About Blueprint
Blueprint is a real estate operator headquartered in Los Angeles, CA. Blueprint operates in Los Angeles, California (LA), Portland, Oregon and San Francisco - Oakland Bay Area, California. Its investment focus is on Schools.
Blueprint is a full-service, non-profit real estate development and finance firm founded in 2004. Operating for 22 years as a specialized educational facilities platform, the organization maintains a multi-regional workforce of 11 to 50 professionals. The firm operates out of five major regional offices located in Los Angeles, California; Oakland, California; Seattle, Washington; Houston, Texas; and Colorado Springs, Colorado. The corporation concentrates its business model exclusively on providing turnkey facility solutions for Transitional Kindergarten through 12th grade (TK–12) charter schools. Its integrated operational framework spans the entire development lifecycle, including geographic site selection, architectural design, municipal permitting, construction management, complex financing, and long-term strategic real estate planning. The platform specializes in deploying philanthropic equity to provide low-cost capital, allowing charter school operators to preserve operational funding for classroom instruction rather than high facilities costs. The organization's geographical footprint targets under-resourced urban and suburban communities across the United States. Since its inception, Blueprint has successfully secured, financed, built, or renovated 112 school facilities, a capital deployment that has created 46,541 permanent school seats for students. To catalyze these institutional developments, the non-profit has raised and deployed 141 million dollars in philanthropic equity, structuring custom real estate arrangements that align with each school partner's long-term academic and enrollment growth trajectory.
