US real estate investment firm Comunidad Partners has launched an impact credit platform and appointed Debby Jenkins to lead the new business.
Freddie Mac veteran Jenkins has been appointed CEO and partner of the newly launched Comunidad Credit Capital (C3), a platform that expands Comunidad into the Washington, DC market with the introduction of affordable and workforce housing credit solutions.
Antonio Marquez, founder and managing partner of Comunidad Partners, said: 鈥淭he secular demand of affordable workforce housing and the current market environment lends itself to an impact-oriented capital markets provider, as there has never been a more opportune time, nor a more proven leader than Debby Jenkins, to introduce an innovative credit platform led and owned by diverse leaders.鈥
Jenkins said C3 is well aligned with Comunidad鈥檚 鈥漨ission and values of enhancing community and creating opportunity for the underserved鈥.
She added: 鈥淣ot only does this align with Comunidad鈥檚 values, but it is also well-aligned with my personal and professional values and experience leading the nation鈥檚 largest multifamily finance platform
鈥淭he chronic lack of capital being invested into workforce and affordable housing threatens the existence of these properties, which ultimately negatively affects the diverse tapestry of residents who reside in these communities.鈥
