DEVELOPERS – Have You Tapped Into the Hidden Treasures of HUD-Insured Projects?

A

re you aware of the potential tax refunds, accelerated tax deductions and low equity requirements that HUD-insured projects may provide developers? If not, you may be missing out on an aspect of the real estate industry that can provide significant rewards. According to Josh Northcutt, a partner with Tidwell Group, “Taxes due on developer fees can be significant. As developers grow their LIHTC asset base, they receive substantial developer fees that create taxable income. If a developer isn’t aware of the ways in which to decrease taxes on that income, they may be unnecessarily – and significantly - cutting their profits.” Most affordable housing developers are comfortable within the subsector of the real estate industry. They understand the complex rules and tricks of the trade related to winning affordable housing projects in the states in which they operate. Developers use internal or third party management companies who spend countless hours ensuring the projects are compliant with the rigorous and complex rules tied to the Low-income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) industry. And lastly, developers are generally well-versed in locating the land for affordable housing deals that will gain enough points and support for a tax credit allocation. However, the business of winning deals for the development of affordable housing properties can offer affordable housing developers much more. The Tax And Non-tax Benefits: “You might ask why a HUD-insured project?” says Northcutt. “There are tax as well as non-tax benefits that may not be readily clear to those who are not aware of the positive impact of HUD-insured development,” he said. The non-tax benefits include the fact that the debt is qualified non-recourse debt. This means that if the financials of the project erode, the keys can be handed back to HUD without recourse to the developer. This offers additional risk protection to developers who may be looking for additional security. Second, HUD will finance a large portion of the project so the equity requirement, depending on a few factors, can be quite low compared to a typical market rate product. This translates in cash flow that is less constrained than it otherwise would be

and a greater ability on the part of the developer to fund the development. Third, the equity requirement necessary to complete a HUD deal is open to more sources than a typical tax credit deal. Many HUD developers have built a strong “friends and family” base of investors to help fund the gap. In addition, many developers are becoming more savvy and letting the existing land owner contribute the property and receive a percentage of ownership of the entity in order to minimize the upfront cash outlay. Another benefit is that HUD-insured projects can make for great long-term hold assets that can create significant value inside of a larger portfolio should the developer decide to cash out one day. What about the tax benefits of HUD-insured projects? “Many in the industry know about and understand cost segregation as it has become a hot topic when discussing year 15 strategies surrounding tax credit properties,” said Northcutt. These cost segregations are prime for a HUD or market-rate project as they are performed once the project is built. The benefit is that the cost segregation can move up to 40% of the depreciable basis into 15 and 5 year life assets. The impact of this is the acceleration of depreciation deductions that the developer would have had to otherwise wait much longer than 15 years to offset against taxable income. In addition, currently, there are still bonus depreciation opportunities to increase these tax benefits into the first few years of a project. How? Bonus depreciation currently allows developers to deduct 50% of the adjusted basis of a project right off the bat. The bonus depreciation percentage decreases to 40% in 2018 and 30% in 2019, so developers will want to move quickly to use this tax benefit. This significant deduction becomes an offset to taxable income thereby lowering taxes of the owners in the early years of the project. Bonus depreciation can be so significant that it creates excess deductions. Accordingly, if the developer is in a net operating loss position, he/she may qualify to carry these losses back three years and receive tax refunds on previous taxes paid or use the operating losses going forward to offset taxable developer fees to be earned in future years. It is clear to see why growing a real estate portfolio that generates strong cash flow,

creates significant tax savings, and has a lower up-front equity requirement would be undeniably attractive to LIHTC developers. What About Timing (And The Suggested Three Year Cycle)? What is so special about timing the building of a HUDinsured project every 3 years? There is no magic bullet around this number although there are a few factors to keep in mind. One downside to the HUD process is the time it takes to go from pre-development through the HUD approval process. HUD has taken steps to make this process more efficient. In the past few years, however, for most affordable housing developers who are accustomed to their particular state application and approval process, this can seem like a much more daunting task. If the process takes 18 months to arrive at the firm commitment stage, then a project is reaching completion about every 3 years from beginning to end. At the same time, the bulk of the tax savings generated from the cost segregation analysis is created in the first few years of the project. Therefore, a developer aspiring to continue to reap the depreciation benefits of cost segregation would want another project ready to come on-line in order to continue deferring taxes further down the road for as long as possible. Finally, HUD-insured projects have become very marketable as Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) have come back into the market and are interested in purchasing the HUD-insured assets due to their associated low interest rates and stable cash flow. Under circumstances where developers need to liquidate part of their portfolio, it is much more feasible to move one of these projects versus dealing with the exit on a LIHTC deal which typically does not generate much cash on the back end of the deal anyways. Keys To Making The Deal Work: “Finding a HUD-approved lender that you can successfully work with and that you can develop a long-term relationship with is key,” said Northcutt. There are many highly qualified lenders in the market that will be very interested in meeting and discussing the various stages of the process with a developer. Further, they are generally more than willing to walk the developer through HUD’s sometimes rigorous process. Just as critical to ensuring that the tax and non-tax benefits are achieved is a developer’s decision to engage a CPA that knows and understands not only the upfront HUD rules and regulations but who is also experienced with the long-term rules. Otherwise, missteps can happen along the way that could preclude or eliminate the tax savings that developers could otherwise benefit from.

IN SUMMARY, the tax and non-tax benefits of HUDinsured projects can make a significant and positive difference for developers. Being aware of the potential tax refunds, accelerated tax deductions and lower equity requirements that HUD-insured projects can provide is a step towards making such benefits a reality.

