Proud Ground
Proud Ground creates homeownership opportunities for income-eligible households. Serving OR & SW WA.
Our homes remain permanently affordable—and every dollar invested benefits the community in perpetuity. For many families, homeownership represents the American Dream and how most households build wealth. But generations of families with low-incomes and a disproportionate number of Households of Color have been locked out of homeownership. Proud Ground is working to change that by unlocking homeownership for all who believed this dream was out of reach. These intentional efforts have helped over 400 families become first time homeowners and maintain affordable homes for future generations. Founded in 1999, Proud Ground became the first city-wide entity to provide permanently affordable homeownership opportunities and since has expanded to five counties – Clackamas, Clark, Lincoln, Multnomah, and Washington. Today, Proud Ground is one of the largest Community Land Trusts in the country. Our investment protects neighborhoods by ensuring working families can afford to live in their community and keep their home in affordable for years to come. Proud Ground is a membership-based organization, which gives homeowners and donors voting rights on organizational decisions. This ensures that the community members served by Proud Ground are part of the decision making that drives our mission-based work

From brand to brokerage, congratulations to our friends at Grand Union on striking out on their own—and on continuing to choose Proud Ground as a community partner. ❤️
At last night’s launch, co-founder Tyler Koski shared his passion for Portland and presented a quarterly contribution to Proud Ground, reinforcing a commitment he’s demonstrated for more than 13 years.
Tyler began his real estate career at Proud Ground in 2013 and has continued to lead through philanthropy, education, and advocacy—connecting prospective buyers to permanently affordable homeownership, championing the community land trust model, and helping fellow REALTORS® understand how we can make homeownership more accessible to working families.
Thank you, Tyler, Michael Harris, and Janikka Byman, for reinvesting Grand Union’s professional success in our community and for believing that homeownership should remain within reach.
We’re grateful for your partnership and excited to see what’s ahead for Grand Union. Congratulations! 🎉
