP, provide your contact information so a VHA employee can get in touch with you.
