Portland: a great place to call "Home."
For 50 years, the Portland Development Commission (PDC) has helped make Portland a great place to call home. Our work includes keeping Portland an affordable place to rent or buy a home. PDC funds affordable housing projects and offers homeowner and homebuyer assistance programs that increase purchasing power and lower monthly house payments.
PDC's homebuyer assistance tools include:
- LOAN PROGRAMS
- PDC Oregon Bond Loan - a state-sponsored purchase and renovation loan for first-time homebuyers with low monthly payments.
- PDC Community Renovation Loan - a purchase and renovation loan to help you buy and repair a home of your own.
- Down Payment Assistance Loan - a homebuyer assistance tool designed exclusively for first time homebuyers who are buying a home in one of Portland’s Urban Renewal Areas.
- JumpStart Loan - a temporary interest rate buy-down program for first-time buyers
- Rate Reducer - a permanent interest rate buy- down program for homebuyers and current owners.
