NEW YORK CITY — Greystone has provided a $97.6 million HUD-insured loan for the refinancing of Villa Hermosa, a 272-unit affordable housing complex in East Harlem. Built in 1910, Village Hermosa offers one-, two- and three-bedroom units that are reserved for households earning 50 percent or less of the area median income. Eric Rosenstock and Jeff Englund of Greystone originated the nonrecourse loan, which carries a 35-year term and a fixed interest rate, through HUD’s 223(f) program. The borrower, Metropolitan Realty Group, will use a portion of the proceeds to fund capital improvements, including upgrades to unit interiors and building utility systems.
