Summary
Portland’s new home-sharing pilot, designed to unlock affordable housing by incentivizing homeowners to rent spare rooms, is moving slower than hoped—with just five applications after four months. The program offers a $1,000 grant for renting a room at $200/month for a year, plus a 30-day minimum rental requirement. Officials remain optimistic, expecting momentum as the initiative continues to evolve as part of a broader affordable housing strategy.
