Pacific Housing

What Pacific Housing does

Pacific Housing, Inc. is a Sacramento-headquartered non-profit corporation incorporated in February 1998 by Ross Conti, a retired US Air Force Lieutenant Colonel, to develop affordable housing and deliver supportive services for low-income families, seniors, veterans, and homeless persons in California. The organization operates as Managing General Partner in over 175 affordable apartment communities and serves as co-developer of multi-family affordable housing and lead developer of single-family for-sale affordable homes, including 2500 R Midtown (34 homes) and Heritage at Del Paso Nuevo (91 homes, approximately 60% first-time homebuyers). Pacific Housing's technology stack is a standard non-profit operational footprint consisting of a web-based payroll system, Microsoft Office-style document management, SharePoint-based county resource repositories, WPForms contact forms, and standard social media channels, with no proprietary technology platform, public API, or developer endpoints disclosed.

The company's business model rests on four revenue streams: (1) recurring MGP and asset management fees from 175+ limited partnerships, (2) one-time co-development and lead developer fees per project, (3) grant funding applications yielding more than $300,000 from diversified sources including HUD, Wells Fargo Foundation, the cities of Sacramento and Roseville, Walmart, and Toys R Us, and (4) tax credit equity and bond financing origination via California Debt Limit Allocation Committee (CDLAC) bonds, California Tax Credit Allocation Committee (CTCAC) LIHTC equity, Multifamily Mortgage Revenue Bonds, and HOME funds. Pacific Housing delivers five standardized resident services programs at no cost to residents across 130+ communities — SALT Senior Enrichment, After School Connect (ages 7-12), LOL Teen Program (ages 13-17), Learning Curve Resident Education, and Service Coordination — through embedded Resident Service Specialists supervised by regional managers based in Sacramento, San Jose, and San Diego, with 78,000+ residents attending programs in 2021. Pricing for property partners is partnership-based and not publicly disclosed, while programs are funded through partnerships, grants, and MGP economics. Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales to property developers and owners, supplemented by a third-party contracted resident services channel with Blackstone/TruAmerica in San Diego and a partner ecosystem that has added CIM Group, Nuveen, Kennedy Wilson, and Presidio Bay between 2024 and 2026.

Revenue model

1. Managing General Partner (MGP) fees: As MGP in over 175 affordable apartment communities, Pacific Housing earns asset management and partnership oversight fees from each limited partnership. Revenue scales with the number of partnerships and units under management. Recurring/contractual in nature tied to each property's regulatory agreement.
2. Co-development and lead developer fees: Fees earned as co-developer of multi-family affordable housing communities and lead developer of single-family for-sale communities (e.g., 2500 R Midtown - 34 homes; Heritage at Del Paso Nuevo - 91 homes). Development fees are typically one-time per project.
3. Grants and philanthropic funding: Resident service funding applications yielding grants in excess of $300,000 from entities including HUD, Wells Fargo Foundation, the cities of Sacramento and Roseville, Toys R Us, and Walmart. Application-led, non-recurring per grant cycle.
4. Tax credit equity and bond financing origination: Pacific Housing secures LIHTC equity via the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee and bond financing via the California Debt Limit Allocation Committee to generate and secure capital for development. These funds flow into partnership capital stacks rather than direct revenue but are core to deal economics.
