Let us outline the steps 1, 2, 3

If you're like many Portlanders, owning your own home is a major part of the American dream.

The Portland Development Commission wants to help you understand the steps to realize that dream.

• Make an informed decision about whether or not homeownership is right for you.
• Determine what you need to do to be ready to buy a home.
• Learn what the home buying process looks like.
• Discover additional helpful tips and resources.

In partnership with the City of Portland, PDC is committed to providing homeownership opportunities to more people.

In 2005, we combined efforts to create Operation H.O.M.E. to support Portland communities working together to close the minority homeownership gap. This community planning process will create the 'blue prints' for both agencies and the broader community through 2015.
