McFadden joins CalHFA as it looks to expand its affordable housing finance offerings
The California Housing Finance Agency announced that its Board of Directors has appointed Katherine McFadden to serve as CalHFA’s Director of Multifamily Programs.
She takes over the important leadership position at a time when the Agency is looking to broaden its affordable housing reach, even as it has already provided $3.4 billion in financing over the past two fiscal years.
McFadden comes to CalHFA after spending more than six years at Jamboree Housing Corporation, one of the leading nonprofit affordable housing developers in California, where she served as Vice President over Northern California. McFadden brings more than three decades of experience in real estate development, housing finance and supportive services, including senior roles at Domus Development, the Tenderloin Neighborhood Development Corporation and USA Properties Fund. She also served in local government at the Sacramento Housing and Redevelopment Agency (SHRA) and previously consulted for CalHFA in 2014 and 2015.
McFadden will start at CalHFA in early 2026.
