Red Stone Equity Partners Closes Largest Multi-Investor LIHTC Fund Offering in its 15-year History

NEW YORK, July 20, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Red Stone Equity Partners LLC ("Red Stone Equity" or the "Company"), a privately-owned real estate finance and investment company specializing in affordable multifamily residential funds and financings, announced the closing of Red Stone Equity – Fund 95 Limited Partnership ("Fund 95"), a $233-million multi-investor Low Income Housing Tax Credit ("LIHTC") investment fund. Fund 95 is the 18^th and largest Red Stone Equity multi-investor fund offering to close since the Company's inception and includes investments from nine different institutional investors, six of which are repeat Red Stone Equity investors and three of which are first-time Red Stone Equity investors. Fund 95's proceeds will be used, along with other project-level financing sources, to finance the construction and/or rehabilitation of more than 1,700 units of affordable rental housing contained within 24 properties located in 12 different states. The Company had an exceptionally strong first half of 2022 in raising nearly $650 million for its various affordable housing investment funds.

"We are pleased to announce the closing of our largest multi-investor LIHTC fund to date, which includes investments from six repeat Red Stone Equity investors and welcomes three new investors into our family of LIHTC funds," said Stephanie Kinsman, Red Stone Equity's Managing Director of Investor Relations. "The closing of Fund 95 comes at a time when affordable housing is desperately needed. According to 2020 data from the American Community Survey, approximately 46% of renter households are at least moderately cost-burdened (spending 31-40% of income on housing), and 24% of renter households are severely cost-burdened (spending 51% of income or more on housing). Today, we are seeing unprecedented increases in rents, and the current state in inflation is making the situation even worse for many hard-working people in the United States. Red Stone Equity remains as committed as ever to doing its part to help alleviate the growing affordable housing crisis."
