Ballmer Group Funds 10K Affordable Homes

The Ballmer Group is pouring hundreds of millions into building 10,000 new affordable rental homes in Washington state, aiming to prevent family homelessness with forgivable loans up to $150,000 per unit. These homes, designed for families earning around 50% of median income, will offer deep rent discounts and stay affordable for 60 years—potentially saving families $750/month. Already approved projects could see families moving in within 18 months, and this housing push aligns with the Ballmers’ broader mission to boost economic mobility through stable housing. Unlike their earlier education initiative, this housing fund is ready to deploy immediately, with over 1,100 homes already in development and strong developer interest.
