Introduction
My focus
I represent investors and syndicators in structuring complex real estate and affordable housing transactions that qualify for tax credits, involving multiple layers of public and private financing, including FHA-insured loans, tax-exempt bonds, nonprofit and government grants, and federal and state rental subsidies. I conduct the necessary due diligence and draft the equity documents to safeguard our clients’ interests efficiently and effectively.
My prior experience includes representing developers on a broad range of affordable housing and community development transactions. I also worked at the D.C. Housing Authority where I gained substantial experience with various real estate matters, including closing low-income housing tax credit (LIHTC) projects converting under the Rental Assistance Demonstration program and/or receiving other rental subsidies.
Looking ahead
In light of legislation fixing a 4% credit floor for LIHTC projects financed with tax-exempt bonds and a growing need for affordable housing, I anticipate an increase in affordable housing projects. I look forward to helping clients navigate their closings and invest in communities nationwide.
