In Pre-Development:

Pre-development is one of the most important parts of building new affordable housing. Zoning, density requirements, design, and financing all need to receive local jurisdiction approval before building can begin. We currently have 461 units in this phase:

  • Cambria Pines, Cambria – 33 units
  • Community Courts, Ventura – 57 units
  • Cypress Place II, Oxnard – 60 units
  • Del Rio Ridge, Atascadero – 42 units
  • Fillmore Terrace, Fillmore – 50 units
  • Paseo Paloma, Atascadero – 72 units
  • Rolling Hills III, Templeton – 28 units
  • Heritage View, Santa Maria – 119 units

In Acquisition:

Acquiring developable land is increasingly difficult, especially in one of the most expensive real estate markets in the US. However careful planning in these early phases provides a strategic foundation for new affordable housing. We currently have 150 units in the acquisition phase of development.
