  1. The Development ProcessAn Overview • Forming the development concept • Evaluating your capacity and the needs of your community • Evaluating the properties in your community • Feasibility • Creating an experienced project development team • Preparing financial statements and budgets and cost estimates

  2. The Development ProcessAn Overview • Deal Making: Planning and Financing • Identifying financing sources • Financial stability of lead applicant • Project construction • Planning and managing the construction process • Operation • Preparing a long term management plan • Compliance with federal requirements

  3. NSP Eligible Activities NSP is organized according to the eligible activities provided in the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008. These activities provide for a wide array of projects. Applicants can combine activities if necessary to achieve the scope of their project. State’s Plan estimated funding by activity

  4. NSP Residential Financing Program “Establish financing mechanisms for purchase and redevelopment of foreclosed upon homes and residential properties, including such mechanisms as soft-seconds, loan loss reserves, and shared-equity loans for low- and moderate-income homebuyers.” The State’s Plan estimated 15% of overall NSP funds for this activity Types of Projects: • Assist home buyers acquire properties by providing a zero interest subordinate loan or grant to bring down the purchase price to an affordable level. • Loan Loss Reserve • Revolving Loan Fund

  5. NSP Homebuyer Program “Purchase and rehabilitate homes and residential properties that have been abandoned or foreclosed upon in order to sell, rent, or redevelop such homes and properties.” The State’s Plan estimated 20% of NSP funds would address this activity. Possible Project Types: • Acquire and rehabilitate single family homes • Acquire and rehabilitate multi-unit properties for sale (condos, townhomes, etc.)

  6. NSP Rental Program • “Purchase and rehabilitate homes and residential properties that have been abandoned or foreclosed upon in order to sell, rent, or redevelop such homes and properties.” • State’s Plan estimated 30% of NSP funds would address this activity. • Intended for permanent housing • Possible project types: • Scattered site acquisition and rehabilitation of single family homes for long term rental • Scattered site acquisition and rehabilitation of small multi-unit properties for long term rental • Larger single site acquisition and rehabilitation for long term rental • Rent-to-Own models • Special needs housing

  7. NSP Land Bank Program • “Establish land banks for homes that have been foreclosed upon.” • Can not be used for vacant land. • Must have defined geographic area that meets the CDBG national objective of “benefiting low, moderate, and middle income persons”. • Homes acquired must be brought to their end use within 10 years. • State’s Plan estimated 5% of NSP funds would address this activity. • Possible project types: • Acquire homes for later redevelopment, rehabilitation or affordable sale or rental

  8. NSP Demolition Program • “Demolish blighted structures” • Properties must meet definition of blight covered later in this presentation and discussed in State’s Plan. • State’s Plan estimated 3% of NSP funds would address this activity. • The CDBG national objective to “eliminate slum and blight” is not eligible under NSP. • All activities must be tied to benefit low-mod-middle income households. • Area benefit test would be necessary. • Possible projects types: • Demolition of homes to leave as green space to lower the chance of flooding for surrounding homes.

  9. NSP Redevelopment of Demolished or Vacant Property Program • “Redevelop demolished or vacant properties.” • Public facilities are eligible but must provide an “area benefit” to low-mod-middle income households • New construction only eligible under this activity • State’s Plan estimated 10% of NSP funds would address this activity • Possible Project Types: • Single site new construction for sale or rental • Scattered site new construction for sale or rental • Special needs housing / Supportive housing

  10. NSP Eligible Properties The type of property that can be assisted with NSP funds varies according to the eligible activity undertaken. Federally required minimum of 25% of all NSP funds must be used to provide housing for households with incomes at or below 50% of the area median income State has set goal of targeting 40% of NSP funds to assist 50% AMI households. Properties must be residential and have been foreclosed or abandoned in order to meet the 25% requirement, even if that is not required by the activity.

  11. NSP Eligible Properties Cont’d HUD has defined – Foreclosed: “A property has been foreclosed upon at the point under state or local law, the mortgage or tax foreclosure is complete. Title to the property must have been transferred.” Abandoned: “When mortgage or tax foreclosure proceedings have been initiated for that property, no mortgage or tax payments have been made by the property owner for at least 90 days, AND the property has been vacant for at least 90 days.”

