Virtual Roundtable on Finance: Funding Small-Scale Development in the East Bay
Virtual Roundtable on Finance: Funding Small-Scale Development in the East Bay
May 15, 2025 | 12:00–1:30 PM PT | Online
Financing is often one of the biggest hurdles for small-scale housing developers. Whether you’re exploring your first ADU or preparing a multi-unit infill project, understanding how to fund your vision is critical. This Virtual Roundtable on Finance is part of the East Bay Small Development Incubator, created in response to the questions and interest raised during our February and March events.
You’ll hear directly from local financial institutions and experienced developers about:
What lenders look for in small development projects
Common barriers to financing and how to address them
Alternatives to conventional funding pathways
How to build relationships that unlock future opportunities
The event is designed to be interactive and informative—whether you’re just starting out or already have a project in motion.
This roundtable is part of a broader initiative from Build It Green, in collaboration with IncDev and StopWaste, to support local builders and unlock the potential of small-scale, climate-conscious housing across the East Bay. Through a yearlong series of events and trainings, the East Bay Small Development Incubator is building the knowledge, networks, and momentum needed to make this kind of development possible.
Don’t miss this opportunity to ask your questions, make connections, and take the next step.
