Overview

Langdon Park Capital is a Black-owned real estate investment firm dedicated to addressing the undersupply of high-quality housing in diverse communities across the United States. The firm specializes in acquiring, renovating, and operating affordable and workforce housing, aiming to generate strong financial returns while delivering lasting, measurable impact for residents and neighborhoods. Their experienced leadership team combines institutional investment discipline with cultural fluency and market insight, enabling them to source, execute, and operate investments that create long-term value for all stakeholders. The firm's investment strategy focuses on high-growth, historically underserved urban markets, targeting properties that can benefit from capital improvements and community-focused initiatives. They partner with mission-aligned nonprofit organizations to provide need-based social services for residents and engage top-tier service providers with strong local knowledge and a shared commitment to equitable economic opportunity. Their portfolio includes properties in Los Angeles, California, and Fort Washington, Maryland, with plans for further expansion. Langdon Park Capital's commitment to community-focused investments is exemplified by their acquisition of a 304-unit apartment complex in Fort Washington, Maryland, in 2022. This property, rebranded as Langdon Park at Fort Washington, is situated in a predominantly Black community, with most residents earning below 70% of the area median income. The firm has committed over $5 million for capital improvements at the property, including upgraded interiors, building exteriors, common areas, and the on-site community center. Additionally, they work with organizations to provide access to a range of social services, from financial education to workforce development support, aiming to preserve affordability while enhancing the quality of life for residents. Langdon Park Capital was founded in 2021 by CEO Malcolm Johnson, who leads a diverse, dynamic leadership team with expertise in real estate finance, asset management, impact investing, and M&A. The firm has received strategic investments from partners such as Eldridge and Kennedy Wilson, supporting its mission to create lasting social impact in historically underserved Black and Latino communities while generating strong returns for investors. Their approach is rooted in understanding the needs of these communities and delivering solutions that are both profitable and impactful, with a focus on creating value and opportunity inclusively, maintaining institutional scale with a community-focused approach, and fostering equitable partnerships to create broader impact.
