About Sunseri

Sunseri Construction, Inc. is a general contracting company with operations in California and Nevada.  Founded in the early 1970’s, Sunseri primarily serves organizations providing affordable multi-family and senior housing.  This mission has been realized with the construction of over ten thousand units of housing for low-income seniors, families, homeless individuals and people needing assistance.  We employ an average of 40 people throughout California.  With annual revenues averaging over seventy-five million, Sunseri has the depth of resources and a commitment to affordable and senior housing that will carry its mission forward for many years.

The company is led by Donny Lieberman, President and CEO.  Donny has been active in housing advocacy since the early 1980's and is a President Emeritus and Advisory Board Member of Brilliant Corners, a statewide nonprofit that serves thousands of Californians facing barriers to independent living.  Donny is also a member and contributor to numerous organizations, including:

Sunseri partners with its clients from the early stage of project inception.  We assist the project team with budgets, scheduling and value engineering.  These pre-construction services help define the Owner’s program and control their budget.  We understand the funding intricacies our clients face and have sophisticated systems in place to manage wages, hiring, and compliance.  Sunseri has long standing and excellent relationships with HUD, CalMortgage, CalHFA, SHRA, HCD, USDA Rural Development and with the major lenders servicing affordable housing providers.

Sunseri supports hiring practices to promote disadvantaged businesses and individuals.  We are proud of our record of success over the past two decades in achieving both MBE/WBE participation as well as Section 3 hiring on our projects.
