Affordable Housing

BKV Group’s philosophy is that it is our responsibility to strengthen our communities and help our neighbors by creating affordable housing designs that improve individual’s lives. We understand that the homes we design create a foundation for the residents, their families, and their lives. We do this through both creativity and advocacy, with our firm having a long history of supporting and promoting affordable housing nationwide.

Our expertise centers around designing to the cultural fabric of the community, using materials and systems that provide optimum value, functionality, flexibility, durability, and timeless quality. We create well-designed environments by understanding the core tenets of the affordable housing industry, delivery of services, marketplace, operations, and financing that support residents and their communities. Our projects create customized results, exceeding the expectations of the people your community serves.