Houston’s REVIVAL

Allen Parkway Village before and after

HOW AFFORDABLE HOUSING BROUGHT OUR CITY BACK TO LIFE

T

he Super Bowl highlighted Houston’s health — a downtown ablaze with vitality, new construction and glittering amenities. But she hasn’t always been so strong. And most Houstonians have no idea that affordable housing helped her heal. In the mid-‘90s, Mayor Bob Lanier led a trauma team huddled around a patient in atrial fibrillation. In AFib, the heart continues to beat but in quivering or irregular patterns that can lead to blood clots, stroke or heart failure. Houston’s heart — the central city within the 610 loop — was quivering, and, if that vital organ failed, other systems would follow. Downtown property values were in decline, midtown was long lifeless and more people were moving out of the loop than in. The defibrillator paddles used to shock the heart were the Rice Hotel restoration and revitalization of Allen Parkway Village. The Rice Hotel (see photos at right) had been the hub of downtown Houston for decades. It has been visited by 6 US Presidents. The ground it stands on was the site of the Capitol of the Republic of Texas from 18371842. For decades, Houston’s power brokers met there to chart the city’s political and economic trajectory. Yet, it had been vacant for almost 17 years. Numerous private developers tried to resurrect it, but all had failed — the numbers just didn’t work.

Over $5 million in asbestos abatement torpedoed pro formas. Allen Parkway Village (see facing page for before and after pictures) — a 1,000unit public housing complex a stone’s throw west of downtown Houston — had been mired in litigation for over 15 years and only 16 units were occupied. The legendary Lenwood Johnson, a resident of APV, waged an effective legal campaign to ensure the city didn’t sell the prime site to commercial developers. Both blighted buildings had real and symbolic influence on Houston’s built environment. Lanier used to say: “The Rice Hotel stands as a symbol of urban futility. Rice Hotel before and after

TEXAS AFFORDABLE HOUSI NG M AGAZI NE

It sends a message to the development community that these old vacant buildings can’t be put back into productive use. We need to save it!” Regarding APV — he often said he wanted it torn down and rebuilt, but he “didn’t want to be bothered with the details until the bulldozers were running.” The trauma team included some of the brightest legal and real estate minds in the city’s history. It was led by Michael Stevens — a brilliant developer and CEO who volunteered to serve as Lanier’s housing and revitalization czar and included legendary public finance attorney Bob Randolph, Downtown Management District CEO Bob Eury and developer Randall

Davis. I was a junior member of the team. As a young attorney, I had the education of a lifetime serving as Stevens’ right-hand man during this historic time of intensive intervention. Randall was chosen because his restoration of the old Hogg Palace was the first successful conversion of an empty dilapidated downtown building into cool new loft apartments. His Hogg hypothesis proved true — there was significant demand for downtown Houston living, so he was eager to tackle the Rice. But Randall couldn’t make the numbers work alone either. Michael and Bob determined that a public/private partnership was needed to save the Rice. It involved: buying the Rice through the Houston Housing Finance Corporation (HHFC) to get a sales tax break on construction materials; creating a tax increment reinvestment zone to fund a reimbursement agreement in which the HHFC fronted $9 million for the asbestos abatement and other expenditures but could be repaid from the potential future property tax revenues generated from the renovated hotel; utilizing a $4.5 million historic tax credit; a $20 million construction loan from Bank United; and a $7.5 million HUD Section 108 loan. It took 18 months to conceive — Michael called it the real estate finance equivalent of planning the Gulf War.

And few realize that 62 of the 312 units are affordable. The HHFC affordability restrictions are 100 percent AMI for units with one to two residents and 115 percent of AMI for units with three or more tenants. I was in virtually every meeting involved. In one, an inch-thick $20 million loan agreement was dropped on the table in front of Randall. I was alarmed to see him grab a pen to execute. “Don’t you think you should have your lawyers look at that before you sign?” I cried. He replied: “What for, the bank’s not gonna change anything.” And sign he did! He is one gutsy Texan. On another occasion, we met with Mayor Lanier one early Saturday morning in his penthouse high atop the Huntington in River Oaks. The honorable Mayor was still in his bathrobe. “We need a TIRZ to get this done Mayor,” said Michael. “Ok, then,” the Mayor replied, “but we haven’t had much time to study it, so make it as small as you can and still keep it legal.” While the Rice turnaround seemed intuitively

necessary to energize downtown, it was harder for me to see the connection to APV. But when we tried to woo high-end multi-family developers to midtown, we learned that many of them were reluctant to be pioneers in the stagnant area between downtown Houston and the Medical Center, because they were uncertain about the disposition of the public housing project. Would it remain 1,000 units of troubled public housing or was there a plan for revitalization? Until they knew the fate of APV, they were not going to risk capital in such close proximity. We worked with the Housing Authority of the City of Houston to devise a redevelopment plan that cut the density in half, restored many of the original units and committed to replace the lost APV units with scattered site affordable housing. That project involved two HUD HOPE VI grants totaling $57.8 million together with substantial Low-income Housing Tax Credit equity to finance the deal. I recall watching the sunset the day when federal marshals peacefully escorted

Lenwood Johnson and some punk rocker kids off the premises. They unceremoniously climbed into an old Toyota Corolla and drove off into the sunset — ending years of litigation and marking the beginning of the redevelopment of what is now monikered the “Historic Oaks of Allen Parkway Village.” The two-pronged shock to Houston’s heart restored her rhythm. Midtown has absolutely boomed. Downtown steadily regained its swagger. The Rice and APV restorations were followed by the development of the Astros, Texans and Rocket’s stadia and the Hilton America’s Convention Center Hotel. Discovery Green followed as did another new convention center hotel and the expanded George R. Brown Convention Center. The near absence of downtown residential has now given way to approximately 4,500 new units of high-end homes either completed, under construction or in the pipeline. And Mayor Parker led the transformation of Buffalo Bayou and other neglected waterways

from eyesores to world-class amenities threading throughout Houston. Without invasive public/ private surgery involving the city, HUD, the HHFC, the Housing Authority of the City of Houston and a developer with nerves of steel — Houston may have flatlined. And contrary to TV show medical drama depictions, defibrillators don’t work when the heart completely stops — they can restore an irregular heartbeat not one that is non-existent. Critics conjecture: “All that would have happened anyway without government involvement.” But those of us who were there know that if we hadn’t hit the paddles and called “clear” the patient would have gone down fast. Consider Detroit — it’s far better to shock the vital organ while still beating than risk open heart surgery later. The heart of the Bayou City beats strong today because visionary triage informed action — and affordable housing development tools ignited the recovery.

