Developer of affordable housing for underserved markets to aggressively accelerate service and growth.
Plano, Texas Sep 8, 2023 (Issuewire.com) - RCG, LLC, an innovative, purpose-driven firm committed to the creation of affordable housing in urban areas to underserved markets, today announced it has launched a Series A round of financing. Malibu Holdings seeded the investment round with participation from Dr. Ron D. Ford. The investment will further the company's aggressive expansion of its support for its portfolio. Dr. Ford will join RCG's board of directors.
Malibu Holdings supports early-stage startups that redefine or create large new markets, with such notable ventures as Quixote Studios, Smashbox Cosmetics, Think Thin Nutrition, JMB Model Management, and St. Clair Entertainment.
The Series A financing builds on an exceptional start-up of RCG which is rapidly growing. RCG, intends to increase the development of energy efficient, new high quality affordable and accessible housing, and will work diligently to preserve the existing viable housing stock in City of Muskogee, Liberty City, TX, and Dallas/Fort Worth Texas targeting low-and moderate-income communities, and majority minority neighborhoods.
Within three - five years, RCG, LLC intends to expand program and service area to include other urban Texas cities (Houston, Austin, San Antonio) that have a high propensity for the need of affordable housing and economic disenfranchisement and/or lack of investment in the identified areas.
RCG has applied for its U.S. Department of the Treasury, Community Development Financial Institution (CFDI) certification and is pending approval. Certified CDFIs are eligible to apply for awards through a variety of programs offered by the U.S. Department of the Treasury CDFI Fund. These awards will enable RCG to provide mortgage lending for first-time homebuyers, flexible underwriting for community facilities, and commercial loans for businesses in low-income areas.
"The American dream has eluded the underserved for too long," said Ford, Chairman of Malibu Holdings. "We believe that our great nation is stronger when families feel a sense of ownership in a community. Byron and his talented team are uniquely experienced and motivated to deliver on this inclusive pursuit of happiness."
"Having the financial support and domain expertise of Malibu Holdings and other strategic investors will help us execute our vision even more rapidly and broadly - and with the benefit of their experience, perspective and relationships," said Byron Reed, RCG founder and Chief Executive Officer.
