These questions are so hard, since I don’t know where you are. What I know is you are no where near me (I am outside of D.C.), as a SLUM would not be $180K per unit – let alone for five. Start by calling the local housing authority. I bet they can put you in touch with your state housing authority, who may have special below market interest loans for you. If they can’t help you with a special deal, they should be able to refer you to someone to do a market rate loan for this project. Good luck.

You should be able to find such a lender by going to your apartment house association in your local area. they normally have a list of lenders that fund loans such as the ones you are looking for.

You can also find an apartment house lender by looking in your local telephone book. Look for those that specialize in apartment lending.

Now if these units need up keep and rehab and will not appraise to $180,000 until repaired that might be a different problem all together.

I hope this has been of some use to you, good luck.
