Our Services
"Recap Advisors added tremendous value to recapitalizing our Arastradero Park property. They asked all the right questions, arranged the new financing that was best for us, kept the transaction moving, kept me calm and informed, followed up on everything repeatedly and pleasantly, and cleaned up all the loose ends afterward. The result was a new $8 million loan, over $52,000 in annual savings on our mortgage payments, and a significant renovation of the property."

Transactions
Make the right buy, sell, and recapitalization decisions to increase the value of residential real estate
Real estate portfolios should be actively managed. At any given time, the value of a portfolio can be increased through selective disposition, strategic acquisition of new assets, or refinancing or restructuring of individual properties. Transactions can increase or maintain property and portfolio value.
Recap maximizes the financial health of residential real estate
Since its founding, Recap has successfully completed over $2.5 billion in financial transactions on over 736 properties from coast to coast. We have structured, negotiated, and executed the acquisition, disposition, or recapitalization of residential real estate developed under a wide array of affordable housing programs as well as mixed-income and conventional properties.
Owners of both regulated and unregulated housing have many of the same concerns. But affordable housing owners have a range of additional worries and constraints.
Owners of affordable property face specific problems
| Regulatory hurdles | Use restrictions define affordable housing. Any transaction must take a complex set of regulations into account. |
|---|---|
| Community and government stakeholders | A variety of stakeholders have an interest in the fate of the property. Owners need to communicate with all stakeholders and manage the often complicated dynamics among the parties. |
| Inflexible timing | Regulations impose timing constraints. Most transactions must occur at exactly the right time to achieve optimal results. |
| Complex partnership issues | Many affordable housing investments were structured more than 20 years ago and the partners have developed divergent interests over time. Interests must be aligned before effective transactions can be made. |
