Supporting Residential Housing Development

Invest Atlanta assists with the financing of residential housing developments.

Residential Housing Incentives

One of Invest Atlanta’s core competencies is real estate finance, and we administer several loan programs for the development of workforce housing.

Tax Exempt Bond Financing

Tax exempt bonds are issued by the Urban Residential Finance Authority (the Housing Finance group of Invest Atlanta) to assist with the accomplishment of growth in multifamily housing.

Structure

URFA is empowered to issue tax exempt bonds to make below market interest rate mortgage loans to developers for rental housing provided Internal Revenue Service section 142 requirements are met to ensure that a percentage of the rental units benefit low and moderate-income renters.

Each year URFA receives a tax-exempt bond allocation from GA Department of Community Affairs. URFA serves as a conduit bond issuer. Bonds are issued on a first-come, first-served basis based on availability of allocation. There is no maximum amount of bonds that can be allocated to a single development. Eligible projects must be located within the city of Atlanta.

Any tax-exempt bond funds allocated pursuant to this program must be used to provide permanent financing for the development. The allocation is not intended for short-term financing, or “bridge” financing, or any refinancing, which is not the permanent financing for the development; however, it can be used for construction financing and be taken out by another source under certain conditions.

Eligible Developments

  • New Construction or Acquisition and Rehabilitation. Minimum of 75 units and $5MM in Total Development Costs.
  • Conversion of an existing property not being used for housing
  • 40% of units must be set aside to persons at 60% AMI or 20% of units set aside at 50% AMI. See http://www.huduser.org/portal/datasets/il.html for AMI limits.
  • A minimum of 15% of units must be set aside for market rate tenants with no income restrictions
  • Be located within the City Limits of Atlanta

Use of Funds

  • Bond Financing must be at least 50% of capital stack
  • Cost of Issuance financed by Tax Exempt Bonds cannot exceed 2% of bond amount
  • Affordability period is the greater of 15 years or as long as bonds are outstanding
  • Tax-Exempt bonds can be coupled with 4% LIHTC’s & must be enhanced by letter of credit or by a financial guarantee unless the bonds are sold via private placement or the bonds are rated and the project has a HUD HAP contract of at least 15-years
  • Bond Financing can be used for up to 100% of total development costs provided debt supports a minimum 1.20x DSCR.
  • For Acquisition and Rehabilitation, rehabilitation costs must equal at least 10% of the total project cost

Developer Guidelines

  • Developer must have experience commensurate with scope and size of the project
  • Developer must have a successful track record of property management and marketing
  • All workforce units must be comparable in size and quality to market rate units within the same development. Affordability must be disbursed across unit types and floors.
  • Developer must have financial capacity
  • Development must meet sustainability requirements

Atlanta Beltline Affordable Housing Trust Fund (BAHTF)

The Atlanta City Council created a BAHTF to promote the creation and preservation of affordable housing within the Beltline neighborhoods.

Structure

Affordable housing is a critical component of the Beltline development. Grant funds from BAHTF add a necessary, flexible and unprecedented tool to Atlanta’s affordable housing toolkit. These funds can be combined with other affordable housing programs and city incentives and leveraged with private dollars to construct or renovate affordable housing units in the city. The goal of the BAHTF is to create a balanced mix of rental and owner occupied housing units and to encourage the distribution of affordable housing around the beltline.

These grants will be provided to non-profit and for profit multifamily developers offering affordable workforce housing rental units along the Atlanta BeltLine. Grant funds may be used to finance acquisition, construction or renovation of multifamily housing for families at or below 60% of Area Median Income (as defined by the Department of Housing and Urban Development). These grants to developers are enforced by a Land Use Restriction Agreement (LURA). The total amount of the grant dollars may not exceed 30% of the total development costs with a cap of $2 million per multifamily development. The developer is required to obtain additional financing from other sources to complete the development.

Projects involving a combination of nonprofit organizations with for profit partners and investors, adhere to the Atlanta BeltLine Design Guidelines, have affordable rental units for persons at or below 30% of AMI and market to public servants (city, county, Atlanta Public School employees) and City of Atlanta residents will be given top priority.

The program components of the BAHTF include

  • Multifamily Rental Developer Incentives
  • Single Family Developer Incentives
  • Community Housing Development Organizations (CHDO) Set-aside for Multifamily Rental
  • Community Housing Development Organizations (CHDO) Set–aside for Single Family Homeownership     

Grants are available to multifamily, single family and CHDO developers from the Beltline Affordable Housing Trust Fund to finance multifamily and single family developments along the Beltline.

BAHTF dollars will only be awarded to those developments that would not be economically feasible without this public subsidy. The amount of funding granted to a specific development may reflect an award of less than 100% of the requested amount based on the assessment of financial need made by Invest Atlanta and other factors as determined by Invest Atlanta.

Verify that your property/parcel is in the Beltline TAD at gis.atlantaga.gov
