Each year, thousands of California’s low-income renters are displaced from apartments that were previously affordable to them due to expiring regulatory agreements or conversions of properties into market-rate rentals that price out lower income residents. This webinar will feature three panels featuring presentations from California Housing Partnership and other experts in the field.
The first panel will highlight the California Housing Partnership’s latest statewide and county-level analysis of data on at-risk affordable homes in the Bay Area and those that have already been lost, discussing the risk, loss and preservation of traditional, deed-restricted as well as unsubsidized properties.
The second panel will present two case studies describing how mission-driven organizations have successfully preserved affordable homes, both subsidized and subsidized in different parts of the state.
The third panel will discuss the policy solutions under consideration right now in Sacramento. Participants will have a chance to add their comments and questions to the discussion.
