EBALDC develops affordable housing, commercial and mixed-use, mixed-income projects in Oakland and across other cities in the East Bay, including Emeryville, Richmond and The City of San Pablo. In addition to building affordable housing for diverse, mixed-income communities, we also acquire existing multifamily properties in Oakland and stabilize the rents for current residents. We also provide consulting services to nonprofits and partners in the neighborhoods we serve to provide residents access to food, education, healthcare and other critical services.
Housing Development
EBALDC has adopted a new, neighborhood-focused housing development strategy. Through this strategy, we look at the development of housing through the lens of health to create homes that lead to greater wellbeing for the area. Though we have been developing affordable housing for decades, this new perspective has allowed us to be more strategic in how we build and more intentional about community amenities that create Healthy Neighborhoods. We are focused on the San Pablo Area Corridor in West Oakland, Havenscourt in East Oakland, and Chinatown.
Re-syndication
EBALDC continues to modernize and renovate existing buildings in its current portfolio, improving the sense of health, vibrancy, and safety within our homes.
Consulting
EBALDC provides real estate development and financial consulting services to strategic partners to create valuable assets and services in the neighborhoods that we serve. Our goal is to work with organizations that provide access to food, education, healthcare and other critical services to address their long-term facility needs. Examples include expansion of the East Oakland Youth Development Center, new Oakland offices for the Greenlining Institute, and a new grocery market to be operated by People’s Community Market.
