HUD-Insured Loans

It may be common knowledge that the Department of Housing and Urban Development is the source of the apartment industry's most affordable, longest-term, best-leveraged, fully amortizing, non-recourse, assumable financing. Unfortunately, due to perceptions of insurmountable red tape and lengthy closing times, many people believe that HUD loans aren’t worth the trouble. As a result, many multifamily investors never even consider what could be their best source of financing. In contrast, the reality is this: Besides being grossly misunderstood, HUD-insured loans are some of the greatest and most underused tools in the industry.

Non-recourse. Fully amortizing. High leverage.

Our team exists solely to help others secure HUD-insured multifamily financing. To do this, we provide clear and realistic expectations, a well-communicated timeline, and easy-to-understand requirements. This allows us to successfully work with multifamily investors who have never considered a HUD or FHA loan. We also work with owners and developers that may have unpleasant experiences with intermediaries or lenders that may not have been a great fit. We partner with industry leaders and investors that fund billions of dollars in loan volume per year. As a result, we know the strengths and weaknesses, the niches, and each team's ability to execute. Our underwriting is always a deep dive, and hiccups are thoroughly avoided through clear communication and rigorous work on our end. In brief, we are experts in arranging FHA-insured loans for market-rate, affordable and senior multifamily properties, providing certainty of execution to every client.
