CJ Lintner

CJ serves as Vice President of Development at KCG Companies, a vertically integrated full-service affordable housing firm based in Indianapolis. In this role CJ is focused on new development opportunities across Texas and Iowa for KCG.

Since joining the firm in 2017 he’s held various positions within the firm, participating in over $300M in affordable housing development and nearly $400M in overall multifamily investments. Prior to KCG, CJ worked for the Indiana University School of Medicine’s Center for Health Innovation & Implementation Science – taking evidence-based practices invented by IU School of Medicine Staff from white paper to mass-market. Resolving socioeconomic disparities has always been a deep, driving motivation for CJ – affordable housing combines his passion for entrepreneurship with a desire to truly build a better future for those around him.

Thanks to exposure to several different State Housing Tax Credit Programs, CJ has worked to close deals in KCG’s portfolio utilizing an array of creative financing methods with projects utilizing Federal and State LIHTC, 4% LIHTC + Bond Financing, Historic and Brownfield Credits, HOME, Locally Awarded CDBG Disaster Relief Funds, Project Based Section 8 Contracts and a variety of HUD financing. Community-centric development, tailored to local housing issues, is the core focus for CJ in sourcing new opportunities with nearly every community investment to date involving strategic partnership with a local government entity and/or a local nonprofit. While KCG focuses primarily on ground up development, his experience with the firm also includes renovations of HUD properties and converting abandoned and unutilized industrial sites, mills and former educational facilities into multifamily housing.
