The Community Housing Fund: Creating affordable housing opportunities for Teton County’s essential employees.
The Teton Board of REALTORS® Community Housing Fund allows every agent and seller to designate proceeds or a portion of their commission to fund affordable housing in Teton County at every transaction.
The meteoric rise in housing prices has been devastating for many in our community experiencing housing insecurity.
With concern about the rapidly changing character of Jackson Hole and the ability for essential employees to afford stable, secure housing, Devon Viehman partnered with the Teton Board of REALTORS® to create The Community Housing Fund. The TBOR Community Housing Fund allows every agent and seller to designate proceeds or a portion of their commission to fund affordable housing in Teton County at every transaction.
Twenty-two Fund Founders launched the Community Housing Fund with a $150,000 commitment that will close out the $2.1M capital campaign and complete construction of 174 North King Street.
How the Fund Works
The Community Housing Fund is an opportunity for realtors, buyers, and sellers to give back to the Jackson Hole community at each closing to help bridge the gap in the housing crisis. The Community Housing Fund pools donations to maximize impact on the housing problem that affects every household, organization, and employer in our community.