A stable home and a family environment is all the more critical to the physical and emotional healing of those veterans who suffer from combat related injuries, visible and invisible. This is the most fundamental need faced by these deserving men and women and the most critical in their survival in an unfamiliar civilian world. Without a community and a proper place to call home the veteran faces the possibility of what is his/her greatest fear – Isolation

The Valor Club

The Valor Club is the first master planned community specifically designed and dedicated to the life-needs of veterans and their families by providing safe, accessible and affordable housing in a carefully designed environment where they can… LIVE, PLAY & THRIVE. LIVE – Finding high quality, affordable and safe housing suitable for a family in a neighborhood of other veteran families is the first step toward the future. The base of Maslov’s Hierarchy of Basic Human Needs starts here. PLAY – Competitive sports and fitness create a remarkably therapeutic atmosphere conducive to open and unfiltered communication among veterans and their comrades. The Valor Club community includes an adapted golf course, extensive hike and bike trails connected to dozens of miles of additional trails, a comprehensive fitness center, a community pool with specially designed access for persons with disabilities and The Valordome – an olympic/paralympic style sports facility for training and competition of all manner or sports including adapted sports. THRIVE – Having checked the “Live Box” and rediscovering your center through the therapeutic benefits of sports and fitness, one can focus on the future – job, olympics, service to others – whatever life offers, it is all within reach again. This is the point and purpose of this entire effort. The community will include educational and job training opportunities to help inspire and prepare. These are resilient, purposeful and driven folks. Helping these remarkable men and women rise above the things that would otherwise hold them back will allow them to thrive.

and resources in the transitional process that veterans and their families face. Helping them face their new challenges at this level, on this scale, will have a profoundly positive affect for generations to come. Housing Options The Valor Club will include a variety of high quality, affordably priced housing options to meet the needs of veterans and their families. It will exist as a familyoriented, master-planned community, dedicated to easing and promoting the process of transitioning from military life to a successful and fulfilling life outside the military. MASTER’S RANCH APARTMENTS High quality, gated apartment homes are available to assist veterans while they find permanent housing. Master’s Ranch will feature 252 budget-friendly apartments that will range in size from 750 sq. ft. to nearly 1,200 sq. ft., with monthly rents ranging from $650 to $975. Veterans with disabilities will have the choice of 84-ground floor units that feature a complete array of accommodations, including those for vision and hearing impairments.

is the foundation of our mission. This housing has to be of good quality, it has to be safe and it must not be a financial burden. To this end, more than 100 three bedroom, single-family homes will be available in a gated, family-oriented neighborhood, complete with traditional backyards, front yards and two car garages. These newly built homes will be available to veteran families at a price right around $1,500 per month, and they can live here throughout their transition (typically 3-4 years). RETIREMENT HOUSING Our research shows that the community would not be complete without the influence of our senior veterans. Those military men and women that separated long ago have perspective and experience that will be essential for the younger generation to learn. They stand as a testament to the simple fact that “you can do this because I did it”. We will invite them into the community with well-built, affordable, age-restricted housing adjacent to the family neighborhood. We look forward to seeing the social dynamic between our retirees and the children of the younger families blossom, as well as the familial interaction between the generations.

SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES Providing high-quality, suitable and affordable housing in which veterans and their families can flourish

Of these, “Live” is the first and most important. The housing dilemma is one of the greatest challenges young veteran families face today. Living with friends, family or in substandard housing are not sustainable scenarios, which create overwhelming pressure and hardships. This fundamental need must be met before veterans can begin their journeys toward selfactualization. The premise of The Valor Club community begins with well built, accessible and affordable neighborhood housing that is safe and secure. Without an affordable and dignified place to call home, the Veteran and his/her family are subject to overwhelming pressure and the family often pays the toll. Without a safe and secure home, the preoccupation with resolving this most fundamental need prohibits the individual and the family from progressing in their journey toward the positive and fulfilling future they so rightfully deserve. This is the first step, the first challenge and the one for which many veterans are painfully unprepared, especially when they are medically retired. With this in mind, The Valor Club is located near the heart of San Antonio, Texas, just eight miles away from San Antonio Military Medical Center and the Center for the Intrepid, which provide state-of-the-art care and rehabilitation as part of the Department of Defense’s largest medical treatment facility. The Valor Club is built on the idea that we can, and therefore we must, invest our talents

HOME. It’s where our heart is. The Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas has awarded more than $254 million in Affordable Housing Program (AHP) grants since 1990 across our five-state District. In 2016 alone, $2 million was awarded to assist 4 rental developments in the Lone Star State — with more to come in 2017. All because “home” is at the heart of what we do.

Prairie Village

Investing in the future of affordable housing

Prairie Village El Campo, TX Description of Property: Prairie Village is a charming senior community of 38 one bedroom and efficiency apartments located in El Campo, Texas. National Church Residences acquired Prairie Village in 1989. The renovation modernized the building systems and brought new life to the community. The modernization targeted resident units and included a substantial expansion of the community building contributing to our “Home for Life” program aimed at keeping seniors aging in place. Prairie Village was initially developed under the HUD 202 Section 8 program and renovated by leveraging low income housing tax credits awarded by TDHCA. As you drive into the property you first notice the gorgeous mature trees shading the campus. There are seven single story buildings that host four to six units each and a free standing community center for recreation, offices and laundry facilities. The beautiful pink brick and red front doors contrast nicely with the abundant green landscape throughout the property. The paved sidewalks allow residents and guests the opportunity to explore what nature has to offer and the community garden further encourages enjoying the outdoors.

