1. Affordable Housing The residential rates offered by uncommon ground all fall under the affordable housing allowance stipulated by King County. Based on the most recent AMI, all of our residential units qualify under the affordable housing bracket. 90% of all rental and sales units are available at the 80% AMI allowance. 4% are available at 50% AMI, and a further 6% are available at 120% AMI. 2. Mixed use In the ‘Development Costs’ section of our proforma, it may come to one’s attention that we have accounted for certain office and retail building costs in the housing construction budget. This is because it is one mixed use building, and we have computed a weighted building cost based on the square footage of use and the cost per square foot for that use.
