[ About ]

Longview deploys capital to develop land into purpose-built rental housing designed for long-term ownership. As developers and builders, we work from the ground up—owning the land, designing in-house, and controlling cost, quality, and risk from day one.

Our work spans three complementary asset classes: Lot & Loft for small-footprint density housing, Field & Frame for rural rental homes built on land-first principles, and Block & Main for walkable, village-scale multifamily.

The focus is simple—durable housing, consistent cash flow, and disciplined long-term holds. We’re not chasing exits. We’re building assets meant to last.

Asset Classes

Field & Frame

Field & Frame is a land-first rental model rooted in rural and agricultural contexts. We acquire and hold land, then work directly with local planning and zoning authorities to design low-impact rental housing that preserves open space and the character of the surrounding landscape. Homes are compact by design, emphasizing efficient footprints and durable materials.

These rentals serve growing families and working households seeking clean, comfortable homes with room to live—space for gardens, small animals, and open views—without the burden of oversized rural houses. The tenant profile supports longer stays and stable demand.

From an ownership perspective, Field & Frame prioritizes controlled development risk and long-term performance. By combining land ownership, restrained design, and durable construction, this asset class delivers rental housing intended to be held and operated long term.

Lot & Loft

Lot & Loft focuses on small-footprint, detached rental housing designed to add density without sacrificing livability. We identify infill and edge-of-town lots and work within local zoning frameworks to develop vertical homes that fit their sites and surrounding neighborhoods. Design is handled in-house with draftsmen and architects, allowing for efficient layouts, controlled construction costs, and durable execution.

These homes are built up rather than spread out, using narrow footprints, private entries, and proven materials that support long-term ownership. The result is rental housing that feels residential, not transient—serving tenants who value privacy, functionality, and proximity to work and daily amenities.

Lot & Loft is built for durability and demand. Thoughtful density, disciplined development, and straightforward construction support stable occupancy and long-term relevance across market cycles.

Block & Main

Block & Main is walkable, village-scale urban multifamily developed in coordination with city planners and zoning authorities. We acquire infill sites and develop three-story buildings with 10–15 units designed to fit established neighborhoods. Design emphasizes pedestrian access and durable materials.

These rentals serve working professionals and small households prioritizing proximity to employment and services. The tenant profile supports stable occupancy and consistent urban demand.

From an ownership perspective, Block & Main requires disciplined site selection and municipal coordination. By controlling development from acquisition through construction, this asset class delivers urban rental housing built to be held long term.
