Hunt Capital Partners Reaches First Close on New Affordable Housing Fund

Hunt Capital Partners (HCP) completed the initial closing of its new affordable housing fund, Hunt Capital Partners Tax Credit Fund 52, securing $175.3 million to date, with the balance expected to close in the first quarter of 2026. Totaling $277.1 million, Fund 52 will help create or rehabilitate 1,540 affordable homes across 18 affordable housing developments in 10 states nationwide, according to HCP, the tax credit syndication division of Hunt Companies, Inc.

In collaboration with both for-profit and non-profit development partners, Fund 52 will help initiate new construction, rehabilitation, adaptive reuse and historic developments, adding 1,002 units while refurbishing and preserving the affordability of 538 more. Half the affordable housing properties are in low- to moderate-income level census tracts.

“Families across the county face a severe shortage of affordable housing,” said John Lee, HCP managing director of investor relations and funds management. “Fund 52 is helping to meet this critical need by creating homes priced up to 85% below the average market rents for comparable units.”
