ULI Los Angeles: What is Affordable Housing?
"What is Affordable Housing” will illustrate the complexities of developing an affordable housing community.
The conversation will begin with a macro-level discussion of the challenges that all affordable housing developers confront and solve -- site selection, entitlements, financing, construction, and ultimately lease-up.
This will be followed by a deeper dive into affordable housing communities that were recently completed or far along in the development timeline.
Save your space in this Webinar to listen to experts in housing and real estate finance as they bring insights as to LA's housing.