Tays South Community The apartments offer one, two and three bedroom options for families. High ceilings, in-unit washers/dryers, central heating and air conditioning, patios, outside storage and perimeter fencing are just some of the notable unit features. Residents also enjoy community amenities such as a basketball court, children’s playscape, barbeque grills, picnic tables, clubhouse, and activity rooms for both seniors and children. BGO Architects ensured green standards were incorporated into the building design for Tays South. The units all have Energy Star appliances, including refrigerators, dishwashers, oven ranges and microwaves. Xeriscaping, which reduces landscape water use by 50-70 percent, was also implemented in some common areas. Tays South Community 2114 Magoffin Ave El Paso, TX 79901 Tays South Community features 198 newly constructed garden-style homes for low-income families in the City of El Paso. The development replaces 81 units of the original Tays apartments, one of El Paso’s historic public housing complexes originally built in 1941, and adds 117 units of new affordable housing. Tays South is located in the Chamizal neighborhood in which more than 50 percent of residents live below the poverty line. These new apartments bring quality housing to the El Paso residents who need it most. The development is a significant milestone in realizing the Chamizal Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy, adopted by El Paso City Council, to increase the supply of affordable rental housing in the area. Tays South also moves the Housing Authority of the City of El Paso closer to achieving its goal of rehabilitating or replacing its entire portfolio of 6,100 public housing units. All Tays South units are subsidized; 148 units are covered under a project-based Section 8 contract and the other 50 are public housing units covered under an Annual Contributions Contract. Additionally, 150 units are designated as low-income house tax credit (LIHTC) units. The LIHTC units are set aside at 30, 50 and 60 percent of the area median income (AMI).

TEXAS AFFORDABLE HOUSI NG M AGAZI NE

In addition to providing sustainable, affordable housing, Tays South also offers programs to enrich the overall quality of life for its residents. Property management staff provide social services including quarterly health and nutritional courses, GED prep and ESL classes, weekly exercise classes, and organized youth programs. Social events, such as game nights and potluck dinners, occur bi-weekly. Residents can also use the community center, which is equipped with a kitchen and recreation room, for their own entertainment or private event. The partners who played an instrumental role in getting Tays South, a $30 million development, off the ground were Carleton Development, Ltd., Jordan Foster Construction, Paisano Housing Redevelopment Corporation (PRHC), The Housing Authority of the City of El Paso (HACEP), Alden Capital Partners and Citi Community Capital.

PHRC, a wholly owned subsidiary of HACEP and a 501(c)3 non-profit entity, specializes in managing units that are financed through HOME and tax credit sources. PRHC, the general partner for Tays South, specifically spearheaded the relocation of tenants from the original 81 units that were demolished. They used their industry-leading relocation software and tenant database system to coordinate relocation efforts and ensure minimal disturbance to residents. All tenants retained the right to return to the community upon completion.

Carleton has over 25 years of experience in multifamily development and has developed over 20,000 units in the South and Southwest of the United States. Upon being awarded 2014 tax credits for Tays South, HACEP selected Carleton as co-developer. Carleton worked with Jordan Foster Construction to manage an aggressive construction schedule. Construction for Tays South broke ground in January 2016, and construction on the LIHTC buildings was completed by December 2016 in order to preserve the tax credit award.

Alden Capital Partners has raised over $1.35 billion in tax credit equity since 2011. The company was selected as the equity partner for Tays South and facilitated the investment of $13.55 million in 9% tax credits. Over the last 3 1/2 years, HACEP and Alden Capital Partners have worked together to close five LIHTC transactions and are working to close a sixth transaction, Gonzalez Apartments, in the fall. Altogether, these developments comprise 2,355 units, including the 1,590-unit El Paso RAD I rehabilitation that closed in April 2015.

Citi Community Capital provided construction and permanent financing for the development. Given the aggressive construction timeline, both Citi and the other partners agreed to process two draw fundings per month. Providing more frequent cash flow made Tays South a more attractive project for sub-contractors and helped ensure the project would be completed on time. Description of Property: Tays South Community features 198 newly constructed garden-style homes for low-income families in El Paso. The development replaces 81 residences from the Tays public housing complex, whose units, originally built in 1941, were in poor condition. Type of Funding: 9% low-income tax credits Number of units and Composition: 198 units (mixed) 150 units are LIHTC. Specifically, 66 units at 30% AMI, 29 units at 50% AMI and 65 units at 60% AMI.

Georgetown Square

Georgetown Square 206 Royal Dr. Georgetown, TX 78626 STEELE PROPERTIES LLC SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETES $8.8M ACQUISITION AND REHABILITATON OF GEORGETOWN SQUARE, GEORGETOWN TEXAS Steele Properties LLC is a Denver-based national real estate investment company specializing in the acquisition, rehabilitation and new construction of affordable multifamily rental properties. Steele has successfully completed over $700 million in acquisitions, sales and development activity involving over 50 properties and more than 5,000 units, including over 40 tax credit projects. The company has substantial experience in acquiring underperforming properties in poor condition and renovating them into quality and attractive housing that residents are proud to call home. Steele’s renovation of the Georgetown Square community was just completed in March, 2017. The completion improves the property condition and fulfills Steele’s mission to provide its residents with a safe, clean and comfortable place to live no matter their age, income or ability. Georgetown Square Apartments is a Project Based Section 8 multifamily property comprised of

50

TEXAS AFFORDABLE HOUSI NG M AGAZI NE

eight two-story apartment buildings with 55 units located in Georgetown, TX, approximately 30 miles north of Austin. Georgetown is a quiet city, rich in history, surrounded by open space and was recently voted the city with the Most Beautiful Town Square in Texas. Georgetown, like many cities across the country, continues to be in need of decent, safe, and affordable housing for its low-income citizens. The property was acquired by Steele Properties in 2014 to make much needed upgrades to a housing community in disrepair. Steele was awarded Low Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC) from the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs (TDHCA), resulting in approximately $4.7M of invested tax credit equity from PNC Bank to support the project. The rehabilitation also received support from the City of Georgetown with a $450,000 loan. The renovation featured both exterior upgrades to the property and interior renovations to the units. Steele Properties applied ecofriendly construction practices and sustainable development throughout this project including working with local waste disposal and recycling companies to recycle materials being disposed of during construction.

