@aussieflya@DPOURBABA Hardcosts would only change if a source required prevailing wage or local hire. Also the unit mix might have to change to accommodate large family and increase hardcosts TDC but in my opinion kinda fakely.
@busgus@SukritGanesh Well if you haven't noticed it's not that high and it's basically all affordable which has a drastically different financing structure and return
It's likely the very reason this man's church hasn't been renovated since 1949 is because if they made reasonable improvements to the ramp or entryway they'd lose their grandfathered-in status, trigger the ADA, and be forced to install eye-poppingly expensive elevators
We are warm and safe and well fed but going on 24 hours without power in the Richmond and still don’t have an update from @PGE4Me on when we can expect it to be restored. Tried to have patience at the start but this is outrageous.
The building is funded by tax credits purchased by an investor at a discount in some cases 70 cents on the dollar.
Your bank funds affordable housing, and gets a rich profit to do so.
Affordable housing does not mean subsized. It simply means a regulatory agreement has been enforced on the property to limit the rents to a certain AMI percentage. The surrounding renters are not offsetting these limits either. /1
@Derrick_NOLA very hard to know
but it goes to show a lot of statistics that show 'median rent' in the city are misleading, if we have a significant number of housing units that are subsidized
I mean you can blame the city but high level each year that would require roughly $26 Billion in investments in construction costs and $9 in other costs. The top 3 GCs generated only 12B in revenue
@CaseyMericle@SinaiLawFirm All you have done is shifted the ground lease negotiations to the building sale negotiations. If they don't like the terms of your internal agreement they will walk away.
Not to mention of the building owner differs maintenance now you got a liability instead of an investment.
