CREATING WORKFORCE HOUSING

Workforce Housing is an integral part of today’s American communities. The increasing wealth disparity has made Workforce Housing an ever growing part of the multifamily sector.

Workforce Housing is generally defined as housing affordable to households earning between 60 and 120 percent of area median income (AMI). Workforce Housing targets middle-income workers which includes professions such as police officers, firefighters, teachers, health care workers, retail clerks, and the like.

Households who need Workforce Housing sometimes qualify for housing subsidized by the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program or the Housing Choice Vouchers program (formerly known as Section 8), which are two major programs in place for addressing affordable housing needs.

Workforce Housing has been a stable component of Golden Bee Properties’ investment thesis over the past decade and has generated significant risk adjusted returns due to a lower than average price per unit and higher than average market cap rate.

Workforce housing targets the <$75,000 annual income working-class demographic – approximately 60% of the US population.
