KeyBank Provides $65M in Financing for Affordable Housing Property
KeyBank Community Development Lending and Investment (CDLI) provided $16.6 million in low-income housing tax credit equity, a $21.3 million construction loan and a $6.3 million taxable equity bridge for the construction of Silos Apartments, a new affordable housing high-rise building in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Cleveland-based KeyBank’s Commercial Mortgage Group originated a $20.5 million privately placed forward committed rate-locked permanent loan. KeyBanc also secured and sold $21.3 million in Utah Housing Corporation Multifamily Housing Revenue Bonds for the transaction. The project sponsor, Blaser Ventures, is an affordable housing developer based in Salt Lake City.
Silos Apartments will provide 180 apartments consisting of 60 studio units, 100 one-bedroom units and 20 two-bedroom units. The development will also include a separate garage financed by the Catalyst Opportunity Fund.
Kortney Brown and Jeremiah Drake of KeyBank CDLI structured the financing for the transaction. Hector Zuniga of KeyBank Commercial Mortgage Group facilitated the permanent loan placement, and Sam Adams of KeyBanc Capital Markets underwrote the tax-exempt bonds.
