Type and Scope of services to be performed:
This request is for $1,500,000 ($13,393/unit) in HOME funds to provide financing for hard and soft costs for the Olin Hotel Apartments (the Olin). The Olin is a five-story building built in 1917 as a hotel and converted to affordable senior living in 1982. The building requires extensive renovation, and all units and common areas will be updated with new finishes and fixtures. The fifth floor, which had been shut off from the rest of the building for decades, will be reopened and five new units will be added. After completion, the property will consist of 112 studio and 1BR units.
The borrowing entity is Senior Housing Options, a long-term provider of housing and services to low income seniors and individuals with disabilities. They will lend to funds to Olin Hotel Apartments LLLP, the single purpose entity that will be the owner of Olin Hotel Apartments. This will be a performance loan with a 60-year term, 0% interest rate, and no payments as long as the project remains in compliance. The borrower has received a 2018 allocation of 4% LIHTC + State credits; the Private Activity Bonds (PAB) will be issued by CHFA. Ten units will be designated as HOME assisted units (four studios and six 1BR units). The 107 existing units in the property are subsidized under a HUD Housing Assistance Payment contract in effect until 12/01/20, which provides rental assistance for very-low income residents. DHA will provide project-based housing assistance vouchers for the five new units being added on the fifth floor.
