City Ventures, LLC

City Ventures is a privately held real estate development and homebuilding company headquartered in Irvine, California, with operations also based in San Francisco. Founded in 2009, the company's core mission is to reposition underutilized real estate into residential housing, focusing on supply-constrained coastal urban infill areas and high-demand suburban locations across California.

The company specializes in building new residential communities, offering a range of housing types including single-family homes, townhomes, condominiums, lofts, and mixed-use developments. A key differentiator for City Ventures is its commitment to sustainable design, incorporating energy-efficient systems and solar power into every home it builds, aiming to be California's leading builder of solar-powered, ecologically responsible residences.

City Ventures has been recognized for its achievements, including being named 2023 Builder of the Year by Builder & Developer magazine and receiving the "Best Infill Community" award at the 2025 Building Industry Association of Southern California MAME Awards. The company recently celebrated the grand opening of its Parkview community in Livermore in July 2026 and continues to expand its footprint with new developments across California. Leadership includes Co-Chairmen Craig Atkins and Mark Buckland, CEO Phil Kerr, CFO Scott Homan, and President of Homebuilding Natasha Zabaneh. In 2021, City Ventures secured a $250 million unsecured facility from major banks, a notable achievement for a private homebuilder, underscoring its strong financial health and growth trajectory.
