TD Bank Provides $6M Redevelopment Loan for Affordable Housing Apartment Complex in Charleston

CHARLESTON, S.C. — TD Bank has provided approximately $6 million for the renovation and rehabilitation of 100 affordable housing multifamily units in Charleston’s Ashley River submarket. Lori Swan of TD Bank structured the five-year loan with a 25-year amortization schedule on behalf of the developer, The Hampstead Group. The loan will be used to renovate the apartment units at Palmilla Parkside, previously known as St. Andrews Gardens, to provide housing for moderate-income residents. The original apartments were built in the 1970s as low-income housing and recently fell into disrepair. As part of its planned remodeling, Hampstead will install energy-efficient windows, plank flooring, stainless steel appliances and other upgrades in this community. Construction began in January 2015 and is expected to be complete within the next 15 months.
