Employee Growth

Employee growth and continued learning is one of our priorities. We provide opportunities for paid internal and external trainings and certifications so that our team can build new skills. We also encourage staff to continue their education through our education reimbursement program.

Company Growth

Based in Rancho Cucamonga, California, National CORE is one of the nation’s largest, and fastest-growing, developers of affordable housing, managing more than 10,000 affordable family, senior and market-rate apartment homes in California, Florida, and Texas. With dozens of new developments currently in our pipeline and ambitions to double our housing portfolio over the next five years, you can be a part of our success story as we continue to provide much-needed affordable housing. As we have grown over the past 30-plus years, National CORE has remained committed to maintaining our small, family business feel, where all employees are respected, valued and heard.

Some of National CORE’s notable recent milestones include:

  • Repeatedly earning an A+ credit rating from Standard and Poor’s (S&P), one of the nation’s foremost providers of credit ratings. As only the second affordable housing developer in the nation to receive such a rating, National CORE can take advantage of new, non-traditional financing pathways for developments, continuing to grow our impact.
  • In 2022, National CORE issued $100 million in Series 2022 Social Bonds to accelerate the development of critically needed affordable housing. Serving 30,000 residents, National CORE strives to be a launching pad, not a landing pad, for families struggling financially.
