UniDev uses its proprietary financial analysis models to detain and test financial assumptions formulated during the strategic planning phases; our staff works with numerous financial tools and institutions to broaden the options available to our client’s financial needs and then determining the optimal combination of financing vehicles. The options presented depend upon the ownership and funding mechanisms used; these can range from tax-exempt bonds to a combination of commercial debt and equity to tax-credit funding. Where appropriate, off-balance sheet alternatives are considered.
UniDev tailors financial tools to provide the lowest financing costs possible; these can include:
- Lines of Credit or Bond Anticipation Notes (BANS) for predevelopment expenses.
- Long Term Ground Leases for projects and cost control.
- Tax Increments financing for the installation of projects infrastructure.
- Tax-Exempt Bonds, Commercial Construction Loans and/or New Market Tax Credits for project construction.
- Tax Abatements to lower the cost of renting as well as home ownership.
- Project-funded Direct Subsidy Programs to assist moderate-income individuals in achieving home ownership or to qualify for renting an apartment.
