California's housing shortage isn't a mystery. It's a funding gap.
Everyone knows we need more housing. Fewer people understand where the bottleneck actually is. It's the earliest stage—acquisition and entitlement—where risk feels too high and the timeline feels too uncertain. But, with the right expertise that's where the most opportunity lies.
At Workbench, we acquire infill sites in Santa Cruz County and the Bay Area, navigate California's complex housing laws, and entitle multifamily projects. Then we recapitalize—and our investors see returns.
We've been doing this for 8+ years. We've met every investor interest obligation. And we now have 1,700+ units in our development pipeline.
The SC Housing Catalyst Fund gives accredited investors access to this stage:
• 20–25% target returns
• 15% preferred to LPs
• Short hold periods (2–4 years)
• $25K minimum
• Exposure across multiple projects
Times of uncertainty are the right time to build pipeline. When conditions shift, the developers with entitled, shovel-ready projects get their projects built.
If you're an accredited investor looking for real asset exposure with strong return potential, let's connect. Message us and we'd be glad to share more details.
We're also trying to work out why cities would rather be sued than allow more housing to be built 🤔Luckily, SB79 lays out clearly why they have to do the right thing from the start.