A recycling program was also introduced for the residents. Steele installed energy efficient appliances and fixtures to conserve water in all apartments, as well as Energy Star rated HVAC systems and ceiling fans. Exteriors to the buildings received colorful new siding, an upgraded parking lot, as well as LED lighting for improved safety and security. New amenities include an updated playground, covered pavilion with grills and picnic tables on newly landscaped grounds. There is a new community center with kitchen, upgraded laundry facility and a computer lab with Wi-Fi access. Handicap accessible ramps and sidewalks were installed and three units were converted to meet ADA compliance standards. Apartments were completely upgraded with new kitchens and bathrooms, new doors, new windows with blinds, and new paint. Arleen Brosch, Community Manager, commented: “The renovations have made a huge impact on our Georgetown Square community. Residents are grateful for their renovated units and appreciate the updated amenities. We have a program for our children on Thursdays, sponsored by the First Baptist Church, and they love the new pavilion, as well as the new playground.”

Georgetown Square residents are thrilled with the renovation, giving positive feedback: Douglas Powell told us, “I really appreciate everything that was done for us. I have lived here for a long time and this place looks great now. I love the new colors and all the renovations.” Sharon Flemmons commented: “We here are all excited about the new appearance and our new apartments. You have made our homes beautiful.” Mattie Thomas stated, “It is so nice to have a laundry room that is taken care of and I, for one, intend on making sure it stays that way for all of us.” Annette Cooley said, “The place is so nice and I feel privileged to be here and call this my home. I also enjoy the fellowship that new activities bring, especially over the last few weeks.” Steele Properties is thrilled that its residents are now proud to call Georgetown Square Apartment home.

Palladium Aubrey 500 E. Highmeadow Road Aubrey, Texas 76227 Palladium Aubrey provides Denton County residents with high-quality, affordable living options with amenities unlike any others currently available in Aubrey, Texas. Situated on 8.5 acres just north of the fast-growing Highway 380 corridor, the garden-style, mixed-income community is designed to meet the housing needs of residents at every life stage. Composed of five three-story buildings, the 150unit development can accommodate individuals and families with one-bedroom, two-bedroom and three-bedroom options ranging from 741 – 1,189 square feet.

Palladium Aubrey offers residential options priced at 30 percent, 50 percent and 60 percent of the area median income (AMI), as well as market rate units which comprise 33 percent of the unit mix. In recent years, the Highway 380 corridor has secured a large volume of new business opportunities, and this unprecedented growth has

attracted individuals from across the nation who are eager to fill the region’s labor needs. As the number of residents increases, so has the need for affordable housing options. By investing $17.7 million into creating a balanced community with amenities appealing to all ages, Palladium Aubrey received a great deal of support from City leaders and residents. The property was also well-received by potential residents. Applicants eagerly awaited Palladium Aubrey’s opening, and early leasing was an immediate success. There was a waiting list of 126 applicants when the first 30-unit building opened in March 2015, with 94 units already assigned. By the end of August 2015, the property was fully occupied. With its roots in the high-end, market-rate sector, developer Palladium USA brought the same level of superior design, high-quality material selection and eye for detail that is used in the company’s high-rise assets.

Each residence also features a gourmet kitchen with granite-style counter tops, designer cabinets, large pantries, stainless-on-black appliances, multi-cycle dishwashers, microwave ovens, double stainless steel kitchen sinks with garbage disposals, frost-free refrigerators with ice makers, and full-size, self-cleaning ovens. Each unit is designed with a bathroom easily accessible from a common hallway, and guest bathrooms are upgraded with stand-up shower stalls.

Another factor that elevates the quality of life at Palladium Aubrey is its strong sense of community. Features such as a clover-shaped, resortstyle pool with a hot tub, barbecue pits, cabanas, an outdoor playground, an indoor playroom, a pet park and a clubhouse help to foster engagement among residents. Two social events are also hosted each month to encourage neighborly interaction.

In an effort to recognize the hard work of students residing at Palladium Aubrey, and to support their pursuit of a higher education, the property awards an annual $2,500 scholarship to a deserving Aubrey High School senior through the Aubrey Education Foundation.

While 12 of the units are offered at market rate, 102 are restricted to residents who earn between 30 percent and 60 percent of the area median income or less. In addition, six of the units are set aside for Special Needs residents. The rents for the 102 restricted units will range from $353 to $1031, which is significantly below market value for the units. BBVA Compass provided more than $28 million of financing for Glenwood Trails II, including a $14 million construction loan and $14 million of equity investment through NEF utilizing the federal Low-Income Housing Tax Credits program, which gives investors a dollar-for-dollar tax credit for investing in the construction, rehabilitation, and preservation of affordable rental housing for low and moderate-income households. The tax credit was created by Congress in 1986 to encourage private investment in affordable housing projects, and those investors are held accountable for

maintaining the project’s compliance for 15 years. Supporters say the LIHTC program has brought much-needed oversight and private market discipline, with an end result being that lower-income individuals have better choices for higher-quality housing. Glenwood Trails II is emblematic of that. Some of the special design features include nine-foot ceilings, a full-size washer and dryer in each unit, Energy Star-rated appliances, walk-in closets with built-in shelving, built-in desks, crown molding and intrusion alarms. On-site amenities include a pool, grill house, fitness center, business center, children’s activity center, playground, dog park and furnished community room. There are also controlled access gates. Additionally, the property is located less than one mile from necessities such as a major grocery store, pharmacy and bank. The developer of Glenwood Trails II was Kilday Partners LLC and the general contractor and property manager are affiliates of Blazer Building Texas LLC, which has developed more than 30,000 units and currently manages more than 3,000. Glenwood Trails II comes online as attention focuses on the need for more affordable housing options across the Houston area. The Kinder Institute for Urban Research at Rice University

estimates there are 215,000 to 435,000 households seeking affordable housing in Harris County, yet there are only 90,000 units in Harris County that involve some sort of subsidy. Community Development Capital team The BBVA Compass Community Development Capital team was involved in hammering out the details on the Glenwood Trails II deal. The team has closed more than $350 million in loans and another $400 million in equity investments in the past two years, accounting for more than 3,000 units of affordable housing being developed or preserved across the bank’s footprint.

