Burbank Housing development process
“
I have enjoyed working with the entire staff at Burbank Housing, including John Lowry, the project managers, and the accounting staff. They are very knowledgeable and very responsive. We have worked with Burbank Housing on several rental projects as well as self-help housing projects and appreciate being able to work with a great professional team!

Vice President, Loan Administration Exchange Bank Santa Rosa Burbank Housing is one of the largest developers in Sonoma County with a diverse client base. At any given time, there are typically hundreds of homes in various stages of the development process. These homes are rental properties, first-time ownership communities, and often include special projects for a special population. This includes housing for farm workers, seniors, homeless and formerly homeless, emancipated foster youth and persons with disabilities. Burbank communities provide much needed affordable housing, and these developments also contribute significantly to the local economy. New developments are creating and retaining jobs related to construction. Existing properties utilize many business resources and create jobs in property management. The residents in our communities are better able to buy goods and services because they are living in stable and affordable housing, which helps drive the local economy. Burbank Housing’s Development Division carries out all phases of housing development.The predevelopment phase includes site identification, feasibility analysis, site acquisition, community acceptance, local government approvals and environmental clearances. The construction phase involves the funding of construction and permanent financing, as well as construction administration and oversight. Burbank Housing acts as general contractor for mutual self-help housing developments and contracts with local building contractors for construction of rental housing. The Development Process
