Portland Collective Housing(PCH) is a non-profit low income housing corporation. PCH is directly controlled by it's tenant/members. PCH owns two houses one in North Portland and one in South East Portland.

PCH grew out of a dissatisfaction of our lot as renters. We never liked the fact that our rents are large enough to pay for our houses, but, because we are not each of us wealthy enough to scrape together a downpayment, we are forced to buy our homes for our landlords. Before we organized as PCH we did not control the conditions of our housing. We had no say in this vital area of our lives. So we organized.

Because rent is a ripoff.

We are a volunteer/member run non-profit organization and thus can always use assistance ranging from fundraising (includes loans as well as donations) to donation of time, professional or not. We are always looking to assist people who are committed towards communal living to purchase their homes.