The team’s work supports the bank’s five-year, $11 billion commitment to create opportunities by lending, investing, and providing services to lowand moderate-income people and neighborhoods. BBVA Compass has already put more than 10,000 LMI families into new homes over the first two full years of the commitment. One of its standout efforts in 2016 was in its community development lending and investments that were designed to boost the stock of affordable housing across the bank’s footprint. It dedicated nearly $600 million to affordable-housing projects in 2016 alone, making an array of investments and loans that eventually will put more than 5,000 units of affordable housing across 34 communities.

HighPoint Family Living

HighPoint Family Living 414 W. Louisiana Avenue Dallas, Texas 75224 With attractive urban design elements, familyfriendly amenities and proximity to shopping and public transportation, HighPoint Family Living in the Oak Cliff neighborhood of Dallas is a model for high-quality, affordable housing that has become synonymous with the redevelopment of the sprawling 48-acre Parks at Wynnewood. Situated on four acres, HighPoint Family Housing is a $26 million, 160-unit development that provides much needed workforce housing for families making 60 percent or less of adjusted median income. When Bank of America Merrill Lynch and City Square Housing made the decision to redevelop the Parks at Wynnewood, they first focused on creating HighPoint Senior Living: 140 new affordable housing units for residents aged 55 or older which was completed in 2014.

64

TEXAS AFFORDABLE HOUSI NG M AGAZI NE

Phase II, HighPoint Family Living, was completed in the spring of 2016 and the residents now enjoy high quality, convenient living with brand new 1-, 2- and 3- bedroom units, a state-of-the-art exercise facility, a business center, a pool, a private parking garage, a children’s play area and a community services room staffed and operated by Buckner Children and Family Services of North Texas. HighPoint Family Living was developed through a public/private partnership, to include the City of Dallas, the Texas Department of Housing & Community Affairs, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, surrounding neighborhoods, City Square Housing, and Banc of America Community Development Corporation (BACDC). Bank of America Merrill Lynch provided the construction loan and arranged for the permanent loan, and Bank of America Merrill Lynch was also the tax credit investor on the development.

“We’re proud to be part of a multi-year publicprivate collaboration that with the neighborhood stakeholders, city, county and state governments – all of which believe in a vision of sustainable growth and expanded economic mobility,” said Darren Smith, SVP for Banc of America Community Development Corporation. “To create a truly successful project, we started by looking through the lens of making peoples’ lives better. Every detail, amenity, support service is here to create positive outcomes that we want to help create for the residents and an economically thriving Oak Cliff community.” A key differentiator that makes HighPoint Family standout is that City Square Housing and Banc of America Community Development Corporation served as co-developers, which required a high level of commitment from both entities. From conceptual design, through the construction process, lease-up and stabilization, both partners worked diligently to create a development that the families living there could be proud to call home.

hew, what a year! First off, let me say that I am proud to have fought the good fight in trying to remove the politics (in the form of letters and resolutions from politicians) from the tax credit application scoring process, as well as trying to provide consistent property tax appraisal methodology for our industry — but it just wasn’t in the cards for us this Legislative Session. What did us in? Ironically, politics. This session, personalities and extreme positions took center stage as good legislation like the bills we supported fell by the wayside. I personally think TAAHP should try to get these issues passed again in the next session for 2019, but those following me on the leadership ladder will have that decision to make. I stand ready to be a foot soldier in whatever capacity I can assist in, when the time comes to try and charge up that hill again. On the positive side, we did get HB 3574 (Collier-D, Ft. Worth) passed! This bill eliminated the school rating system from scoring, freeing up thousands of parcels of land to be submitted competitively going forward, starting in the 2018 cycle. Without that very subjective scoring system from TEA in the mix, our industry can bring housing to some of the areas of the state that need affordable housing the most! Working with house sponsor Representative Nicole Collier on this effort was a true pleasure. Rep. Collier is well-informed and very knowledgeable and educated on the issue. She “gets it” that providing new, high-quality affordable housing actually HELPS low-income students perform BETTER in school. She understands that allowing us to build tax credit communities in those lower performing school attendance zones is part of the SOLUTION for those under-performing schools, NOT part of the problem. Of course a thank you also goes out to Chairwoman Carol Alvarado for giving the bill a hearing on short notice and helping to lead the discussion to get the bill through her committee. On the senate side, our long-standing friend to the tax credit program Senator Jose Menendez was once again our champion on this issue. He respectfully and relentlessly got a hearing for the bill, spoke eloquently at the committee hearing and then educated his colleagues on the need for this bill.

