Housing Finance/Accounting

The key to affordable housing production is filling the gap between what housing costs to produce or manage, and what low-income households are able to pay. As experts in affordable housing finance, Partnership staff find ways to place essential funds in affordable housing projects at the right time. We have created and managed a number of housing finance programs to meet the development, rehabilitation and home ownership needs of home buyers, neighborhoods, individual communities and metropolitan areas.

We currently manage several down payment assistance and rehabilitation loan programs that either help make the dream of home ownership come true for lower-income households, or help them maintain their homes. In addition, our experience includes creation and management of multimillion-dollar capital pools to provide low-interest loans, equity investments and forgivable loans. We have also designed and managed programs that financed housing development, rehabilitation and energy conservation measures for developers, investor-owners and individual owners.

On a smaller scale, we assist financial institutions in meeting their Community Reinvestment Act targets, and we guide developers through the process of securing specialized kinds of project financing such as Low Income Housing Tax Credits and Historic Preservation Tax Credits.

Finally, the Partnership offers accounting services on a contractual basis to other nonprofits, equity investment partnerships, loan funds and others. Our accounting staff have experience in all aspects of nonprofit accounting. In addition, creating systems for our development program has made us proficient in development accounting for lower-income housing projects.
