Zero Subsidy Affordable Housing Volunteer Financial Advisor, CrowdDoing
Bobby Fishkin (via Reframe It), Marc Rand, and Mark Moulton have been developing a complementary way to approach making Bay Area housing accessible. CrowdDoing, a joint initiative between Reframe It and Match4Action Foundation is supporting zero-subsidy affordable housing.


Zero subsidy affordable housing is possible, and variations of it work now in the real world. Anti-poverty impact investable housing through equity rather than debt is achieved by separating appreciation value from utilization value of assets. Property rights can be fractured in service and support of stakeholder interest.


As one example, for more than fifty years, Stanford University has made such an arrangement for their off-campus housing for professors. Our notion is that such an arrangement could be offered by an administered investment pool to buyers of a fraction of a home’s appreciation value, combined with the right to live in the home. We suggest that there are investors who could find viable this kind of impact investment in real estate, based on appreciation value but not use value for life of tenant/owners. This might be an innovation in housing affordability that could provide a substantial fraction of the population who cannot currently be housed in existing markets within region a housing opportunity.


Stanford buys half of the appreciation value of each home but not the use value on behalf of the university through a mortgage participation agreement structure. Our goal is a zero subsidy means of scaling affordable housing inspired by how Stanford has supported off campus professor housing over the last 50 years. Housing inclusion, Transportation inclusion,


FAQ:How is this different from down payment assistance? One is that it's not just the down payment, it could be as much as 2/3rds of the value of the house, not 5% of the value of the house, or 10%. You can see some of the distinctions here- https://www.huduser.gov/portal/periodicals/em/fall12/highlight3.html.


Why is this approach needed when there are other kinds of affordable housing? Because there is not enough for families making middle-incomes.


FAQ: Why is this approach more efficient then other mechanisms for affordable housing? Because by bringing equity sharing agreement to scale market rate capital can subsize affordability anywhere in which land constraints are significant barriers such as islands, bays and due to mountains. Pooled equity is 100 times more leveraged because market rate capital becomes self-subsidizing of affordable home fractional ownership.


FAQ: How do impact investors get out liquid from such an investment structure? Our goal is to create a long hold, holding company. Protects from the environment, insulated as liquidity is self-liquifying as holding company. Property rights in our culture of practice and law integrate many different rights together. These include: the initial value for which an asset was purchased , the appreciation value of the asset over time, and the year-round use-value of the asset. This unity of property rights places vulnerable people between 40% of average annual income and 150% of average annual income in this region at risk of being unstably housed. This instability is due to having a too large portion of their annual income paid to housing expenses. Housing costs 2 to 3 times too much for these people to afford. Within that range of incomes, zero subsidy affordable housing strategies can be of exceptional impact potential.


Now, when a family buys a home or apartment, they must almost always buy the whole home. Usually those who do not own homes, rent them. Those who are first time home buyers get a mortgage for the full value of the home. This model w\ould use mortgage participation agreements with qualified families that would allow the fund to buy a fraction of the value of the home (at time of future sale) while allowing the family who buys the rest of the value of the home the right to live there by financing their fraction or arranging to live rent free. A publicly traded fund could buy fractions of the future sale prices of homes. The investors could sell to the fund simply by liquidating their shares. An open issuance of shares could allow more impact investors to invest and through these purchases of shares in the fund, more homes could be purchased. If half the appreciation value of each home was not owned by families, because less money would need to be borrowed, then families could have more secure housing. A publicly traded fund that is designed to leverage mortgage participation agreements to make home ownership more accessible to first-time buyers could attract impact investment. In San Francisco, the median home price is $824,600. The median 20 percent down payment is $164,920. http://www.mercurynews.com/2017/01/16/a-silicon-valley-down-payment-could-buy-you-an-entire-house-in-much-of-the-u-s/. At a 4% interest rate over 30 years that means a monthly payment of $3,934. But suppose that a first time home owner is only buying half of the value of a home - 40% of the appreciated value, and 100% of the right to live there? Suppose that first-time buyer is not paying rent to the passive impact investors who have bought a percentage of the future purchase price of the home. Then their monthly payments would be $1,967. Such a Fund would have an open issuance to secure additional investors. If investors could be attracted based on the overall rise in book value of the real estate being owned compared to other regions in the world, the affordable housing fund could be both economically attractive and impactful.

A self-liquidating structure through a publicly traded hold co can address these challenges if combined with impact investing 30-70% of the appreciation value per home.

Hope.xyz is a small but mighty team of social advocates and technologists supporting grassroots organizations as they meaningfully share and tell the true stories of their advocacy work.

Why stories?

Because in the landscape of today’s social and and digital world, it takes powerful both powerful stories and powerful digital media strategies to reach the communities, leaders, funders, and legislators who can turn those stories into action. Thus far, Hope.xyz has supported dozens of organizations build community involvement, strengthen organizing networks, raise money, and change policy, all through the power of strategic, storytelling and digital story sharing.

Ultimately, our primary goals as an organization are two-fold:

(1) support both emerging and established grassroots organizations grow their storytelling capacities through training resources, access to safe and easy-to-use digital video-capture tools (available on our website);

(2) help those organizations share those stories strategically so as to meet organizational needs, whether the focus is fundraising, community education, volunteer engagement, or support-building for important community initiatives.

Moving forward, we hope to expand the resources available to partner organizations, to enable small grassroots groups doing essential work to receive the recognition, public attention, community support, and resources they need to thrive.

Presently, we are looking to improve secure video collection and editing features on our current cloud-based video platform, in order to enable easier submission, download, and online video editing of user submissions.

We intend to utilize Hope.xyz to enable organizers, political advocates, journalists, news outlets, aid organizations, and others to easily and safely empower members of their communities to share their personal experiences of specific injustices they are experiencing, in order to make specific asks to content viewers, whether the ask is for funding, a call to action, to participate in a particular civic activity, or to support a particular cause in another way.

We are a fiscally-sponsored project of Hacker Fund. We are looking for technical volunteers who have experience with Firebase, AWS Video, and ReactJS that can help us refine our platform.
