San Luis Obispo County Housing Trust Fund Information

San Luis Obispo County Housing Trust Fund (the "HTF") is a private nonprofit corporation that was created to increase the supply of affordable housing in San Luis Obispo County for very low, low and moderate income households, including households with special needs. Rather than build or operate housing directly, the HTF provides financing and technical assistance to help private developers, nonprofit corporations and government agencies produce and preserve homes that working families, seniors on fixed incomes and persons with disabilities can afford to rent or buy. The HTF was incorporated on February 27, 2003 after years of research, planning and organizing by a broad-based group of volunteers from nonprofit agencies, the business community and local governments. The HTF is a California nonprofit public benefit corporation, and the IRS has determined that we qualify for tax-exempt 501(c)(3) status. We have also been certified as a Community Development Financial Institution or "CDFI" by both the US Treasury and the California Department of Insurance.
