Loan purposes are typically predevelopment, acquisition, and/or construction for single-family and multi-family housing, neighborhood revitalization and community-based facilities, as well as working capital. Loans are underwritten by staff and approved by the Loan Fund Committee of the board. NeighborGood Partners, as a short-term lender, seeks investments and loan participations for capital to lend.
