Tricon Opens Built-to-Rent Community in Riverside County, Increasing Housing Supply for California Families

Tricon Winchester brings 180 high-quality, professionally managed single-family rental homes to address housing needs in the region

Opening marks Tricon’s 8th BTR community in California, part of an investment pipeline of 5,500 homes delivered or under development nationwide

Winchester, California (March 25, 2026) – Tricon, a Blackstone Real Estate portfolio company, today announced the grand opening of Tricon Winchester, a premier built-to-rent (BTR) community in Riverside County, California. The 180-home development offers families the benefits of single-family living at a monthly cost significantly lower than homeownership, supported by professional on-site management. Tricon Winchester is part of the company’s broader effort to expand access to single-family rentals in quality neighborhoods.

Tricon Winchester was developed in partnership with Foremost Pacific Group on vacant land, transforming an underutilized site into much-needed housing for families in the Inland Empire. As the U.S. faces an estimated 4–5 million home shortfall, demand for attainable, high-quality housing has grown. Tricon Winchester was designed to meet that need for households seeking single-family living close to schools, jobs, and everyday services. With this opening, Tricon has launched 8 new BTR communities in California and invested in a pipeline of 5,500 new rental community homes delivered or under development nationwide.

The community offers three- and four-bedroom homes featuring:

  • Spacious bedrooms with oversized closets, attached two-car garages, and fully fenced backyards
  • Gourmet kitchens with luxury countertops, stainless steel appliances, and dishwashers
  • Smart-home technology with automatic thermostat control and keyless front door entry

“Families want the space and stability of a single-family home, but in today’s market, the monthly cost of owning often puts that out of reach,” said Andrew Carmody, Senior Managing Director at Tricon. “In the Inland Empire, owning a home can cost roughly 40% more per month than renting a comparable home. Tricon helps to bridge that gap. At Tricon Winchester, residents can enjoy a new, professionally managed home with a yard, garage, and modern finishes, while maintaining the financial flexibility that renting provides. Tricon is building homes in places where families want to be, near strong schools and job markets, because where you live is foundational to your success and wellbeing.”

“Blackstone and Tricon are committed to expanding and enhancing America’s housing supply by delivering thousands of new homes within high-quality, professionally managed built-to-rent communities,” said David O’Neill, Managing Director at Blackstone Real Estate. “Blackstone Real Estate and its partners have invested over $92 million to help bring Tricon Winchester to life, enabling more families to access the space, amenities, and neighborhood advantages of single-family-living – and at a monthly cost that is meaningfully lower than buying in today’s market.”

“From the beginning, our focus was on creating homes that residents would feel proud to live in, said Andrew Murphy, President at Woodbridge Pacific Group. This site has long been vacant, giving us the opportunity to thoughtfully introduce new housing to the community. Together with Tricon, we prioritized livable floorplans, private outdoor space, and integrated smart home technology designed to make life more convenient for residents.”

“Addressing the housing shortage requires bold action and a clear vision for our communities,” said Supervisor Chuck Washington. “I am proud to welcome 180 new high-quality homes that expand access and create meaningful housing opportunities for our residents. This development represents an important step toward ensuring Riverside County remains a place where people can live, work, and thrive.”

Tricon Winchester is supported by Tricon’s dedicated Resident App and on-site management teams that simplify day-to-day living. The community is also located near well-regarded schools, giving families access to strong educational options within the Inland Empire.

The Value of BTR Communities

Tricon’s communities are designed to expand access to single-family living, offering an alternative for families who are seeking single-family living but are not in a position to buy. Research from Harvard economist Dr. Raj Chetty highlights the critical role neighborhoods play in shaping long-term wellbeing, including future earnings, education, and health outcomes. Tricon’s BTR communities reflect this approach by placing residents within reach of strong schools, amenities, and jobs, providing opportunities without the upfront financial burden of homeownership.

Tricon’s Resident Bill of Rights

Tricon is proudly resident-centric, offering an industry-leading Bill of Rights for families in our communities. This is a first-of-its-kind approach among single-family rental housing providers in the United States, which outlines Tricon’s commitment to providing quality, move-in-ready homes with caring and reliable service.
