Our Story
Prime Meridian LLC was founded by a team of real estate developers, general contractors, and investment professionals with over four decades of combined hands-on experience. We saw a persistent gap in the market: institutional-quality affordable housing deals existed, but private investors lacked the specialized knowledge and federal relationships needed to access them efficiently.
We built Prime Meridian to solve that problem — assembling a team that includes a HUD Key Principal, LIHTC specialists, and seasoned construction professionals under one roof. Today, we structure deals that deliver 90% LTC/LTV financing, LIHTC equity, and federal backing to investors who previously had no pathway into this asset class.
Investment Philosophy
Our investment philosophy is built on four principles that we apply consistently across every project, every partnership, and every community we serve.
Investor-First Structuring
Every deal is engineered to maximize investor returns while minimizing capital at risk — leveraging 90% HUD financing so your equity works harder.
Community Impact
We believe that great returns and meaningful community benefit are not mutually exclusive. Every project we develop creates lasting value for residents and cities.
Regulatory Expertise
Four decades of navigating HUD, LIHTC, state bond allocations, and municipal approvals — we know the rules, the people, and the process at every level.
Accountability & Transparency
We operate with full transparency — detailed reporting, open communication, and a long-term commitment to every investor and community partner we serve.
What We Do
Four core capabilities that define how Prime Meridian creates value for investors, developers, and communities.
Structuring complex HUD 221(d)(4) and 223(f) financing solutions that provide up to 90% LTC/LTV — dramatically reducing the equity required from investors while securing federal backing.
Maximizing Low-Income Housing Tax Credit equity for affordable housing developments. We navigate state allocations, syndicator relationships, and compliance requirements to optimize the capital stack.
Connecting institutional investors, family offices, and high-net-worth individuals with high-quality HUD development opportunities offering institutional-grade returns with government-backed security.
Building long-term relationships with cities and local governments to align development projects with community needs, zoning requirements, and public benefit goals.

What sets us apart from every other development and syndication firm in the affordable housing space.

Government-Backed Financing
Access to federal HUD programs that reduce investor risk through 90% LTC/LTV financing and long-term fixed-rate structures.
Transparent Communication

Long-Term Commitment
We don't build and exit. Prime Meridian remains invested for the long term, aligning our interests with those of our investors and communities.
The Prime Meridian Advantage
Working with Prime Meridian means more than access to deals — it means partnering with a team that has spent four decades mastering every lever that determines whether a HUD project succeeds.
90% LTC/LTV — Less Capital, More Return
HUD financing structures allow investors to enter transformative projects with as little as 10% equity. That means your capital works harder, your risk is reduced, and your return on equity is dramatically amplified compared to conventional financing.
Federal Backing Reduces Your Risk
Every deal we structure is underwritten against federal HUD programs — the same programs that have financed affordable housing in America for decades. Government-backed debt means predictable terms, long-term fixed rates, and institutional-grade security for your investment.
Rare Access to a HUD Insider Network
Our team includes a Key Principal who HUD contacts directly for consultation — an institutional advantage that accelerates approvals, reduces friction, and opens doors that most syndicators simply cannot access.
Speed to Close Through Expertise
Navigating HUD, LIHTC, state bond allocations, and municipal approvals simultaneously is complex. Our four decades of hands-on experience means we anticipate bottlenecks, move faster, and deliver projects on schedule — protecting your timeline and your returns.
Tax Credit Equity That Transforms the Stack
LIHTC credits can contribute equity to an eligible capital stack. Debt levels, carrying costs, operating results, and risk remain project-specific underwriting considerations.
End-to-End Execution, Not Just Advice
Prime Meridian’s work can span site selection, entitlements, financing coordination, construction oversight, and lease-up planning. Scope, responsibilities, approvals, and results are defined project by project.
“We don't just structure deals — we engineer outcomes. Every project is built to deliver measurable returns, lasting community value, and the kind of execution our investors can rely on for decades.”
