Anyone active on the GP/LP side of affordable housing? If you have funded or developed any of these deals, please feel free to share your experience or thoughts on profitability, risk, or unique structures.
I figure it's a long shot but I am trying to get my hands a 4% LIHTC Bond financial model. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Interested as well
From an LP perspective - we have found proprietary (one-off) deals to be the most bang for your buck, but I have noticed that there a lot of dogs out there and you really need to know what you are investing in.
Off the tope of my head, these are some of the first things I glance at when given a deal.. Debt Make Up- One big thing to take notice of is the capital stack on the debt side, often these deals have a lot of soft debt, which is generally a good thing, but eats away at any residual that you would have. The 4% deals typically get a lot of the losses through interest deductions so higher leverage gives you better return (which is typical, but different mechanics at work here) but there is a higher risk of foreclosure..
Developer Fee - the developer fee should always be delayed to some amount of time that makes you feel comfortable about them having skin in the game
Reserves - you want reserved to be set up to carry the property for at least x vacancy for x amount of time (typically through your compliance period)
I have a 'underwriting an LiHTC deal' guide book that I can share if you would like...
Are you able to post a copy of that book here, or PM me? I would greatly appreciate it.
I would also be interested as well since I am pretty new to the affordable space. Thank you!
Interest as well, if you can send along
Ditto everyone else.
I would also love to get my hands on this guide book if you don't mind sharing.
Great stuff. Please send if possible.
I would also like a copy if you could send that.
I ended building a 4% bond model from scratch. Any of you guys on the GP side working as developers or is it mainly syndicators on here? If you are on the GP side, what states are developing in?
I am working in the Texas market
I used to work on the GP side for a developer, and did a short stint on the lending/equity side as well... I mostly worked in awful markets that couldn't support debt - we made our niche putting together deals with very little or no debt. That strategy allowed us to collect a lot of fee by going after markets others wouldn't touch and thus a high success rate on LIHTC applications. We also did a lot of consulting, application prep, and turnkey for non-profit housing providers. Bonds weren't much of an option for our strategy, sorry.
I got out of affordable and work for a boutique RE equity/private debt firm now. The money is better, you don't have to deal with bleeding hearts, and your income is based on your ability to figure out a deal, not the mood of government employees. It did get me through the recession though.
You are correct that a lot of deals are drawing on a reserve during the last few years of operation, however there is certainly still value in the property and after the compliance period the property can be converted to market-rate OR (more likely scenario) be re-syndicated and get capital infusions all over again..
I'm interested in the LIHTC underwriting book also
I'm interested in the guide book as well. Thanks
The guide book was posted a few weeks ago under 'Affordable Housing Docs'
Can you provide a link?
Bumping this. Would appreciate if you could share the link.
Thanks!
