CPC Mortgage Company LLC Delivers $9.6 Million FHA Loan to Refinance Two Rent Stabilized Properties in East Harlem

CPC Mortgage Company LLC, a subsidiary of the Community Preservation Corporation (CPC), announced the closing of a $9.6 million Federal Housing Administration (FHA) loan to refinance two rent stabilized, multifamily properties in Manhattan’s East Harlem community.

“Anybody can do an off the shelf deal. Our customers bring us their most challenging projects, because they know they’re getting an experienced partner that will be with them every step of the way,” said Tim Deegan, Vice President and Head of Agency Originations at CPC Mortgage Company LLC. “Being able to help our borrower achieve his financial goals, while also ensuring that these two buildings continue to contribute to the health and vitality of the community’s housing stock is something we’re extremely proud of.”

The two six-story walk-up, mixed-use rent regulated buildings located on East 116th Street were constructed circa 1920 and consist of a total of 52 rental units. CPC’s FHA Section 223(f) product allowed the borrower to refinance both properties at a more favorable rate, and fund standard repair and maintenance work. The property will also enter into an Article XI tax exemption with the City of New York, helping to ensure that the project remains financially stable and well-maintained, with rents staying affordable to the current tenants.

“With FHA Section 223(f) we were able to get our borrower the best terms for his two rent stabilized properties, and equally as important, it was a product that worked with the unique requirements of the City’s Article XI tax abatement,” said Deegan.

CPC Mortgage Company LLC is licensed by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) as an FHA approved Multifamily Accelerated Processing (MAP) lender, providing access to loan programs on an expedited basis and providing capital for refinancing, acquisition, rehabilitation, and new construction of multifamily housing.

While offering products for a broad range of capital needs including flexible bridge loans, with strong ties to the parent company and its nonprofit mission, CPC Mortgage Company LLC has unique institutional expertise in affordable, stabilized housing and small buildings/small balance loans.
