The Roots Project turns part of rent into protected equity, builds permanent affordable rental homes, protects starter homes from bulk buyers, and requires family-sized, pet-inclusive housing where public value helps create the project.
- 20% of monthly rent is diverted into a protected Roots Equity Trust that belongs to the renter.
- A first-term target of 2,000 Roots Project homes approved or in the pipeline.
- Local Buyers First protects starter homes with a 0% corporate bulk-buying cap and a 60-day priority window.
