LOS ANGELES — Walker & Dunlop has arranged a $28.9 million loan to refinance Billy G. Mills Manor, an affordable housing community in Los Angeles. Walker & Dunlop’s Jeff Kearns and Laura Woltanski arranged the loan through HUD/FHA’s Section 223(f) loan program on behalf of Watt Capital Developers.
The community features 102 units supported by a Project-Based Section 8 Housing Assistance Payment (HAP) contract covering 100 percent of the residences. The refinancing also supplies funding for approximately $30,000 per unit for planned renovations, including roof replacement, new windows and sliding doors throughout the property. The transaction closed simultaneously with a 20-year renewal of the property’s Section 8 contract.
