Northern California Land Trust

Northern California Land Trust The Northern California Land Trust (NCLT) is Community Land Trust making homes and community facilities permanently affordable.

The NCLT executes our mission by providing housing services, community development, and consulting/training services. We revitalize or develop properties (on our own or with local builders and funders and then sell the home at below-market cost to residents who have been trained by NCLT for home ownership responsibilities. Unlike most other affordable housing developers, NCLT retains the rights to

the land below the house and ensures that the home is resold at similar, below-market rates to the next homebuyer, guaranteeing low-cost housing in perpetuity.

NCLT at the City of Pinole‘s Juneteenth & Pride Celebration!

NCLT is currently collaborating with Partnership for the Bay’s Future (Partnership for the Bay’s Future) to create updated affordable housing policies for the City of Pinole, in accordance with new RHNA guidelines. Through a series of community outreach events over the last four months, NCLT and PBF Fellow Jared Murti have been gathering public feedback on community housing needs in Pinole. Our goal is to create policy that touches on the 3 P’s of affordable housing policy: Preservation, Protection, and Production.

NCLT will continue to be out in Pinole this summer! Come say hello!