  12. NSP Eligible Properties Cont’d Homes: “Any type of permanent residential dwelling unit, such as detached single family structures, townhouses, condominium units, multifamily rental apartments (covering the entire property), and manufactured homes where treated under state law as real estate (not personal property).” Residential Properties: “includes all of the above plus vacant land that is currently designated for residential use, e.g. through zoning.”

  13. NSP Eligible Properties Cont’d Blighted Structure: “A structure is blighted when it exhibits objectively determinable signs of deterioration to constitute a threat to human health, safety, and public welfare.” Further defined by the State’s NSP Plan. State’s Plan allows local laws defining blight to be used or, in the absence of a local definition to use the State’s definition.

  14. NSP Eligible Properties Cont’d Dilapidation Obsolescence Deterioration Presence of Structures below minimum code Illegal Use of Individual Structures Excessive Vacancies Lack of Ventilation Inadequate Utilities Excessive land coverage and overcrowding of structures Deleterious land layout Environmental Clean Up Lack of community planning Total equalized assessed value of the proposed redevelopment has declined for 3 of the last 5 years State’s definition of blight is satisfied by displaying at least 5 of the following characteristics:

  15. Components of NSP Housing Development: Acquisition Strategy Targeting and Site Selection Areas of Greatest Need Community Impact Property Type and End Use Applicants proposing a single site activity should be able to able to discuss location, while applicants proposing a scattered site should be able to discuss target area, type of properties, and availability of those properties, at a minimum.

  16. Components of NSP Housing Development: Acquisition Strategy • Should not acquire property before approval from State • Highly recommended to pursue vacant property only • Property sellers and REO (“Real Estate Owned”) • NOT encouraged to consider eminent domain • Acquisition price must be at a minimum 15% discount from the current appraised value of the property • Current Appraisal • Appraisal must be made within 60 days of any offer on the property • Must be an independent appraisal – property holder’s appraisal is not acceptable

  17. Components of NSP Housing Development: The End Use Homeownership Considerations Market Assessment and Outreach Plan Qualifying Home Buyers Housing Counseling Resale limit Final sale of home to income eligible household must be for less than the total cost to acquire and redevelop the property Home Purchase Financing Lending Requirement http://www.fdic.gov/regulations/laws/rules/5000-5160.html

  18. Components of NSP Housing Development: The End Use Rental Considerations Market Analysis Rent Levels IHDA’s “Schedule of Maximum Monthly Gross Rents for Most Multifamily Programs” Tenant Selection Plan and Tenant Outreach Income Qualifying Tenants Property Management Rent-to-Own

  19. Components of NSP Housing Development : Per Unit Cost Limits • No per-unit limits set by CDBG or HUD rules • State has established per unit maximum by adopting Maximum Purchase Price Limits for Non-Targeted Areas used with IHDA’s first mortgage products • Using the “1-unit New Construction Limit for Non Targeted Areas” • Limit includes all costs of project including acquisition, rehabilitation, redevelopment • Cost of rehabilitation must be no more than 75% of the cost of acquiring the unit • On a per-unit basis for multi-family developments

  20. Components of NSP Housing Development: Construction and Rehabilitation Plan Evaluation of Property Condition Establish Construction and Rehab Standards Cost estimates Construction/Rehab Davis Bacon applies at 8 units or more

  21. Components of NSP Housing Development - Finance NSP funds will be structured largely as grants Will require an affordability period CDBG program income requirements apply State will consider providing 100% project financing from NSP funds Leverage Traditional State resources will be difficult to combine with NSP Bring local resources to the project Acquisition and Construction Financing Bank Financing, Local CDBG, HOME Proceeds from Resale Private and pool financing Foundations and local grants End buyer financing - IHDA

  22. Affordability Requirements

  23. Development Budget Acquisition costs Construction/ Rehabilitation Capitalized Reserves Holding / Carrying Costs Contingency Soft Costs Components of NSP Housing Development - Finance • Development Fees • Developer Fees • Maximum of 12% • Project Delivery • Administrative Fees

  24. Components of NSP Housing Development - Finance Operating Budget Projected Income + Residential rental income + Commercial rental income - Rental vacancy Operating Expenses Taxes, insurance, utilities Property management, maintenance Operating Reserves Debt Service Feasible projects will be self supporting

  25. Components of NSP Housing Development – Property Management • For Sale developments will need to address how properties will be managed for holding period • Long term rental projects should use experienced project managers with existing policies and procedures • Scattered site projects, likely under NSP are notoriously difficult and expensive to manage
