Marking Dunn Development Corp.’s first year 15 acquisition, resyndication and mod-rehabilitation project, this $50.6 million transaction provided renovations and system upgrades to a struggling and deteriorated portfolio that had not seen significant capital investment since its original gut renovation twenty years ago, while preserving affordability for current and future residents. Using financing from a mix of tax-exempt bonds, low-interest loans, and equity investment from the new syndication of tax credits, the developer provided new roofs, windows, and energy-efficient heating systems, upgraded apartment kitchens and bathrooms, installed security cameras and completed façade repairs and other building improvements. A number of the units in the portfolio are designated for formerly homeless families, with CAMBA, Inc. providing social services from an on-site office.
