Center Creek Capital Group’s Affordable Housing Impact Investments
Center Creek Capital Group offers an innovative market-driven and impact-focused approach to affordable real estate investment. Our scalable platform of single-family rental homes delivers strong, predictable returns to our investors, alongside transformational impact for our families.
With near-term cash flow and long-term appreciation, our investments are a hedge against rising interest rates and inflation, and present investors with substantial downside protection in recessionary environments.
Our investments preserve distressed single-family rental properties in underserved communities across the southeastern United States, rehabilitate the properties into quality homes, and commit them to delivering affordable living to our residents.
Our homes offer families the space and lifestyle they need. Our resident support programs and wraparound services – like financial literacy training, credit counseling, free internet, and our Pathway to Homeownership program offer families the opportunities they deserve.

Current Investment Funds
Center Creek Housing Funds II and III are focused on building an affordable SFR platform at scale. CCHFII has acquired properties in markets in Georgia, Florida, and Alabama, and CCHFIII will be active in these same markets with plans to expand to additional geographies across the Southeast.
Center Creek buys houses that are affordable to working families and low-and-moderate-income (LMI) residents, a target market that is severely underserved. Single-family rental homes currently make up 58% of all rental housing in the United States. While many people automatically think affordable housing means apartment buildings, Center Creek believes the crisis in affordable housing cannot be solved without focusing on SFR – the overlooked half of the market. Center Creek is committed to proving that institutionally managed single-family rentals are a critical and impactful new strategic approach to providing and preserving affordable housing.
Investments in CCHFIII qualify as Public Welfare Investments and provide CRA credit for banks.
Center Creek Richmond II (CCRII) is the investment fund that drives Center Creek Homes, our development platform for renovating and building new homes. CC Richmond II and Center Creek Homes reclaim vacant land and improve highly distressed properties to provide new tax revenue for the City, high quality entry-level homes for individuals and families, and strong returns to our investors. CCRII has created an innovative public-private partnerships with the City of Richmond that can drive compelling investor returns and strengthen communities at the same time.
Track Record Investment Funds
In Center Creek Housing Fund I (CCHFI) we proved that single-family rentals (SFR) can be bought, renovated, and managed effectively in an institutional manner, and delivered strong returns to our investors. CCHFI built a portfolio of SFR in Jacksonville FL, and provided a 14.2% net IRR to our investors*. Moreover, 100% of CCHFI’s rental units were affordable to residents at 80% of Area Median Income (AMI). Center Creek wound down CCHFI in April 2019.
Center Creek Richmond (CCR) was created to demonstrate proof-of-concept while building our capability to renovate distressed properties and develop new infill properties for first-time home-buyers. CCRI successfully proved the market opportunity and Center Creek’s ability to perform and is currently in wind-down mode after laying the foundation for Center Creek Richmond II.
