Funded a Fannie Mae DUS Multifamily Affordable Housing (MAH) loan for La Herencia Apartments. The 160-unit multifamily property received $3.255 million for nonrecourse MAH refinancing. The deal was structured under MAH Preservation Tier III, with a 12-year fixed-rate term on a 30-year amortization schedule. Matt Norman of Arbor’s Dallas office originated the loan. 

“Through Arbor’s diligence and commitment to develop customized solutions, we were able to structure terms that were equitable to all parties. The creative intelligence at the beginning of the process was paramount to a successful transaction,” said Norman.

Funded a Fannie Mae DUS Small Loan in East Point, Ga. for Parkside at Camp Creek Apartments. The 486-unit multifamily property received $21.7 million for refinancing. The deal was structured with a 7-6 ARM product on a 30-year amortization schedule. Ryan Duff of Arbor’s NYC office originated the loan.
