CLEVELAND, July 25, 2023 /CSRwire/ – KeyBank Community Development Lending and Investment (CDLI) provided a $4 million construction loan, $6.3 million in Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) equity and arranged permanent financing with a $10.1 million Freddie Mac TEL for the acquisition and rehabilitation of Salem Manor, an existing family affordable housing project that was at risk of being converted to market rate housing in Salem Oregon.

The project sponsor, Hampstead Development Partners, Inc., is an experienced developer focused on the development, acquisition and rehabilitation, and operation of affordable properties. KeyBank previously provided the acquisition bridge loan for resyndication for Hampstead to acquire and preserve this property.

Hampstead will immediately begin a $4 million rehabilitation of the property, which will include modernization of kitchens and bathrooms, full ADA accessibility upgrades to select units, upgrades to the buildings electrical system to ensure tenant safety, the addition of a fitness center and full exterior upgrades (windows, paint, siding, roofs) to select buildings that remain in original condition.

The project offers 64 total units for families and individuals earning no more than 60% of the area median income (AMI) and is subsidized by a Section 8 Housing Assistant Payment (HAP) Contract. The 10-building property is located on the eastern side of the City of Salem in a mixed-use neighborhood with major shopping, schools, and recreational amenities located nearby.

John Paul Vachon, Matthew Haas and Hector Zuniga of KeyBank CDLI structured the financing.
