Housing for Heroes. Returns for Investors.
Housing for Heroes. Returns for Investors.
Over 500 veterans in Southern California hold government-backed housing vouchers but cannot find landlords willing to rent to them. Many landlords are unaware of the program or concerned about voucher processes, while rising real estate prices make nonprofit housing unsustainable. Veterans face extended homelessness despite government-backed support.
Veteran Keys provides a mission-driven, for profit model that aligns investor ROI with long-term housing for veterans. We acquire and renovate underutilized multifamily properties, lease exclusively to veterans with HUD-VASH vouchers, and partner with nonprofits and sponsors to deliver wraparound services. This creates permanent homes for veterans while generating stable, government-backed returns for investors.
