Headquartered in Newport Beach, California, JKV Capital was a significant national private investment firm that provided specialized local expertise. The company's primary focus was on single-family residential properties and investment management.

The company was a vertically integrated and diversified firm that handled acquisition, construction, property management, and sales of single-family homes in multiple U.S. markets.

The firm's key strengths lie in its experienced team, in-house capabilities, strategic partnerships, proprietary technology, and data-driven approach. Their collective experience spanned thousands of single-and multi-family rehabs and rentals nationwide. However, the company is no longer operating or raising funds.

Founded in 2017, JKV Capital aimed to meet the housing needs of working-class, middle-income workers by providing economical "workforce housing." They focused on acquiring, renovating, and either reselling or renting single-family homes in affordable, rapidly growing communities across the United States. According to the Urban Land Institute, "workforce housing" is housing for families earning between 60 and 120 percent of the area median household income (AMI).

These households typically included police officers, firefighters, teachers, healthcare workers, janitors, construction workers, retail service providers, government employees, social workers, and clerks. Often comprised of two-income households, they found it increasingly difficult to buy or rent housing in the communities where they worked.

JKV Capital's principals recognized a substantial gap in affordable and available housing for middle-income workers. Many of these workers struggled to find housing near their jobs due to salaries lagging behind rising living costs and a shortage of affordable housing in desirable locations. This situation often forced them to relocate to the outskirts, resulting in longer commutes, more traffic, and other challenges.
