BH Properties, a privately held, vertically integrated, value-driven real estate investment firm headquartered in Los Angeles, has launched Haven Housing, a multifamily investment platform focused on acquiring, enhancing and operating both market-rate and affordable communities throughout the western U.S. The announcement coincides with the appointment of industry veteran Connor Mortland as managing director and head of affordable housing acquisitions, based in San Diego

The platform is seeded with 2,500 units, targeting A and B class properties in Texas, Arizona, Nevada, Oregon, Washington, Colorado and Utah.
Mortland brings nearly eight years of multifamily acquisition and asset management experience. Most recently, he served as SVP of investments at Avanath Capital Management, where he led the acquisition of over 4,300 units valued at more than $1 billion.
“Haven Housing allows us to operate with clarity and focus in the residential sector,” said Jim Brooks, president of BH Properties. “Connor’s appointment brings both leadership and depth to this platform. His proven track record in sourcing, acquiring, and managing affordable communities aligns perfectly with our growth strategy.”
