Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, which operate under the Federal Housing Finance Agency’s Duty to Serve Plan, have made financing workforce housing a central component of creating more equitable and sustainable access to quality rental housing. With a wide range of programs and incentives now available, investors have been increasingly securing stable and valuable opportunities, which can also improve the lives of cost-burdened middle-income professionals.

Unless an 11th-hour agreement is reached, a political impasse over budget legislation for the next fiscal year will trigger a federal government shutdown. Starting October 1, 2025, many non-essential federal government operations could potentially be limited or suspended, but most multifamily financing activities will not be disrupted.

Construction Completed
An experienced developer of luxury single-family rental (SFR) communities had begun construction on a 250-unit luxury build-to-rent (BTR) community in San Antonio, TX, poised to be the largest community of its kind in the metro. To continue construction velocity, the borrower was looking for ground-up construction financing to fund the development, with the goal of refinancing to a permanent agency loan once construction was completed and the property was stabilized. At the time, there were limited financing options in the SFR space. The borrower reached out to Arbor for assistance due to the strong relationship and previous successful projects together.
