M&T Realty Capital: What’s the latest in seniors housing finance?

by Sarah Daniels February 20, 2020

At MBA CREF, M&T Realty Capital’s Sean Huntsman met with reporter Nellie Day to discuss the trends he’s seeing in the multifamily and seniors housing sectors. One big takeaway: The current market demands flexibility and diversified lending. M&T Realty Capital Corp.’s lending platform is allowing the company to both succeed and expand — they had a record 2019 in terms of loan production for healthcare and seniors housing sectors. In addition to a robust pipeline of multifamily and seniors housing construction loans, M&T is also working with owners/operators who are stabilizing assets and recapitalizing equity. However, Huntsman is seeing the impact of high labor and constructions costs and some overbuilding in certain markets, indicating that stakeholders need to look closely at demand on a market-by-market basis.

TD Bank: Practical Steps to Promote Affordable Housing

by Sarah Daniels February 19, 2020

2020 looks like it will be a record year in terms of delivery of multifamily units, according to Gregg Gerken, Head of U.S. Commercial Real Estate with TD Bank. But how much will Class A continue to dominate the market? “There is a movement toward rent control. Affordable housing is an obvious pressure in the industry,” Gerken says. Entitlement and construction costs mean that developers have focused on Class A projects and LIHTC-supported affordable housing projects. “But much more emphasis will have to be placed on workforce housing and Class B new delivery. There is an unmet — and almost unlimited — demand in that space,” Gerken says. The question is: can the industry influence government — especially local government — to change entitlement processes to encourage development of more affordable housing? Watch the interview for Gerken’s insights on affordable housing development. This video is posted as part of REBusinessOnline’s Finance Insight series, covering MBA CREF 2020.

Hunt Real Estate Capital: Growth Opportunities and Concerns in 2020

by Sarah Daniels February 18, 2020

Chad Thomas Hagwood of Hunt Real Estate Capital discusses growth opportunities in 2020 and the different drivers that make for a positive atmosphere, especially in secondary and tertiary markets around the country. Previously overlooked areas offer more opportunity to develop and less competition. Many secondary and tertiary markets are seeing corporate growth and increasing populations, which is driving more demand for multifamily housing. Limits on development include construction cost, scarcity of labor and shortages of materials, but uncertainty over the upcoming election is also keeping investors wary of planning too far in advance. People are waiting on the sidelines to see what happens, with some investors waiting until after November to create their four-year plans. Watch the video to hear more about what Hagwood expects to see in 2020. This video is posted as part of REBusinessOnline’s Finance Insight series, covering MBA CREF 2020.
