Upcoming Trainings

RESTRUCTURING & REFINANCING
AFFORDABLE HOUSING PROJECTS

Robin Boyce, the Housing Development Center
Leon Laptook, Community Development Law Center

June 19, 2008

 

While we’re reluctant to admit it, sometimes projects don’t perform as planned. This workshop will explore what can be done to assist existing underperforming properties. It will address planning and managing restructures and refinances of property, including planning and financing anticipated or unanticipated capital improvement projects.

The training will include:

  • Assessment of properties operations, including occupancy and financial performance, performing a review of existing debt terms and market constraints, and strategies to assess capital improvement needs and reserves.
  • Developing a restructuring plan- including asset/property management changes, rehabilitation needs and refinancing options.
  • Developing disposition policies and strategies.

The training is targeted towards more experienced housing development and asset management staff who have already have basic knowledge in reviewing financial information and loan documents on projects.

Trainers:
