The Greenville Housing Fund is pleased to welcome Libba King as Vice President of Real Estate and Capital Markets, starting November 1, 2023.
King will lead and execute GHF’s real estate strategy, and coordinate GHF’s development partnerships and initiatives across the county, including those financed through the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit program. She will be integral to building an innovative community land trust program utilizing infill development to create and maintain affordable home ownership opportunities in Greenville’s Special Emphasis Neighborhoods.
Bryan Brown, GHF’s President and CEO, described King’s commitment to finding new affordable housing solutions and her enthusiasm for collaboration as clear from first contact.
“Libba’s impressive skill set, tenacity, and willingness to explore creative financing tools and partnerships will be invaluable in advancing our mission goals to preserve and increase the supply of safe, stable affordable housing choices for all of Greenville’s residents,” he said.
King brings a strong affordable housing development and preservation background, as well as portfolio management and land development experience, joining GHF after prior employment at Pacolet Milliken, Hudson Valley Property Group, and Goldman Sachs’ Urban Investment Group. She holds a joint BA/MA from Johns Hopkins University and has developed deep connections across the community through her volunteer work at Jasmine Road, Abundance Capital, and the Greenville Homeless Alliance.
“I am thrilled to join the Greenville Housing Fund team during an important time of growth and development in our community,” said King. “GHF’s dedicated staff and talented local partners play a critical role in transforming communities and lives locally through high-quality affordable housing creation and preservation. I look forward to using my passion for enacting positive change through development in a way that aligns so well with GHF’s mission and vision.”
