Affordable (Assisted) Housing in the City of Oakland

New Projects

New projects (rental and homeownership) that are under construction but will be available soon are listed here.

Rentals

Assisted Rental Housing in Oakland  (pdf) - a list of all affordable housing developments in Oakland. While you may use this list to locate affordable housing projects, this is NOT a list of available or vacant housing.  Please note that most completed affordable housing projects are full and have closed waiting lists. 

Rental listings may be found through commercial agencies and through local media. Some of these sources are listed on our rental/real estate page.

Homes / Ownership Units

New homes - Lists of affordable ownership units being built can be found on the list of projects underway. You may want to contact the developer of a project to determine when homes will be completed and for sale.

Existing homes - Homes/units that were originally built as affordable housing are not marketed by the City. Current owners who choose to sell their homes may do so via traditional means, such as real estate agents and local real estate listings. Some of these homes are subject to resale controls to ensure continuing affordability; others may be sold at market rate and the subsidies repaid to the City.

Special Needs / AIDS Housing
