About the event
Affordable housing is one of the defining challenges of our time β and as Washington grapples with a massive housing shortage, the legal questions surrounding it are showing up everywhere. Real estate, tax, corporate, land use, environmental, municipal law: affordable housing touches all of it. Whether you encounter these issues daily or have never thought about them before, this session will change how you see the landscape.
Join us for Affordable Housing 101, a lively, plain-English seminar built for the curious β no prior experience required. Over one fast-moving hour, Kiry Nelsen will demystify what "big-A" Affordable Housing really is and how it gets funded, regulated, and incentivized. You'll get a clear tour of the different housing types (transitional, workforce, affordable homeownership) and the engines that finance them: the federal Low-Income Housing Tax Credit program under IRC Β§ 42, which powers most affordable rental housing nationwide, plus Washington's own toolkitβ¦
