About US
Access Home Ownership is committed to increasing home ownership opportunities for Portland residents.
We are a team of professionals with decades of experience in the Portland housing market. We know that home ownership is the greatest wealth generator in America, and feel it’s imperative that this opportunity becomes accessible to more people in Portland. With Access Home Ownership, we set out to better serve current residents with a long-term investment in a city we love.
Why Own a Home?
Ownership allows you to control your future housing costs, and to gain personal equity as your unit increases in value.
Home ownership is the greatest wealth generator in America. Yet with prices rising rapidly and Portland’s housing shortage becoming more acute, costs for both ownership and rents are rising much faster than incomes, pricing current residents out of Portland.
Why Portland?
Portland has become increasingly unaffordable to all range of housing. Rents have risen 7% per year since 2015. The average home price in Portland is $546,277 in 2024. Portland is increasingly becoming a city where only the wealthiest residents can afford to buy their home.
BEN HUFFORD, PRINCIPAL
I’ve lived and worked as an architect in Portland for 28 years. During my career, I’ve worked on projects such as PDX Airport, Portland Community College Cascade Campus, urban planning projects, commercial buildings, housing, and many notable bars and restaurants.
My expertise in designing, permitting, and building in Portland will bring the critical experience required to solve Portland’s urgent need for a more plentiful and diverse housing supply.
