Completion milestoneA 1960s-era Section 8 building facing substantial deferred maintenance and at risk of losing HUD affordability designation. The owner — a local CDFI — needed a full gut rehab of all units while maintaining occupancy and preserving resident stability.
HeroBricks delivered a phased 18-month renovation that kept 72% of units occupied throughout construction, coordinated LIHTC equity financing alongside a CDFI bridge loan, and achieved ENERGY STAR certification on completion.

Below-market rate renovation financing for projects maintaining affordability covenants. Underwritten to mission impact as well as financial metrics.
