"Because of the rebounding housing market and ongoing creation of high-paying jobs in the Bay Area, we feel our footing is strong," Kliewer said.

Trumark's Vice President of Sales and Marketing, Mark Higgins said that condominiums will range in size from 500 to 1,500 square feet, depending on the location. The portfolio includes higher-end homes over $2 million as well as approachable market-rate housing under $500,000.

"We are looking at various amenities that appeal to this unique buyer, including personal bicycle-storage and tune-up facilities, onsite community art galleries, shared-vehicle parking and innovative outdoor spaces and uses," Higgins said.

Trumark Urban is an offshoot of Trumark Homes, which has raised more than $140 million in equity for single-family residences in suburban areas. Trumark Homes currently has 2,000 lots in pipeline in Northern and Southern California and "will continue to expand that brand," Nelson said.

Trumark Urban has a different focus, he said. "We've put together the opportunities, and we're aligning ourselves with equity partners who see the opportunity the way we do."
