Saint Joseph Community LLC

Saint Joseph Community Land Trust (SJCLT) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization established in 2002 to address the rising housing costs and their detrimental effects on the social fabric and sustainability of communities around Lake Tahoe. As a community land trust, SJCLT operates on a model of dual ownership, retaining ownership of land while selling homes to income-qualified buyers under a 99-year ground lease.

The organization emphasizes perpetual affordability through resale restrictions in its ground leases, ensuring homes remain accessible to future generations. Community participation is integral to SJCLT, with a board of directors that includes low and moderate-income beneficiaries and community representatives.
