Put California's affordable-housing data to work
A living directory of properties, availability, and the organizations behind them — refreshed and audited daily, not scraped once and left to rot.
Affordable-housing data is fragmented and goes stale fast
It lives in scattered TCAC spreadsheets, agency PDFs, and one-off developer sites — out of date the moment it's published. That friction slows everything downstream: placing people in homes, researching gaps, and making the case to funders.
Most “housing databases” are one-time scrapes. Ours is a living system.
The reason data goes stale is simple: most directories are scraped once and never truly maintained. We built the opposite.
- Built from one-time website scrapes and manual spreadsheets
- Months — or years — out of date
- A flat list of listings, nothing connected
- Riddled with duplicates, dead links, and missed renames
- Breaks silently when a source site changes, and quietly rots
- Continuous automated pipelines from authoritative sources
- Refreshed and audited every single day
- Listings + organizations + how they all connect
- Deduplicated, resyndication-reconciled, contact-verified
- Monitored and self-healing, with daily integrity checks
One living source for the whole field
Affordable Housing Partners brings California's properties, their availability, the organizations behind them, and the relationships between them into a single structured, searchable directory — and keeps it current automatically.
The automation engine
This isn't a static report that rots. Daily automated pipelines keep the data fresh with near-zero manual upkeep — so what you see today reflects the field today.
- Funding deadlines from Grants.gov + the CA Grants Portal
- Job postings crawled from developers' own career pages
- Property renames and rehab resyndications reconciled
- Industry news ingested continuously
- Building photos and contact details enriched

Security, audits & privacy
Current data is only useful if it's also dependable and responsibly handled. Here's how we keep it that way.
Daily audits & data integrity
Every dataset is rebuilt and re-verified by automated jobs each day, with integrity checks that stop bad or empty source data from overwriting good records. Every run is logged.
Security
Served over HTTPS/TLS with hardened security headers, on a managed Postgres database with row-level security. Admin actions sit behind authenticated, role-based access.
PII & privacy
The public directory is built from public records and public business contacts — no tenant or applicant data. Where individuals use personal tools, that data is private to each user, protected by row-level security, never shown publicly, and never sold.
A roadmap we'd refine together
These are the directions we're building toward — and the priorities a partner's needs would help shape.
Let's explore a partnership
We're looking for partners to pilot this with their network, integrate the data, and help fund its expansion — with a supportive-housing matching engine as a clear, fundable first milestone.
