1 How to Construct Public Private Affordable Housing Partnerships IHCDA/ IAHC sponsored Indiana Housing Conference Wednesday, September 27, :10 am 12:00 pm Indianapolis, IN Bruce Frankel, Professor Urban Planning

2 Navigation How to determine the appropriate subsidy How to structure the subsidy to return program income, and realize the sustainability of an affordable housing program My experience in making such programs work 2

3 To Innovate & Discard Myths Myth A. The price of housing is gateway to affordable homeownership B. Reliance on the developer for the gap in financing is necessary & sets the subsidy C. Affordability ignores the debt structure of the household D. Affordability set at 80% of AMI is affordable to moderate income households Innovation A. Non amortizing junior debt allows affordability & sustainability through program income B. The grantor can calculate the minimum subsidy for the private developer & also be the developer, saving 22% of development cost C. Cannot, as in front and back end ratios for mortgage underwriting D. It is 100% unaffordable [average 65%] 3

4 Frankel s Relevant Experience 1. Co founder of Fair Share Housing in N.J.: Mt Laurel I and II 2. Housing & Community Development Director for a consortium of an urban county and 22 municipalities; awarded by HUD 3. Private developer for 20 years on mixed income residential [Developers Remedy] and nonresidential projects 4. Consultant to governments, including IHCDA, & production home builders 5. Taught this for the other 27 years of my career 4

5 PART 1: DIY Public Sector as Land Redeveloper and General Contractor 5

6 Precursor: Public Sector performs Local CDBG/ HOME Office as Developer & GC Saves 1. Developer 12% 2. General Contractor 10% 3. Over bids with developer collusion [bid fixing] 4. Cost of monitoring above [hidden corruption GC & Trades] Staffing Features 1. Determination of household eligibility and subsidy 2. Cost estimators [+/ 10% rule] 3. Trades bidding 4. Inspections of scope of work Cost of staff corruption in collusion with Developer or Trades either way 6

7 PART 2: Calculate & Apply Minimum Subsidy Public Sector on Same Terms as Private Developer 7

8 How to Calculate the CDBG/ HOME Junior Mortgage Calculated as givens of the model 1. Qualifying Household Income 2. Cost A&D [acquisition & development] 3. Calculate & Set Affordable Down Payment & Mortgage [FNMA] Calculations of the model 4. LESS Maximum Qualifying Private Mortgage 5. EQUALS Required 2 nd Mortgage CDBG/ HOME [or other source] 6. Account for Maximum Debt Load [ front & back end debt ratios ] 8

9 Home Ownership 1. Feasible down payment 2. Feasible Front & Back end Ratios 3. Affordable Monthly Housing Payments 4. Affordable Amortization Structure [cf. home price] 5. Cost to Develop Homebuyer or Tenant Developer or Landlord Rent 1. Affordable Monthly Housing Payments 2. Utility Allowance 3. Affordable Contract Rent 4. Cost to Develop 5. Cost to Manage in Operation 6. Landlord Profit Underwriting the Minimum Subsidy More affordable & more costly to subsidize per common scale 1. Ownership 2. Rent 9

10 Notes in Underwriting 1. income precisely set for qualifying household 2. Use FNMA [or equivalent] underwriting standards for ownership and rental 3. Some subsidy sources assists middle income households [see HoTIF & #4 below] 4. Pursue developer subsidy [market affordable] as the mixed income solution 10

11 A Word on the Economics Principle of Locational Equilibrium Locational equilibrium achieved when no one has an incentive to move e.g., in hedonic regression with strictly locational factors Beach houses rent for $500/ week more than interior vacation houses Retail or apartments at a transit stop rents 1.5 times than along an arterial with no transit Median value of homes in Carmel $284,000 in 2014 [$201,400 in 2010; new homes on the market in $385,000 and $1,400 to rent] cf. to Median value Muncie at $75,000 [same in 2010] 11

12 Median Values [2015] 701 W. Ashland Ave., Muncie $75K Autumn Woods Ave., Carmel $285K 12

13 It s the location factor [external amenities over internal amenities] 620 2nd NE Ave., Carmel $690,723, $172/ s.f., ¼ AC, $691K/ AC Arts & Design 5408 W. Deer Run, Muncie $590,841, $85/ s.f., 1.6 AC, $92K/ AC updated 2012 Carmel: closer to DT price up Muncie: further away the better 13

23 Assumptions of Both Ownership & Rental Models 1. This is my model, but all assumptions follow the standards utilized by the U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development [HUD], the Federal National Mortgage Association [FNMA, or Fannie Mae] and state authorities in this field of providing affordable housing. This is how affordable housing is underwritten. 2. All scenarios are mixed income housing, where the opportunity for developer subsidies from market rate dwellings for the affordable, or set aside dwellings are presented. 3. The costs of land acquisition and development are based on my experience as a land developer and particularly with mixed income projects. Land costs are 6 fold in Carmel than in Muncie, development costs are higher as well [although one could argue why], and market rate units are bigger and with upgrade finishes over their affordable set asides as reflected in costs. 4. Significantly, affordable standards are designated as a proportion of Area Median Income [AMI], and, as prescribed by HUD, here based on the counties of Delaware and Hamilton, despite locations in the cities of Muncie and Carmel.