Thank you Representative Collier and Senator Menendez for you efforts in helping provide much needed new, highquality affordable housing for some of the lowest income children in the state of Texas! I’d also like to commend and thank our staff and outside lobbyists, especially Todd Kercheval and Crystal Ford, for their valiant efforts in trying to get our identified legislation passed. I came up several times to testify and/ or meet with legislators this session and Todd and Crystal made sure my time was spent valuably. Throughout this process we made some new friends in the legislature and helped shed some light on our program for many in office that were not as familiar with the tax credit program before the session started. You might be surprised at some of the stories they could share about the machinations of the House and how some Representatives who in the past did not maybe quite understand how important what we do is for the state of Texas, worked behind the scenes to try and help promote and push for affordable housing! Also, I’d like to thank everyone who participated in Rally Day for coming to Austin en masse and making it our most well-attended, and I think, most productive Rally Day we’ve ever had. It really made a difference in visiting with some of the Reps and the Senators to see that a strong constituent or two from their own district showed up to weigh-in on affordable housing issues. I cannot emphasize enough how important it is to let our own elected officials from back home know about affordable housing initiatives and where we stand on them. Finally, I’d like to say a word or two about our Government Affairs Director and President-elect Nicole Flores. I am so happy to hand this office off to her. She has spent her entire adult life in the affordable housing industry and she has been involved and on the board at TAAHP as long as anyone in the history of our association. She is educated and articulate and I was so glad to have her by my side in many office visits this past session. We are lucky to have Nicole take this on as almost a full-time job over the next year... thank you Nicole and thank you TAAHP for a wonderful time and great ride as your president this past year!

It really made a difference in visiting with some of the Reps and the Senators to see that a strong constituent or two from their own district showed up to weigh-in on affordable housing issues. I cannot emphasize enough how important it is to let our own elected officials from back home know about affordable housing initiatives and where we stand on them. Finally, I’d like to say a word or two about our Government Affairs Director and President-elect Nicole Flores. I am so happy to hand this office off to her. She has spent her entire adult life in the affordable housing industry and she has been involved and on the board at TAAHP as long as anyone in the history of our association. She is educated and articulate and I was so glad to have her by my side in many office visits this past session. We are lucky to have Nicole take this on as almost a full-time job over the next year... thank you Nicole and thank you TAAHP for a wonderful time and great ride as your president this past year!

TEXAS AFFORDABLE HOUSI NG M AGAZI NE

ver the last 25 years of my career, we have witnessed extraordinary change in the affordable housing industry. I have seen the Low Income Tax Credit Program in Texas grow from a virtually unknown and vastly underutilized program in the early ‘90s to becoming an economic powerhouse creating 773,726 jobs and 262,510 affordable rental homes across the state since the inception of the Program. There have certainly been industry ups and downs during that time, and pricing for tax credits along with interest rates have fluctuated wildly over that past quarter century before reaching historic levels in 2016. And yet even with all this progress, we now find ourselves again under the assault of uncertainty in the underlying investment market and the future of proposed cuts to many federal housing programs. These very pressures all come at a time when the affordable housing crisis is at its peak in most areas of the country. Yes, we have an affordable housing crisis in our country of epic proportions. However, in one way or another, all of the programs we rely on to continue to provide quality affordable housing development across the state are threatened with reduction, elimination or in the case of the tax credit — which is so dependent on the rhetoric and final outcome of tax reform — just general uncertainty in structuring and pricing new developments. In addition, increases in development and construction costs, in some cases driven by recent, proposed changes to immigration policy which has a disproportionate impact on markets in Texas due to the subcontractor base consisting of a large percentage of undocumented workers, have added to the challenge of creating quality affordable housing. In fact, demand still outpaces the production of affordable housing supply across Texas by thousands of units as rent growth for market rate units in the major Texas cities has averaged 10% per year for the last six years. We are facing a crisis in affordable housing like never before. The good news is that the visibility of the affordable housing issue is higher than ever, and our message is being heard. I recently had the opportunity to visit with Senator Maria Cantwell and listen to her deliver a speech to a small group from the National Association of Homebuilders over dinner. Senator Cantwell is the original sponsor of the Cantwell Hatch bill and the leading force to convince Senate Finance Committee Chair Orrin Hatch to co-sponsor the largest potential increase to the tax credit allocation formula since the program’s inception, along with other critical enhancements. Listening to the Senator and her passion and strong knowledge of the housing crisis facing our nation, reminded me how important it is that we never cease the process of educating our political leaders, that we look for champions to spread the affordable housing message at every juncture, and that we continue to invite

politicians and other local officials to our grand openings so they can see the difference that quality affordable housing can make to their home communities and constituents. As the incoming President of the TAAHP Board, I am excited by the opportunity to work with my fellow Board members in the search for a new Executive Director in the wake of Frank Jackson’s retirement. I am also honored to help chart our strategic course in moving forward as the leading advocacy body for affordable housing in Texas along with continuing the important national presence we have enjoyed through the political activism of many of our members in Washington, DC and in other states. TAAHP has always been a “big tent” organization, and I feel it is more important than ever that we join together with all of the constituent groups focused on the creation of affordable housing options in both rural and urban areas of Texas. As we all see daily in our cities and towns, Texas is booming. Many sectors of the market beyond the traditional energy corridors are expanding and demanding workers and roads and restaurants and most importantly, a place to call home at the end of the day that doesn’t consume more than 50% of their pay. As costs rise, and the political climate can sometimes make planning a challenge, we must look for ways to ensure that new units continue to be built as quickly and as cost effectively as possible to meet the growing need. I ask all of you to renew your commitment to affordable housing advocacy as you meet with peers and old friends at this year’s Texas Housing Conference. The need for affordable housing in Texas and across the country far outweighs the voices of the critics and the NIMBYs, the tireless regulation, the competition and the long nights. Our industry does good work, affordable housing is a cause worth fighting for, and our voices will be heard if we remain active and vigilant in working to enhance and sustain the federal low income housing tax credit and government funding for affordable housing programs. Thank you for the hard work and fighting the good fight.

Moderator: Diana McIver, DMA Development Co., LLC Panelists: Drew Foster, Redstone Equity Partners, LLC; Nathan Kelley, Nantucket Housing, LLC; Dan Kierce, RBC Capital Markets; David Knoll, Ryan Companies US, Inc.

Come learn the basics of the Housing Tax Credit Program from the experts! Participants will learn the history of the program and its evolution over the past 30 years. Our panelists will walk you step by step through the program requirements including resident eligibility, what can be built, how rents are determined and how the program operates in the State of Texas. Our experts will discuss partnership structures, development agreements, joint ventures, legal requirements, and accounting regulations – all in layman’s terms.

