You can download our complete pricing sheet here.

Units priced over $99,950 are not subject to any resale formulas and may be re-sold at fair market value. Units priced under $99,950 qualify for the Pay It Forward program. We hope that Milepost 5 will always offer a place for creatives to own an affordable space for as long as they'd like to, and experience the benefits of ownership: no rising rents, no forced relocations, tax benefits, freedom to remodel, equity, etc. We also want to pass that opportunity on to future artists.

We've all seen what the real estate market in Portland can do. So, to keep some units affordable for the next artists, buyers of Pay It Forward units receive a $2,500 grant towards closing costs. Upon resale, these units may be sold for up to 2x CPI (Consumer Price Index) or fair-market value- whichever is less. Adjustments for improvements may be included in the resale price.

Please note that prices are subject to change. Also, square footages are approximate and based upon "architectural" measurements taken from architectural plans. Final square footages may differ, and the square footages as shown on the condominium declaration and plat will be based upon condominium measurement standards, which are not the same as "architectural" measurements.
