 Building Equitable Communities: Advancing Racial Equity through Affordable Housing Impact

10:35 AM - 11:00 AM ET

Opening Keynote

Multifamily has been perhaps the most coveted of asset classes over the past several years, and interested investors have faced stiff competition for deals. The current market volatility has presented an opportunity to buy at reduced prices, become a joint venture equity partner and help fill capital stacks. How are savvy investors timing the cycle and determining when to invest, and which markets are yielding the most opportunity? What are some of the strategies private equity firms are deploying today to add multifamily to their portfolios?

This conference panel will explore the intersection of affordable housing, racial equity, and community impact. It will bring together experts and thought leaders to discuss innovative strategies and best practices for promoting racial equity within affordable housing initiatives. The panelists will examine the challenges faced by marginalized communities, highlight successful models for achieving racial equity in housing, and discuss the broader impact on community well-being. Through engaging dialogue and shared experiences, the panel aims to inspire actionable steps towards creating more inclusive and equitable housing solutions.

As a recession looma, the creation and preservation of workforce and affordable housing communities are more critical than ever. Hear from those providing affordable housing capital and solutions as they discuss the current headwinds to expanding the nation’s affordable housing stock— including a rising rate environment and escalating construction costs— and how they are overcoming them. The panelists will address current public/ private investment activity and appetite, community impact funding initiatives, effective tax incentives to promote development, and capital raising activities.

The Elephant in the Room: Looming Loan Maturities and Refinance Risks

With rising interest rates, the market has seen a significant reduction of commercial real estate lending activity in the past year, and the increasing cost of debt coupled with market uncertainty are causing a transaction slow down as well as issues for borrowers with upcoming loan maturities. Not all borrowers have the flexibility to hold off refinancing until rates stabilize or decline, so what does the current market environment mean for borrowers in a refinancing crunch today, with limited options and time pressure? With a large number of multifamily loans securitized in the CLO market with shorter loan terms, what are the likelihood of those loans being refinanced today? How are savvy borrowers filling capital stacks until their lending options increase, and how are they approaching loan extensions and modifications with their existing lenders?
