Housing

Whether you are a renter or a homeowner, our goal is to inform you about housing assistance programs and projects. While we know that this is a great community to live in, we recognize that finding affordable housing, buying a home or addressing your housing needs can be difficult. We can help you on the following:

  • Affordable housing
  • First-time home-buyer programs
  • Foreclosure information and resources
  • Home repair grant opportunities
  • Housing developer resources
  • Housing element
  • Tenant and landlord information

If you or someone you know is homeless or at-risk of homelessness, please call 2-1-1 for immediate assistance and to get connected with Alameda County’s Homeless Coordinated Entry System. Click here for more information.
