CLIENTS & REFERENCES

chad_solvieMartha & Mary had heard good things about SRI before we agreed to proceed in our journey in developing the Village Green Senior Apartments. However, the SRI team surpassed our already high expectations as we developed and completed that particular joint venture. The integrity, patience, and respect they gave to our organization and our community was very impressive. The project has been impactful for the north Kitsap community and has been a very proud extension of our mission in the region. I would look forward to working with SRI again if such a mutually beneficial project were to exist.
Chad Solvie, CEO, Martha & Mary Lutheran Services
shelter resourcesAs an architectural firm dedicated to community housing solutions, we consider ourselves fortunate to have developed a professional relationship with Shelter Resources, Inc. Len Brennan and his staff are committed to this type of work; affordable housing. SRI is dedicated and diligent in their efforts to put projects together. Their work ethic is noteworthy; they are thorough and accurate and maintain a true “Team Spirit” from beginning design through construction completion. I believe it is SRI’s integrity that continues to bring repeat clients.
Sara Bergsund, Principal, Bergsund Delaney Architecture & Planning
"shelter resources "The Arcand Company and Columbia Housing Corporation (later sold to PNC Bank) worked with Len Brannen and Shelter Resources on several Pacific Northwest properties commencing in the 1980’s; and continue to work with them on the disposition and repositioning of those and other investments. In my experience, Len and his SRI team are amongst the best in the industry; extensive knowledge and persistence to accomplish that which others cannot. I endorse Len and Shelter Resources to anyone who is considering working them in any capacity.
Bob Arcand, Founder of The Arcand Company and Columbia Housing Companies
Terry-Campbell2Having shared offices and partnered on deals with Len over the past twenty five years I have witnessed the growth of Shelter Resources first hand. Led by his tenacity and drive to succeed Shelter has become a recognized and highly regarded player in the competitive arena of affordable housing. He and his team have developed the patience and “never quit” attitude necessary to continually pursue funding sources for various housing proposals. It is not uncommon for the development process to run four to five years and involve several funding cycles. Through it all this group stays on task to the closing table. Len has been an excellent partner through many complicated transactions and stressful situations. His consistent calm demeanor and compromising approach to difficult issues is always appreciated by my partner and I at Campbell-Hogue.
Terry Campbell, Campbell-Hogue & Associates, Inc.
Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Inc. has provided financing to Shelter Resources through several tax-exempt affordable housing bond issues during the past five years. These financings have tended to be complex and SRI has always been responsive and flexible as we worked through various challenges to get to the closing table. We thoroughly enjoy working with Len and the whole SRI team and look forward to many more successful closings in the future.
Dan Dill, Managing Director, Stifel Nicolaus & Company Incorporated
Porter,-Philip3Enterprise looks forward to continued investment alongside Len Brannen and his team at SRI. We’ve found SRI to be thoughtful, creative, and flexible with the development process both meeting the various objectives of the affordable housing programs and, most importantly, providing quality homes for the residents of their communities.
Philip Porter, VP, Syndication, Originator, Enterprise Community Investment
Warter,-GreggCE & C, Inc. has been building projects for Shelter Resources, Inc. for several years. They are a great team to work with on the important projects they pursue.

Dixon,-TomBoston Capital has completed numerous transactions with SRI and their performance and professionalism continues to exceed our expectations. For years, SRI has had a strong presence & stellar reputation in the Pacific Northwest affordable development community and we are proud to have them as partners. We hope to continue this relationship with Len and SRI for many years to come.
Tom Dixon, Boston Capital
In smaller cities, new development can have a particularly significant positive impact-providing new jobs, infrastructure, new and upgraded affordable housing, and improved lives. From Astoria to Yelm we have appreciated the opportunity to work with Shelter Resources and their development teams on successful, lasting projects.
Chuck Weinstock, Vice President, Chase Bank – Community Development Banking
Duren,-SusanThe WCRA was formed in 1992 and in 1994 started its long standing relationship with Shelter Resources Inc. (“SRI”). Over the years, we have made many long term loans for affordable housing apartment buildings that SRI developed. Our partnership continues to this day with financing across the state of Washington providing loans for SRI to create quality housing for their own account and others. We consider SRI a great developer and WCRA partner.
Susan Duren, President, Washington Community Reinvestment Association

With 35 years of affordable housing development SRI has engaged many relationships over the years, including non-profit housing providers and public agencies with whom we work with closely to facilitate financing for each project situation. Below is a listing of non-profit partners and public agencies with whom we have positively engaged in affordable housing efforts.
