Mention HUD financing to apartment syndicators a couple years ago…they would laugh at you. Today, many syndicators are not laughing. Those adjustable-rate loans need additional capital (like a fish needs water) from their limited partner investors to purchase expensive interest rate caps; so numerous syndicators are exploring different refinancing options. Fannie & Freddie are good options, but many syndicators are “changing the narrative” to hold the property longer until the market improves. A HUD loan could be a better option with a 35-year fixed term and lower debt service coverage to qualify. Listen to this important discussion on HUD financing in today’s market.

“Survive to '25- that’s 2025!” That could be the most important lesson from today’s podcast. In the beginning of 2022, many apartment investors were geared up to be very aggressive in buying buildings. Low rates, plenty of capital (debt & equity), & great inventory to buy. Then…At the end of the first quarter…. BOOM. The industry slowed down. I mean stopped. Inflation. Higher Interest Rates. Slowing economy. Rising Cap Rates. Less Sellers. Less Buyers. Equity was difficult to raise. Larger down payments were required. A complete 180 from January. WOW! Today…beginning of 2023; What should you do? Stay invested? Buy more? What are the challenges, and the opportunities investors are faced with today. You need to listen to what industry insiders are saying…it could save or make you money.

Santa Claus has his famous “naughty list” for bad boys and girls. No toys this year…just coal. Today, Fannie Mae - thru their DUS lenders- have a similar ‘list’ that tracks the bad and good multifamily operators. If you are on this list; called the “A Check” you may have difficulties in getting another loan from Fannie Mae. Why is this important today? Because many apartment operators recently (in the last 24 months) have originated high leveraged, non-recourse bridge loans that were supposed to be sold after the rehab, rents raised and then projected NOI being much higher OR refinanced into a Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac loan. Today… you could have a problem to sell if your NOI didn’t go up significantly or your sponsor didn’t realize that they were on the “A Check” on a previous Fannie transaction that had a problem. Don’t get coal from Fannie Mae. Listen to our conversation with two DUS loan servicers. Are you interested in learning more about how Multifamily Syndications work? Please visit www.spiadvisory.co

RETRADE 2.0 could be happening now with rising interest rates. Interest rates have risen significantly over the last 6 months. Can you remember what short term rates were in October 2021?

Apartment values that initially changed in May-June 2022; are changing again. Buyers that are under contract today…are considering re-trading to a lower purchase price with the seller because rates have been going up even higher than 90 days ago.
