Background 

In March of 2017, the Housing Authority of the County of San Bernardino (HACSB) purchased the former Queen’s Motel, originally comprised of 60-units, for the purpose of converting the building into a permanent supportive housing complex for the chronic homeless. The City partnered with HACSB by providing financial assistance in the form of a loan in the amount of $1,509,505 as reimbursement of acquisition costs. The building, now named Desert Haven, has been rehabilitated and converted into a 31-unit single or double occupancy apartment complex. HACSB will make the units affordable through the use of housing vouchers, with rent not to exceed 30% of a resident’s adjusted gross income.

Desert Haven residents have been identified and pre-qualified by HACSB and will have access to community amenities. Desert Haven consistently remains fully leased.   Property Management is being provided by Beacon Property Management.  Beacon has been delivering superior service throughout the Inland Empire and Southern California. Well-known for outstanding quality and reliability, Beacon Property Management has grown into one of the region’s top property management firms. 

Behavioral Health Services are being provided by Stars Behavioral Health Group.  Stars Behavioral Health Group has more than 45 locations and offer over 50 specialized public mental health programs and a wide array of community-based support services in 10 counties.
