NEWARK, N.J., March 9, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Community Asset Preservation Corporation and Ellavoz Impact Capital announced today the launch of the Ellavoz Neighborhood Homes Fund, a $50 million fund targeting single and multi-family residential affordable housing properties for rehabilitation or construction.

A key partner in the Fund is Community Asset Preservation Corporation (CAPC), the largest not-for-profit affordable housing developer in New Jersey.

Together with Ellavoz, we're ready to expand investments that provide equitable opportunities to build safe, healthy and affordable homes in underserved communities."

"Despite the pandemic, this is the fourth Fund launched by Ellavoz in the past 12 months," said Robert Hutchins, President and CEO of Ellavoz Impact Capital. "We are most excited by this multi-asset fund's vision of diversifying investments across many promising communities, 17 of which are in New Jersey. Additional communities are in New York, Florida and more to come. Our "shared values" investment strategy has been proven in our ESVOF I and II which were closed as of December 31, 2020."
