INNOVATIVE solutions are required to address the ongoing LA affordable housing crisis. At SDS Capital Group, we believe private funding can unlock streamlined production and create more opportunities for communities in need. The SDS Supportive Housing Fund (SHF) finances permanent supportive housing without relying on taxpayer dollars for land acquisition and construction costs. This unique model creates a new path to cost-effective housing solutions, helping to reduce homelessness in California.
