CoreVest Closes $6MM Loan with Freddie Mac Multifamily Pilot Program for Single-Family Rental
NEW YORK and IRVINE, Calif., Aug. 2, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- CoreVest, the leading lender to residential real estate investors, is pleased to announce the closing of a $6-million mortgage loan secured by a pool of 55 single-family rental homes. The properties, located in and around Kansas City, Missouri, are owned by Golden Pacific Capital's GPC Fund I ("GPC"). This transaction is one of the inaugural loans being originated as part of the Freddie Mac Multifamily pilot program for Single-Family Rental (SFR).
GPC identifies homes that are unlikely to be purchased by potential homeowners due to the extensive renovation work required. After updating the properties, GPC rents them to people in the community. "We look for homes where we can add value," said Ian Fisher, co-founder of GPC. "Often times, we invest as much as 20% of the purchase price of the home on the rehab."
"Golden Pacific Capital is currently managing over 250 homes in Kansas City," added Hubert Hultgren, co-founder. "We provide residents affordable places to live with great access to jobs and schools." In this transaction, 82 percent of the units are affordable for families earning at or below 80 percent of the area's adjusted median income.
CoreVest sees participation in the Freddie Mac pilot as a natural extension of its core business. "We financed GPC with traditional blanket SFR term and bridge loan products to help them acquire and rehabilitate properties, and now, we're expanding the relationship as part of the Freddie pilot program," commented Beth O'Brien, CEO of CoreVest. "It's exciting to watch a client grow, especially when they are putting freshly rehabbed assets back into the housing stock."
With Freddie Mac entering the space on a pilot basis, it is expected that liquidity in the affordable market will increase and help drive greater availability of workforce housing. "We were excited to be the first partner for Freddie Mac in the SFR pilot with our wrapped securitization last November," said Christopher Hoeffel, CoreVest CFO. "Loans such as GPC now allow our borrowers to participate directly in the Freddie program."
"We are pleased to fund another transaction under our affordable single-family rental pilot, which is designed to increase the availability of affordable rental housing in communities across the country," said Andrew Tush, senior production manager of Targeted Affordable Housing Structured Transactions at Freddie Mac Multifamily. "The overwhelming majority of the homes in this transaction will remain affordable to working families, and we thank our strong partners at CoreVest for delivering this important housing. We continue to learn from these pilot transactions using our unique position in the market to drive financing towards greater affordability in the single-family rental market."
