SPECIALIZING in Affordable Housing Sales NATIONWIDE.

“The Affordable Housing Group represented us to market and provide a viable purchaser for Norman Towers. Since the marketing of the project, your team was there next to the Seller the whole way. Most commercial brokers disappear after the PSA is signed; your team was there every step of the way, setting up communications and making the transaction as seamless and smooth as it was. John and Jesse should be a standard for all commercial brokers in the industry. Their wealth of knowledge and active involvement in the transaction after the signing of  the PSA was key, and the reason we were able to close two weeks early.  I commend them for their efforts and highly recommend the team.”

The Affordable Housing Group was able to use all its resources and experience to deliver on our board’s wish list. We aimed to preserve the affordability of the partial (58) low-income housing and fully rehabilitate the tower. Previous to us gaining their insight, we had applied for 9% with PHFA with other developers, whereas AHG advised that the best path was a 4% preservation rehab with PHFA. The team’s commitment to Methodist Towers prevented a result of potential sales to a For-Profit investor and residents’ rents from increasing with no rehab. Their guidance allowed for the conversion from partial HAP property to 100% (136) affordable housing units. They helped advise on a very creative solution for our nonprofit board to have the ability to purchase the tower back after 15 years for $1 plus any debt and taxes remaining. This resulted in a successful marketing campaign where other brokers failed to deliver on our goals.
I would recommend AHG’s insight for future transactions as the outcome of our sale exceeded our expectations.

“Working with the Affordable Housing Group was a great experience;  they had excellent follow up and kept us in the loop during every step of  the listing, marketing, and escrow process. As a board, we felt confident  that the team listened to our needs and had a thorough understanding not just of the financial issues, but also of our primary goals. Overall,  the marketing and transaction was very well done and the outcome of  the sale exceeded our expectations.”

“From the beginning, we knew that selling Miracle Terrace would be
tricky due to a multitude of factors that included working with the city, state regulations, and the local housing authority. Having effectively completed  a number of transactions with John and his team in the past, we knew that he had the skills and ingenuity to maneuver through the complexities of this sale and close successfully. Through the team’s customized marketing plan, John identified the optimal buyer that would be able to navigate the political atmosphere and ensure that the goals of the city and HUD were met, as well as our own. John applied his extensive knowledge of the process which was integral in getting us to the finish line and ultimately completing the transaction in a way that was favorable for all parties involved.”

“Our group hired John Nguyen and his team to list two properties for sale. They advertised the portfolio, provided offers from qualified buyers, provided a comparison sheet differentiating top proposals, suggested an excellent attorney, and facilitated the sales process with the buyer, HUD, and attorney. The whole process worked out quite well. John and his team were top notch. From the beginning, John laid out a plan, explained the process, and told us what the final result would be. The process and the final result were pretty much as John outlined. John continually demonstrated considerable expertise in the area of HUD sales and financing. I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to contact John, either by phone or e-mail. John usually answered his phone; if he couldn’t, a call back came quickly. Same with e-mail. Overall, it was really a pleasure working with John and his team. They let you know what to expect and they deliver on those expectations. They get the results you want.”
