One of the most critical issues affecting Ohio families and their communities is the lack of quality affordable housing solutions. That’s why we work with the dedicated ecosystem of developers, lenders and other stakeholders committed to solving this generational problem.
Governmental and quasi-governmental entities have recognized this crisis and continue to fund and promulgate various financing programs to further incentivize for-profit and non-profit developers to create affordable housing. These public/private financing partnerships have driven significant development in recent years and federal, state, and local governments are continuing to expand and increase funding for such programs as the need for housing still remains unmet. Kegler Brown is proud to represent both for-profit and non-profit developers and lenders in all aspects affordable housing development, financing, and advocacy.
As one of the most experienced law firms in all of Ohio focused on affordable housing issues, Kegler Brown represents developers, LIHTC syndicators, underwriters, commercial banks, community banks, government agencies, and tax credit providers throughout the lifecycle of affordable housing development and financing.
Our profound experience spans various aspects of the development process, ensuring that projects are legally sound, effectively financed, and securely protected.