Two developers, two deals, two investors. Participants will get an insider’s perspective from two experienced developers on how they select sites, involved the community, and put together deals worthy of tax credits. Two investors, active in Texas, will analyze the deals and provide feedback, allowing the audience to see a tax credit transaction from an investor viewpoint. Join us for this interactive session and learn how to structure your own tax credit deal to merit higher tax credit pricing.

Leveraging Green Incentives to Increase NOI 9:30 - 11:30 Moderator: Ravi Malhotra, ICAST Panelists: Scott Hays, ICAST; Aniko Chu, Churchill Stateside Group Multifamily housing owners looking to increase their profitability and implement capital improvements have access to several lending and financing incentives. Options include MIP reduction from FHA, and green lending incentives from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Property owners can leverage these programs with off-balance-sheet financing (e.g. EPC, PACE, PPA) to reduce upfront investment and complete building retrofits at the lowest possible cost. In this session, attendees will learn how to take advantage of all available incentives for multifamily housing, and how to determine which options are cost-effective for specific projects.

Keys to Successful FHA Loan Applications

An Advanced View of HUD Multifamily Programs (HUD 201)

Getting your HUD Deal Closed (on time!)

Utilizing HUD’s FHA Programs for your RAD Transactions

A nuts & bolts session on FHA underwriting of LIHTC transactions. The panel, made up of local FHA officials and lenders, will discuss specific items that make underwriting LIHTC projects unique. By understanding these details, developers can increase the likelihood FHA will approve their loan application.

Join us for an in depth discussion for experienced owners and borrowers of HUD multifamily developments. Hear from the experts about new developments, emerging trends, and the most upto-date legislative news from Washington. Topics discussed include the HUD budget, MIP, the status of the Section 8 program, Green initiatives, ground leases, PILOTs and local subsidies.

Join this session for a primer on cost control: where has it come from and why, is now the best it will get, what do IRS, HUD and TDHCA plan for the future? Experienced and expert panel members will help you navigate the complex rules you encounter, from pre-development planning through long term asset management. After exploring what constitutes costs to the developer versus to the regulator, the panelists will discuss overall operating costs and place special emphasis on utility costs and allowances.

HUD, RAD, and LIHTC! Learn to strategically navigate the challenges and successfully capture the opportunities necessary for assisting public housing authorities in preservation and redevelopment of their aging properties using the RAD program. Hear directly from HUD, the lenders and the equity providers what is required to create the unique balance to close in today’s debt and equity markets.

Legislative Changes to the QAP

NIMBY/Crisis Management

An Analysis of Legislation Passed to Date on the State & Federal Level

In this workshop, fair housing experts from governmental and private entities will provide their perspectives and observations on Fair Housing Act policies affecting affordable housing. The interactive discussions will focus on such hot topics as design and construction compliance for accessibility by persons with disabilities, and issues involving location of units, including building in high opportunity areas.

This panel offers various perspectives from the leaders in the advocacy and the development communities on the recent legislative session in terms of housing policy. The discussion will review efforts made to introduce new legislation, to soften prior legislation, and to prevent legislation that all on panel view as harmful to promoting housing choice. Panelists will dissect the current drafts of the QAP and multifamily rules and will predict what the competitive landscape will look like in 2018. A preview of TAAHP’s agenda for the 2019 legislative session is also targeted for discussion.

Meeting the local housing needs of our Texas families can often be challenging. The panel participants will share best practices including knowing the law, garnering allies from a broad range of interests, addressing legitimate community concerns and educating elected officials in an effort to avoid lengthy, hostile, and unpleasant public proceedings.

Politics and Affordable Housing. Hear what’s happened and more importantly, what’s to come in Texas and Washington, DC. We will recap the 85th Texas legislative session and discuss the upcoming special session. Find out what we can expect from our Texas legislators in the next few years.

Meeting the local housing needs of our Texas families can often be challenging. The panel participants will share best practices including knowing the law, garnering allies from a broad range of interests, addressing legitimate community concerns and educating elected officials in an effort to avoid lengthy, hostile, and unpleasant public proceedings.

Politics and Affordable Housing. Hear what’s happened and more importantly, what’s to come in Texas and Washington, DC. We will recap the 85th Texas legislative session and discuss the upcoming special session. Find out what we can expect from our Texas legislators in the next few years. Our Washington update will cover tax reform and other issues affecting affordable housing. Finally, we will talk about how EACH of us can work with our state and federal legislators - to inform, to educate and to encourage good legislation for affordable housing.

Washington Wire

Tax reform and the value of tax credits, federal appropriations to housing and community development, rising costs of materials and labor are just some of the issues being discussed in Washington. TAAHP President Bobby Bowling moderates a panel of Washington professionals who have the most recent rumors and facts on items crucial to affordable housing. Joining Bobby for this panel are Tony Alfieri, Managing Director for RBC Capital Markets, JP Delmore, Vice President of Government Affairs with NAHB, David Gasson, Executive Director of the Housing Advisory Group and with Boston Capital, and Beth Mullen, National Director of Affordable Housing with CohnReznick. This is a terrible year to try to make predictions but our veteran speakers have as good an idea as anyone of what is happening now and what will the ramifications be later.

Chief Economist, Real Estate Center at Texas A&M University

Dr. Gaines focuses on housing and land development issues and has 35 years’ experience in a broad array of professional activities, primarily in real estate research and education, urban economics, land use analysis and development and project risk assessment. He has worked extensively with major corporations, developers, investors, financial institutions, and government agencies across the country. His assignments have involved all aspects of real estate analysis, including modeling market potential and economic capabilities, investment and/or development project risk assessments, identifying alternative land uses, financial and valuations issues, site development and construction risks and opportunities and strategic corporate real estate planning.
