ULI Homeless to Housed Case Study: Arbor Pointe Family Apartments

Zusammenfassung der Fallstudie: Arbor Pointe delivers a multifamily community of affordable rental units in a well-located Las Vegas neighborhood. It is a Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC)–financed redevelopment that brings much-needed affordable rental housing to southwest Las Vegas. The project provides high-quality, service-enriched affordable housing for families in a growing community, ensuring long-term affordability and stability for residents.

The property includes a mix of two- and three-bedroom apartments designed for families at varying household sizes and income levels. By combining affordable rents with supportive amenities, Arbor Pointe seeks to provide a safe and welcoming environment for families to thrive. The Southern Nevada Public Land Management Act (SNPLMA) was the primary driver behind the project. During a period of rapidly escalating home prices across the Las Vegas Valley, Clark County worked closely with the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to identify suitable sites for affordable housing development. Arbor Pointe was one of the selected sites. To ensure that affordable housing could continue to be built in the area, the County issued a request for proposals for development, leading to the creation of this community.

The firm takes a regionally tailored and vertically integrated approach to development, construction, and management, which ensures that projects reflect local cultural identity and market needs while maintaining long-term affordability and quality.
