The financing, provided by Churchill Mortgage Investment LLC (“CMI”), supports the development of a three-story building offering a mix of one- and two-bedroom apartment homes. All units will be income-restricted at 60% of the Area Median Income (AMI), ensuring affordable housing options for senior residents in the region.

Ben Goates, Vice President, Director of Originations for CSG, said, “What an honor it is to work with such an incredible sponsor as Fairfield Homes who has been dedicated to serving the residents of Central Ohio for generations. We’re thrilled to participate in the inaugural round of the State of Ohio Low Income Housing Tax Credit program by providing this uniquely effective forward-committed loan product for The Reserve at Hunter Trace, which includes a 40-year amortization, 1.15 DCR, 3 years of interest-only payments after stabilization, and the ability to size to greater proceeds upon conversion.”
